Thomas
Tuchel Sends Message to Chelsea Squad Ahead of Premier League, FA Cup and
Champions League Run-In
Chelsea
can’t afford to rest heading into the final five games of the season, insists
head coach Thomas Tuchel.
With the
2020/21 campaign coming to a close at the end of the month, Chelsea still have
plenty to fight for; on the verge of sealing a top four spot as well as two
finals to play against Leicester City and Manchester City in the FA Cup and
Champions League final, respectively.
Tuchel’s
side have three league games left against Arsenal, Leicester and Aston Villa,
as they edge closer to European qualification following their 2-1 win over Man
City on Saturday evening.
The German’s
impact at the club since arriving in January has been impressive. Quite the
turnaround which sees the Blues as a real threat and on the verge of their,
arguably, best season since the 2012 Munich triumph. But Tuchel isn’t letting
his side take the foot off the pedal just yet.
What
Thomas Tuchel said
“It feels
like every game is a decisive game because, in all competitions, we have to
fight hard to fulfill our goals, to reach our goals and dream.
“We take
it how it is. It is not a disadvantage and I like the atmosphere and spirit.
The context of the games is that we are constantly under pressure. The team is
living up to it in an impressive way and we have to keep on going.
“Now that we have caught this momentum and worked
so hard for it. Our job is not done in the FA Cup, Champions League or Premier
League. We are in the middle of it and have to keep on going.”
