London — Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said on Monday that Romelu Lukaku should not be made fun of after the £98 million ($133 million) striker had just seven touches in the weekend's 1-0 win at Crystal Palace.
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said on Monday that Romelu Lukaku should not be made fun of after the 98 million pound ($133 million) striker had just seven touches in the weekend's 1-0 win at Crystal Palace. Last Saturday's figure is the fewest number of touches registered by any player who completed the 90 minutes since such data was first recorded in 2003. Tuchel was grilled on how to get the best from the Belgian, who the Blues signed for a club record fee in August, ahead of his side's return to Champions League action against Lille in the last 16.
Thomas Tuchel urged everyone not to mock Romelu Lukaku after Chelsea’s record signing set a record for the fewest touches ever in a full Premier League game.
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel said «it is not the time to laugh about» Romelu Lukaku after the £97.5m striker's recent struggles.
Chelsea’s £97.5m frontman Romelu Lukaku caused quite the stir at the end of last year when he admitted that he wasn’t enjoying the tactics adopted by Blues boss Thomas Tuchel and was missing life at former club Inter Milan.
A Lille side sitting in mid-table in Ligue 1 head to London to face Chelsea this week hoping to play the role of "party poopers" against the reigning European champions, their coach Jocelyn Gourvennec told AFP. Recent Club World Cup winners Chelsea are heavy favourites to beat Lille in their Champions League last-16 tie as Thomas Tuchel's side look to retain the title they won by beating Manchester City in last season's final. Lille already exceeded expectations just by reaching the last 16 of Europe's elite club competition for the first time since 2006/07 and, as they make the short trip to the other side of the English Channel for the first leg, their aim is to keep the tie alive for the return.
Back in December when Chelsea were coupled with Lille for the second time, due to UEFA messing up the last 16 draw the first time, there was general relief around Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admitted Romelu Lukaku’s lack of touches during the 1-0 win over Crystal Palace showed he was “obviously not involved” but insisted everybody is giving their best.
