Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino admits that he would love to win a trophy at the club.

The Argentine did not win any trophies during his impressive spell at Tottenham in England.

Now he wants to right that wrong and win the Carabao Cup, as Chelsea take on Newcastle United in the quarter final on Tuesday.

He told reporters: It means more for the people than us. It means a lot because we want to deliver the job for our club. Delivering a trophy, the most important thing is to win.

It's difficult to measure, it is a priority. It's in our mind, our objective, we need to be ready tomorrow to be closer to winning a title. We need to fight, we need to be aggressive, to follow our last game in the way we behave and improve in the way we play and to have the capacity to fight for every single ball."

He then added on winning a trophy for himself: I don't know the answer, you need to be in the right club, in the right moment with all of the elements to win.

To be an elite manager, it's not necessary to win titles, to many elite managers still didn't win or are going to win or won. It's important to analyze every single project and say you can progress or not or deliver the job everyone expects. It's important, more than us, for the club because it's going to be a boost an energy and I really believe in the project."
