Second part is fair, but first could be said about pretty much any winning side (Drogba, lamps, Eden...).
Even if Tuchel did not have that one game winner, he did have a number of WC players who just tuned up for that run (Rudiger and Kante to name 2).

That is true, but those sides were playing at a much higher level. .

I actually think Tuchel first 6 months was great team football. From GK all the way to the attacking trio Werner, Havertz, and Mount were playing good football. More was needed out of them, but it is amazing to me how he completely moved away from that trio that just won a CL, and following season they hardly played together.

Sack this fraud already.

How is he still employed ?

[Special Juan 28,096]

He hasn't got a clue and he is playing a game now, it's like he's testing the patience of people.

Said he wants 5 years to get Chelsea up there. Fuck off with that

Yep. Even then, 5 years and some of these muppets like Mudryk, Noni, Jackson will still be not good enough for a team of this level. Or not for starting anyway.

Poch likely saying 5 years because the ownership have always been talking about the long term though. And the sporting directors seem to be of that mentality.

It’s a shambles from top to bottom.

I will still give him next season with a better defense. I will like to see how he does. 

Because scoring goals we are doing that now, something we had problems before. But it's holding unto leads that is the problem, so a better defense will help with that.

Same was said about Lampard. He was given Silva , Chilwell and Mendy, defence was still chaotic because the whole team was disorganized.

Like we are seeing now.

Sorry for the DP, but I'd say the midfield is still a bigger concern than the D for me. And although the goalie has been doing well for his age and experience, we should do without such qualifiers every time we talk about our starters.

There is a reason both Chelsea and United can't control matches.

Damn right it's the central midfield thats the problem. Total lack of experience there and can't believe why this is often overlooked.

Buying a world class CB can help, but our piss poor game management, and lack of control over the centre of the park has led to so many embarrassing results, with easy wins turning into draws.

Even if Enzo & Caicecdo eventually fulfil their potential, today they are collectively a clownshow.

Next season we need to sign an experienced, decent (not necessarily WC), CM to help control matches.

Funny thing is. He's probably repeating what Egh-boehly told him.

Which means he might actually believe it right up to when he gets sacked in 3...2...1... 😆

No mate. The players just aren't good enough to control the midfield against the worst team in Premier League history since Derby 08. 

[robsblubot 3,595]

The issues aren't mutually exclusive.

 

[MoroccanBlue 5,375]

Too right you are.
