Chelsea have won four consecutive Premier League games to climb up to sixth in the Premier League.

It has been a difficult season for Chelsea, as the Blues were in mid-table for a large part of the season.

However, a late surge in form has seen a dramatic turnaround in Chelsea’s fortunes.

Mauricio Pochettino is a relieved man, as he says that his team can now dream of Europe.

Mauricio Pochettino said on Sky Sports post-match: “It’s always very competitive, the Premier League is the toughest league in the world. Full credit to the players, we fully deserved the victory, that’s why I’m so happy and it allows us to dream to play in Europe next season.

“We need to think about recovery and keep the mentality of going to win and see what happens. The most important thing is belief and performances and the performances and results are really good.

“We dominated from the beginning against a team that’s not easy to play, that’s why we’re so proud and so happy. The evolution of the team is there.”

Chelsea are sixth in the league, and are now set for a Europa League finish, after a difficult start to the season.
