Chelsea on 'first step to bigger things' but 'not good enough' from Man Utd

Mauricio Pochettino said Chelsea were on the "first step to bigger things" after Sunday's win against Bournemouth secured European football for next season.

Moises Caicedo's superb strike from his own half along with Raheem Sterling's finish earned Chelsea a 2-1 win and sixth-placed finish in the Premier League.

Chelsea have currently qualified for a place in the Europa Conference League but if Man City win the FA Cup would enter the Europa League instead.

Newcastle United will have to wait on their European fate, knowing seventh will earn them a place in the Europa Conference League if Manchester City win the FA Cup.
