Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea reveal fatal flaw in Premier League opener

Typical Chelsea. Defending deeply and creating very little on the break, Jorginho's penalty saw him win 1-0.

Before their fans start shedding social his media bile, it is not this reporter who is saying it, but their own manager. After this hollow and almost lifeless victory over Everton,Thomas Tuchel was asked if his team lacked firepower,

} replied:

Said it might be a typical Chelsea match: won 1-0 and Yorji scored on a penalty!” Behind the scenes, says Tuchel, there's an important point. Chelsea's tactics are dictated by a formation centered around his three centre-backs who are experienced but aged and need to play deep.

And he continued. I think Raheem lifts Kai and Mason and Pulisic. However, our formation has 3 center backs and 2 jersey numbers, so it's a deep formation. A deep formation that relies heavily on the two wingbacks. I played with Chilly (Ben Chilwell) today and for me he wasn't ready to start his 100pc but due to the situation with Marcos Alonso and the late signing of Mark Cucurella I would take the risk I had to.

"Reece James is also struggling to maintain full fitness at the moment, so there weren't enough wing-backs on the right wing to give the players on the inside a little more freedom. We'll go from there, but we've got a clean sheet, so change the question.' But it's hard to do. Aside from a half-time penalty taken in stoppage time when his Godfrey suffered a bad injury ten minutes into the game, Chelsea produced little and were almost embarrassed. rice field.

Newcomer Sterling seemed hard-working enough, but was never the focus of a title-chasing attack, and Havertz and Mount were unknowns on either side of him. When Pulisic came out, it didn't go well either. In the Premier League race,Manchester City and Liverpool added hundreds of millions of goalscoring talent, but it was already deadly. looks flawed. And the Chelsea players feel it too. They know that's the difference between them and the top two.

Jorginho scored the winning goal for Chelsea against Everton from the penalty spot

, captain Cesar Azpilicueta admitted that a lack of goals was the reason why they had such a slow pace in third place last season. "If you want to win something, you have to score goals. You have to score goals and you must not allow anything," he explained. "It's clear we've been a little off the top in the last few years. It's been five seasons since we last won the Premier League.

I think we didn't score well and we conceded on half the chances.That's our problem and that's why we finished third, more than 20 points behind Manchester City."At least the visitors are at Goodison. They kept a clean sheet, but that was largely due to Everton's lack of a similar threat up front, with the injured Dominic Calvert-Lewin out for at least six weeks.

Anthony Gordon missed two headers that the absent centre-forward would have surely aimed for, but sub Dele Alli also missed a great chance from just eight yards out. The goal was at the mercy of him. It looks like a long and tough season for both teams unless they can quickly find a goalscorer before the window closes.
