Tuchel struggling to find answers for Chelsea form: It doesn’t take a lot to beat us

Thomas Tuchel has lamented Chelsea’s inability to keep clean sheets.

The Blues boss said his team were too easy to beat following Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Southampton.

“We started well in all the games almost but obviously we are struggling with our focus and consistency in matches,” Tuchel said.

“We struggled to find answers and find the way back if things don’t go in our direction. Things did go in our direction today but then we struggled after the equaliser.

“I don’t know if concern is the right word. I absolutely dislike to lose, it is the second time this season and I don’t think it takes a lot to beat us and this I don’t like.

“We try to win matches and the way we do this is something we need to understand as fast as possible. I also don’t understand why we are in this situation with injuries to all midfield.

“I think in the first 20 minutes we created half chances but struggled to score. That is also not brand new for us and that doesn’t necessarily have the consequence you can lose matches, you can win 1-0.”
