Thomas Tuchel names the ‘best player on the pitch’ for Chelsea after Arsenal defeat

Well, there are literally zero positives to take from Chelsea’s final pre-season game of the American tour this summer.

At a stretch there was one, and Thomas Tuchel managed to find it at the end of a fiery and frustrated post-match press conference after being thrashed 4-0 by Arsenal in the early hours of this morning.

The defeat was embarrassing for Chelsea, despite it being just a pre-season friendly. Arsenal had the right attitudes, they were not treating this like a friendly. But Chelsea, carried on from where they left off last season, with lacklustre and clueless performances across the whole pitch. Questions marks over the boss too, but he has a right to be frustrated with the lack of effort across the pitch.

However, let’s draw upon that one positive, and it was new signing Kalidou Koulibaly, who got his debut in a Chelsea shirt last night.

Despite only playing for 25 minutes, Tuchel says he was the best player on the pitch for Chelsea, as reported by Football London.

  1. Chelsea just have to get their acts together. This kinda performances are not expected fr om them this new season

  2. What a disappointing match!
    How can Arsenal defeat Chelsea four goals to nothing? Were the players sleeping or what? I believe N’golo Kante the midfield comander didn’t play this match. Mr Thomas should know what he is doing this season. You allowed Rudiger to leave the club and you are telling players who won three trophies for you to leave. If you want to bring in others players, you shouldn’t sack you key players. This have shown that, we die hard supporters should not expect any trophy this season.

    1. Calm down it need time for this changes of squads to bring positive outcomes
      And dont crush gunners they deserved wat they got

  3. I’m enjoying your program
    Can I always each Chelsea update he

  4. I think it’s a start and the players have now realised that they are still down in their performances on the pitch so I think they start putting more effort more so at the finishing point cause Chelsea strikers are not that much sharp

  5. Hmm can say we have a horrible performance defender is not our problem it striker problem let improve in our forward just keep calm on back nothing do us
