Mauricio Pochettino has urged Chelsea to follow Manchester City's example to allow him to succeed at the club.
The former Tottenham Hotspur boss takes charge of his first Chelsea game on Sunday when Liverpool travel to Stamford Bridge. It has been a big summer of change for Chelsea, who have been active in the transfer window with incomings and outgoings.
Pochettino has warned that patience will be needed as he aims to implement his philosophy at the club. He used the example of Pep Guardiola and City as an example of how patience can lead to success at a club.
“If that is the impression on social media with the fans or people outside Chelsea, then we need to change that," he said. "Now it is also about working to create a different vision and for the people to trust in the club again. This happened with [Jurgen] Klopp, and it looks like it is with Mikel [Arteta] at Arsenal.

"I need to work, we need to work, and then it is not my decision if Chelsea want to be in a similar situation like Liverpool, Arsenal, or Manchester City now.”
