Chelsea will continue to fight hard for success, says Tuchel

Chelsea are dealing with British government restrictions on their operations in a professional manner and will do whatever it takes to advance in their Champions League last-16 second leg tie at Lille on Wednesday, coach Thomas Tuchel said. Chelsea's Russian owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned by the government while the Premier League has also disqualified him as a director. Under the terms of a licence issued by the government, Chelsea's operations are limited in scope.

Tuchel said the European champions had to make adjustments in how many staff are travelling and staying in Lille and that such discussions had never taken place before, with an operations team taking care of all their needs. "We have to deal with it. There are new things to talk about, like how to arrive at games.

Things that are normally taken care of," Tuchel told reporters on the eve of the return leg in France, with Chelsea leading 2-0 from the first game. "We have a framework to go to Lille and play in Lille. There will be no excuses.

It's already more difficult to arrange things in the best way possible for the FA Cup (quarter-final at Middlesbrough on Saturday). "As long as we have shirts, as long as we are alive, we will arrive, be competitive and fight hard for our success. We owe it to the people who normally support us ...

Of course, we're in the spotlight but this is our responsibility." Tuchel added that he did not have a choice in being the voice of the club in a tumultuous two-week period and said he would continue to face questions about any new owner. "A new owner needs to arrive, needs to be approved, and then be allowed to own the football club. Then we can discuss about it, if it's necessary," Tuchel said.
