In his first words as Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino stressed the need for togetherness and one of his first actions has shown he is intent on building that.
After having his appointment as the new Blues boss confirmed at the end of May, Pochettino rocked up to Cobham on Monday July 3 for his first official working day at the club. The Argentine would have likely met the majority of staff at the training base with session to officially commence on Tuesday when many senior stars return.
Formalities and media duties were the order of the day for Pochettino and his first words since being confirmed as the new Chelsea boss certainly gave supporters a reason for optimism. Speaking to Chelsea's official website, the 51-year-old said: "For me, it is a pleasure and honour to now be involved with Chelsea Football Club. We are so excited, and I know Chelsea very well, it is one of the greatest clubs in the world. So of course, it was easy for us to make the decision to move here."
