Pochettino to make 22-year-old Chelsea star a starter after what he did against Sheffield United ‘He’s challenging me’

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino was pleased with Benoit Badiashile’s performance in their win against Sheffield United.

The Blues kept a clean sheet for the 2-0 win.

However, the Blues boss will be looking forward to make Benoit Badiashile a starter after another incredible performance from him.

Pochettino said: “I think collectively it was good. Benoit, after long time away because he suffered a big injury, now he’s recovering his feeling and this is good. The challenge for us now is to recover all the players.

“It’s going to be difficult because we had a few injuries last week, and then we need to try to get the best from the squad which has a good balance if they are all fit.

“I am happy because this was important and now we are thinking about Newcastle on Tuesday, an important game to go to the semi-final. Newcastle are a great team but I think we can feel confident.”

Benoit Badiashile could gain his spot on Chelsea first eleven after his stunning performance so far.
