Mauricio Pochettino admits he is worried about Chelsea's poor record defending crosses ahead of their trip to Everton... as towering Toffees could prove a handful for the Blues

Upset Mauricio Pochettino admits his side have plenty of work to do on their defending from crosses ahead of their visit to the Premier League’s tallest team Everton.

Pochettino branded Chelsea’s current situation as ‘unbelievable’ and insisted they need to improve their organisation and desire after conceding Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay’s match-winning back-post header despite focussing part of their preparation on trying to prevent exactly that sort of situation.

McTominay outmuscled stand-in captain Levi Colwill to score from Alejandro Garnacho’s cross leaving Pochettino facing questions about his side being bullied.
