Chelsea Can’t Keep Giving Up Leads – Tuchel

Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel has come out to react to the dropped points vs Everton. He recently revealed that his players simply threw away several big chances in the game.

According to him, it is always frustrating to see his team give up leads in important matches, and everything boils down to not killing games off.

Tuchel added that it is clear CFC missed a lot of players, big personalities, and regular starters in the game, but that is no excuse.

His words, “Yes, of course (it is frustrating) to give away another lead. If we see the effort we bring in a match like this, the effort we need to score one goal and the effort the opponent needs to score an equaliser – it is hard to swallow.”

“We missed big chances to get the result in the first half and second half we did not find the rhythm consistently and tried to bring on some energy from the bench, but it was hard. We had the lead and give it away with one free-kick.”

“Football is almost never like one reason why things go this way, but one big reason is for sure the chances we missed today. We could have been two or three up and were playing with fire.”

“It is obvious we missed a lot of players, big personalities, regular starters, but we will not use it as an excuse.”
