Chelsea manager Di Matteo focused on performances

Chelsea's interim manager Roberto di Matteo is focused on ensuring Champions League qualification for next year. The Blues won 1-0 against Stoke City yesterday, to get Chelsea back on winning ways.

"You can discuss what you want about the past. I'm focused on going forward and getting the team in the right frame of mind to be able to win the next game," said Di Matteo.


The Italian coach seemed to refer to the departure of his former manager, Andre Villas-Boas. Di Matteo then said: "Sometimes during the season, we have to win like this to get the three points.


"It's not always going to be easy and pretty."
