Mauricio Pochettino is a week into his new role as Chelsea boss and already impressing.

On day one he hosted a barbeque to get to know staff at Cobham and last Friday he was officially unveiled. Pochettino has a disarming charm about him and carries plenty of authority. 

I was at his press conference and very impressed by how he answered questions. He also made it clear he's not a manager who demands control. He has very much bought into the Chelsea project and also revealed his interview, as previously reported, was very much a two-way process.

One of Pochettino's first tasks will be to speak to both Mykhailho Mudryk and Levi Colwill. Both players have had a busy summer at the U21-Euros. And Colwill, along with Noni Madueke, return to Chelsea for pre-season as U-21 Euros champions.

Pochettino is keen to get to know Mudryk and work one-on-one with him in order to get him going. Part of the focus will be on integration within the team and encouraging him to be more vocal and culture-orientated.
