Chelsea boss Pochettino have let out a cry for help from the Chelsea owners and he said over a very recent Chelsea team problem

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino admits he wants more signings.

Pochettino concedes his squad is short of senior experience and would like to see new additions immediately.

He said: “What do you think? It is clear that any coach would want to close the squad as soon as possible. If it’s possible, yes bring the player here to the USA. If not, it’s not a problem.

“I’m happy with how we are working in this process to improve the squad. The sporting directors, the board are working so hard to bring the right people and right players and profile to the squad. I’m so happy in the way they are working.

“The ideal world – we can see after if we get that. Maybe we do need, even if we do well in the competition we need 23-24 players. Max 25, keepers included. Less than 25 is better. We need be right and need to be able to choose the player and profile. The balance is important.

“Sometimes you get the balance with less. It’s not that you can’t manage the players it’s that they cant play. Where are they going to get the motivation to play and to train if they are not involved? It’s not going to be easy for them and not fair and we can’t ask them to be happy every day. We cannot blame the players. We need to be clear and to be strong in our decision and be right in the numbers of players if we think there can be injuries or suspended but not so big.”
