The Blues were 3-2 winners at Nottingham Forest.
Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino says he wants to stay at the club for the long term after clarifying recent speculation about his future.
“I never said I am not happy. It is a normal headline and sometimes too much honesty, talking. It is not a problem. “I am always a coach who is thinking long term. All departments must be happy for us to be a good team to compete. I still have one more year in my contract and I am thinking to be here.”
Reece James returned for the first time since December and immediately set up Jackson’s winner and Pochettino believes the England defender could be fit for Euro 2024. “He is doing well in the training session. After four or five months it is not the same to train as to compete, but, if he has the possibility to compete in the next two games if his coach in the national team believes he can go to the competition, I think he will be ready.”Forest had looked set to seal their top-flight status with a win, but they are still all but safe from relegation.
