His team have had an inconsistent season.

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino says he has had enough of the "stupid rumours" surrounding his future at the club.

The 52-year-old joined the London club on a two-year contract with the option of a further year last May.

Chelsea have had a mixed season, with some dreadful results mixed in with moments of real positivity - including Thursday's win over rivals Tottenham Hotspur.

Pochettino says the decision over his future will be made by those higher up at the club, and for now he is focused on the job in hand.

Speaking ahead of Sunday's game against West Ham United, Pochetinno told BBC Sport: "Enough about the stupid rumours.

"You need to ask the club if they want me to keep going or not, not to write things that have no sense.

"We don't know at the moment. I suppose that I have one more year contract and that I am going to be here."
