Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has said he is “desperate” to lift silverware with the Blues after leading them into the Carabao Cup final.

Pochettino, who won three trophies with Paris Saint-Germain, is yet to claim his first major honor in English football. 

Despite Chelsea's initial 1-0 deficit in the semi-final's first leg, the team made a strong comeback by defeating the Championship side at Stamford Bridge.

“I’m desperate to win a title here,” the head coach said.

 “We won in one and a half years in Paris three trophies and we want to win here. I’m desperate to win. It’s really important for us. 

"We are going to have Fulham or Liverpool, two amazing teams, but now is the moment to believe that we can win. It’s an important step.”
