Pochettino's comments on Chelsea win, Reece James red card, and Mudryk injury

Chelsea manager proud of players for win against Brighton, but concerned about injuries and red card. Focus on winning games.

I am absolutely thrilled for the players, they truly deserve all the credit for the incredible effort we put in, our strategic approach to the game, and the diligent application of all the hard work we've been doing on the training ground. I am filled with pride. Facing a team like Brighton is always a challenge, but we are overjoyed because these three points bring us closer to our goals.

I must admit that I did not see the Reece James red card incident, so I cannot provide my opinion on it. However, it is certainly disappointing for us, as he is a key player and will now miss the next game and a few more next season.

As for the physicality of the game and Mudryk's condition, he is not doing well and we are monitoring him closely. He felt a bit dizzy, and although we used the concussion substitution, he will not be available for the next game. We hope it is nothing serious.

Regarding the incident that I did not witness, similar to the Reece James situation, it is challenging to judge actions that sometimes occur in football matches.

In terms of finishing sixth being considered a success, I am not sure. Throughout the season, I have been discussing this, but it seems like my words do not hold much weight. People are more interested in rumors and other matters. However, for me, the most crucial thing is winning games, despite the challenges we have faced.

This team is not just mine; it belongs to Chelsea. It is not about my style, but rather the style of play that we have developed over the years at various clubs. It is about adapting to the circumstances of the squad and striving to make everyone happy with the way we play.

Nkunku has been through a lot with injuries, but I am delighted to see him perform well and contribute to the team. He needs to maintain consistency and build on his recent successes. I am proud of him and the entire team for their efforts.
