CNN —Chelsea suffered a 3-1 loss to West Ham on Sunday as its new-look team continues to adapt to the start of the Premier League season.
Blues manager Mauricio Pochettino has supervised an overhaul of the squad since taking charge this year, but after two games, he is still searching for the first league win of his tenure.
However, despite splashing the cash, creating an identity in soccer takes time and Pochettino urged fans to stick with the team.
West Ham then found itself a man down after Aguerd was sent off for a second bookable offense after 67 minutes.
Pochettino will hope it’s the perfect fixture to jump-start his tenure at the club, which is in desperate need of some stability.
