How Thomas Tuchel Transformed Chelsea

Try The Athletic for FREE for 30 days: www.theathletic.com/tifoirl
Under Lampard, Chelsea looked dishevelled and unorganised, particularly in the defence, which saw them concede 77 goals in 57 Premier League matches.
Yet with Tuchel in charge, Chelsea have become European Champions, runners-up in the FA cup and finished 4th in the league in the 2020/21 season.
JJ Bull explains how Tuchel transformed this Chelsea side into title contenders both on and off the pitch.

There's such a fine line between a toothless attack, based on cross-and-pray football that leaves the backline exposed, and TT's devastating transitional play. They're essentially the same formation/strategy yet somehow Tuchel download the critical nuances into his player's heads that allows them to play a bit more quickly and with greater cohesion. I guess that "cutting-edge" that separates good players from great players holds true for coaches as well. TT has the sauce!

Lampard was inexperienced and out of his depth but unlike Arteta he at least had some idea what he was doing even if it didn't work. He laid the foundations for Tuchel to come in and take the team to the next level. TT himself credited Lampard for his rebuild work. If Sarri had stayed we would have been screwed. He'd have ruined our youth and made terrible signings. Lampard needs experience at a lower level and can still be a decent manager in the future. Arteta on the other hand is an utter fraud who's only fit to lay out the cones in training and make Pep his morning coffee.

[@saraha2250]

@@areebsiddiqui758 Sarri had a better season and won the Europa League unlike Lamps. Sarri took us from a defensive counter attacking team to a possession base attacking team. TT's current team is built on Conte and Sarri's formation and philosophy.

Sarri first 15 games were a winning run until we met Spurs who started man marking J5 and putting pressure on our defence.

[@miz5138]

I’ve heard people say that the way we play is similar to what we had under Conte which’s absolutely wrong. The system might look familiar but TT’s system is more about possession and counter press. Whereas under Conte it was more about hitting the opposition in transitions/counters and keeping it absolutely tight at the back.

Agreed. Conte had a more structural one dimensional attack set ups that relies heavily on the type of players you have which explains why he always demands certain players and once he doesnt get his way he bails. in his second season once teams figured how to counter his system through the use of half spaces he got exposed. he needs specific players to play well. Tuchel on the other hand has a more fluid situational attacks with clever movement and and quick play. he attacks through the middle, wings through balls and counter. struggled with the finishing last year but this year i don't think he will be having such a problem. Also Chelsea's depth is probably the strongest in the league now.

[@hibabadir9177]

@@ryanfinnerty6239 but surely one player not pressing high wouldnt limit you too much?! My problem with the previous chelsea team is that the attackers all want the ball to their feet therefore not many movements or chances created and they relied heavily on the clinical finishing of Costa Hazard and Pedro/ Willian. Pedro declined so much in Conte's second season and Willian playing out wide slowing down all their attack. I feel like Hazard should have been supported with better players who can play around him, and a more attacking set up in his last 3 seasons, rather than minimizing the teams role to the point he ends up being their only salvation.

When I first saw the rare bird that is JJ Bull, I was confused. This man is clearly not built to be in front of the camera. However, I now love the awkward style of JJ, he is brilliant at analysis, and quite charismatic.

[@Arushant]

What software is he using to explain this

[@pangdogmichael]

Marcus Alonso at the wheel

Chelsea content is amazing

[@Mark-uh3un]

Chelsea without Kante are a really good team, but with him it's almost unfair

[@kenogaming7383]

TT and conte has similar tactics, why alonso having a great time in starting lineup

[@AnK11Morrison]

I think Tuchel has reverted to the Sarri mode of passing that goal against Arsenal is case in point. Remember early in the season when there was a huge space left between MF and defence and Sarri implored the defense to step up and move along with MF (while attacking)and the attack to move along the MF [while defending] This job was way too early for Frank and it showed in the second season.

Tuchel is a possession coach

I’m surprised Joe hasn’t left an ad halfway through yet 😂

Can you do a video on how Saul fits into this Chelsea side...or....why Chelsea needs Saul.....bcoz I don't really see any need for him

[@JnoPrds]

Pretty simple. Chelsea are in 4 competitions, challenging for all 4 trophies. There are over 60 matches. Kovacic, kante and Jorginho can’t play all 60. There is your answer.
