Africa-Press – Seychelles. <\/strong><\/span>Chelsea boss, Mauricio Pochettino, has blamed his side\u2019s profligacy for their 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final.<\/p>\n

The Blues dominated most of the game, but failed to convert the chances that fell their way.<\/p>\n

Nicolas Jackson was the main culprit, as he fluffed his lines over and over.<\/p>\n

The defeat means Chelsea will finish the campaign trophyless.<\/p>\n

Pochettino, speaking on BBC One, said: \u201cIt is so easy to explain. We conceded in a moment you should not concede. We were not capable of being clinical in front of goal, we had many chances but we did not score.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think in the game we were a little bit better and deserved more, but it is not about deserving it, it is about being clinical and we were not today.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the missed chances and how to solve it, he added: \u201cI think last Monday we scored six but today we were not capable of scoring even with having maybe more chances and more clear chances to score.\u201d<\/p>\n
