Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino was pleased with their 2-0 win against Sheffield United.
Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson struck, with Pochettino choosing to leave Christopher Nkunku on the bench.
Pochettino said: "I'm very pleased. The performance was good. It's always good against a team who play aggressively with a low block.
"In the second half we changed the position of Palmer and Raheem Sterling, we tried to put Palmer and Mudryk in a better position in front of goal.
"I'm confident, even when we lose. I really believe in the players and the club. Now it's about to use that in the next competition in the quarter-final of the Carabao Cup."
On Cole Palmer, he said: "For me he's a playmaker, a player who can link the team. He's also a player with the capacity to score goals and give assists. The contribution of Cole Palmer from day one has been massive."
On Nkunku, Pochettino also said: "We didn't want to take a risk with him and give him more time for his recovery."
