Mauricio Pochettino urges Chelsea to be 'more nasty' after Blues crush to another defeat at Brentford

Ethan Pinnock and Bryan Mbeumo struck at Stamford Bridge as the home team suffered their fourth defeat in the Premier League this season. The Blues have won just one game at home in the English top-flight this season.

Pochettino's team sit 11th in the table after 10 games and 14 points behind leaders Tottenham. The London team's form will come as a concern to the Argentine coach, who feels they should have capitalised on their dominance against Brentford.

"We need to be more nasty in the last third. We need to be more clinical," Pochettino told BBC Match of the Day. "It's a very young group who need to improve in this area more than any other."

He added at a press conference: "I think the analysis of the defeat is clear because after the first half we should score and we didn't score. It is easy when you dominate and create chances and you don't concede chances and the opponent doesn't cross the halfway line. I think you should score. If you don't score you need to blame yourself and we are going to blame ourselves because we were not nasty or clinical in front of the goal. We created chances but did not score.

"Sometimes you need some luck, you know, to score and after the game changed in the second half but I think we give the belief because we didn't score and the second half, I think we cannot concede these types of goals. It was our mistake. That is why we lose the game."

Chelsea's next game is against Blackburn in the Carabao Cup.
