Mauricio Pochettino has struggled to explain Chelsea's defeat to West Ham but has asked his side to trust in his process to improve the Blues

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino was at a loss for words to explain the Blues’ loss to West Ham as their winless start to the Premier League continued on Sunday.

Pochettino unable to explain Chelsea defeat
The Blues followed up an impressive opening-day draw against Liverpool with a disappointing 3-1 loss in the London derby against West Ham, and Pochettino was confused about how Chelsea failed to win the game despite creating better chances.

The Argentine gaffer said, “We create many chances and we did well in the first half. We should have won the game with our first half.

“In the second half with another isolated action we concede again. To find the space to create clear chances [is difficult] but overall it is this type of game that is difficult to explain.

'You had the possession, you create and maybe you were the better side but in the end you lose.

Pochettino asks team to trust his process
Pochettino further elaborated on his frustration with Chelsea’s defeat against West Ham, and their lack of cutting edge, saying, “It was the frustration when we miss the penalty. We were playing well and we didn't get the reward. We start the second half a little bit with this belief until we started again to play.

“We need to be more strong in this type of situation because we knew West Ham sit deep and counter-attack and set-pieces are really dangerous.

Despite the setback, Pochettino was still adamant about Chelsea’s future and charged his team to trust his process as they look to recover from a poor start to the season.

He said, “Disappointed but this is only the beginning. We need to believe in the process. I think we are going to be stronger and for sure be really competitive.”

After finishing in 12th place last season, Chelsea will be keen for Pochettino’s side to improve on that result after arming the Argentine with an expensively assembled squad.
