Chelsea boss Pochettino: Don't judge me on trophies

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino says he shouldn't be judged on trophies.

Pochettino is yet to win a title in England ahead of Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Liverpool.

"For me, that is not the way to judge a coaching staff," said the Argentine.

"It's about being competitive and winning, but there are too many factors that influence.

"I think [victory on Sunday] is not going to increase my popularity or the way the fans are going to see us."

On Liverpool's treatment of Jurgen Klopp, he added: "Klopp was good before he arrived at Liverpool. Now he's won the Champions League and the Premier League.

"The thing is to be in the right moment in the right club that trusts in you, with the tools and the responsibility to win."
