Everton midfielder Schneiderlin eager to beat Chelsea for Pochettino

Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin wants to beat Chelsea today to help Tottenham boss Maurico Pochettino.

Schneiderlin has the chance to do his old Southapmpton boss a massive favour when Chelsea visit Goodison Park on Sunday.

He said: “Tottenham are the most impressive team I have seen, who play the most ­attractive football.

Mauricio Pochettino is someone who changed my perspective of how I see football and how I looked at myself.

"When I was at ­Southampton, everyone liked him. Everyone likes him now and we still have a good ­relationship. What he is doing as a manager with Tottenham is ­amazing.

“I hope he gets the title – if not this season, then I am sure he is going to get it in the next few years because when I watch Tottenham play, I just say, 'Wow!' It's very entertaining.

“You don't need to be good at maths to know that if Spurs win and we beat Chelsea, it's down to one point. After that, everything is possible."
