圖赫爾談英超前四，球隊體能和霍奇森

2021.04.09


這週末圖赫爾的注意力將從西班牙南部轉移到倫敦南部，在我們的水晶宮之旅的
賽前新聞發布會上，主教練圖赫爾解釋了球隊將如何應對這場比賽，以及如何迎來接
下來忙碌的幾週。

圖赫爾見證了球隊在週三晚上擊敗波爾圖的比賽，藍軍的表現令人印象深刻，在
塞維利亞的比賽結束不到72小時後，藍軍有望在塞爾赫斯特公園球場開始新的連勝。


圖赫爾證實，在對陣水晶宮的比賽前，藍軍沒有嚴重的傷病問題，只有蒂亞戈˙
席爾瓦將因禁賽缺席比賽。隨著爭奪英超前四名的競爭越來越激烈，奪取三分是至關
重要的。


“我們2-0戰勝了波爾圖，但這對我們與水晶宮的比賽沒有任何影響，”當被問
到藍軍如何在這緊湊的賽程中取勝時，圖赫爾表示。


“但這場比賽可以極大地提升我們的自信。明天不是我們將克服所有障礙、實現
目標的日子，明天我們將迎來90分鐘的比賽。我們需要專注90分鐘，我們不需要去想
週二及與曼城的比賽。”

“我們必須一次又一次重新開始，這是一個挑戰。有一點非常重要，我們完全專
注於目前所面臨的每一個挑戰，忘記我們所取得的比賽結果，接受每一個新的挑戰，
從一開始就為新挑戰做好準備。”


“我們一步步向前走，我們可以依靠完全健康的球員們，我們沒有嚴重的傷病，
希望能繼續保持這樣，”圖赫爾補充道，“我們可以像一個團隊一樣進行防守，我們
可以依靠球隊在球場上的團結和強大凝聚力，艱苦的防守可以給我們很大的自信，讓
我們完成防守任務。”


“還有一些比賽較少的球隊在等著我們，但我們需要接受這一事實，靠自己堅持
下去。我們的主要目標是在恢復精力、訓練、集中精力，一步一步地進行比賽，找到
一個良好的平衡。”


圖赫爾將在執教生涯中第一次面對羅伊˙霍奇森。


“幾年前，我在倫敦的一次會議上見過他本人。他是一個絕對的紳士，一位非常
有經驗的教練，他毫無保留地分享他的教練經驗。這一點可以從他的球隊踢球的方式
中看出來，他們踢得很冷靜，很有經驗，很穩定，很有條理。”


“水晶宮是一支強隊，他們的前場兩名關鍵球員，這是我們絕對需要注意的。能
和霍奇森一起站在場邊讓我感到很高興，這對我來說意義重大，但明天我們會竭盡全
力擊敗他，我們預計將迎來一場艱苦的客場比賽。”


記者希望圖赫爾就部分俱樂部在遭到網上謾罵後抵制社群媒體的事件發表評論。


“我不確定我們俱樂部對這件事有哪些明確的看法。這不是我的工作，但我們當
然支持所有反對在社群媒體上恣意謾罵的行動。我相信我們的俱樂部會採取必要的措
施。”


https://i.imgur.com/V7oJFxd.jpg


“隨意的惡意評論會影響所有人。人們會受到報紙、廣播或社交媒體上評論的影
響。社群媒體給了人們一個巨大的平台，人們可以在沒有名字的情況下發表評論。這
打開了辱罵和批評的大門，但人們會受到影響，這就是為什麼我希望能完全避免這種
事。”


“最終這不僅會讓我們的球員感到擔心，也會讓我們的社會為之擔心，它具有一
定的影響力。”

Tuchel on key to top four race, squad fitness and Hodgson meeting - 09 Apr 2021

Tuchel on Abraham's battle for minutes, Pulisic getting stronger and how
loan players will get their chance

09 Apr 2021


In the build-up to tomorrow's Premier League trip to Crystal Palace,
Thomas Tuchel has been discussing the form and fitness of two players, as
well as his plans to use those out on loan next season...


https://i.imgur.com/zDIzVyH.jpg


With no fresh injury concerns, the Blues boss has been able to work with a
full complement of players on the training pitches at Cobham this week, in
between the two-day trip to Seville for the Champions League
quarter-final. However, he has admitted it is proving difficult to trim
down his options when selecting his matchday squad, and even tougher to
limit the playing minutes of those who deserve more.


Tammy Abraham has shaken off a troublesome ankle injury to return to
availability in recent weeks, although he hasn't featured since starting
our 1-1 draw at Southampton in mid-February.


Tuchel has revealed the striker has trained well this week and says the
challenge has been laid out for our top scorer to force his way back into
the Blues side.


'Tammy has had a rough time recently but he is working hard,' Tuchel
revealed at his pre-match press conference on Friday afternoon. 'He
started two or three times and was substituted for tactical reasons, then
he got injured and lost a bit of the connection that he had so now he has
to play for his place in the squad.

Abraham has been training well and working hard, according to Tuchel


'Suddenly we are in the decisive part of the season where it's not so easy
to bring injured players into the squad when they return. We have a full
squad now, with 22 players on the training pitch every day and it's
difficult to pick only 18 players for each Premier League match.


'We have only three changes in each game and it's a big handicap because
it's very difficult in the offensive positions to make an impact in a
small amount of minutes but it is possible and it's up to Tammy to do
everything possible.'


One player who has returned from injury to have an impact in recent games
is Christian Pulisic, the forward having opened the scoring last weekend
in the Premier League and then crashed an effort off the crossbar after
coming off the bench in midweek against Porto.


Tuchel feels the American is making sure and steady progress, adding that
his physical health is so important given the explosive nature of his
game.


'Fitness is always important for Christian because he has this huge
physical impact in the amount of sprints and intensity that he can give to
the team on the highest level,' continued the boss. 'This is one of his
biggest strengths, and the other thing is he needs to feel confident and
calm mentally, and then he can be a huge weapon for us.


'He scored in the last game against West Brom but unfortunately the
overall game and his need to go off the pitch at half-time clouded the
goal and the impact he could have had with that goal.

Pulisic opened the scoring last weekend with his first club goal since
December


'Then again he was very close to scoring and had a huge impact from the
bench [against Porto] so we have to take care about him, that he hopefully
will not be reinjured, because I feel him stronger and stronger, and more
and more self-confident.


'He could be a decisive factor in the next game with his speed, his
ability to dribble and his ability to arrive in the box in dangerous
situations from balls from the sides and crosses. He normally has the
feeling to arrive and to score so hopefully he can have that impact. It's
our job to push him there and to calm his mind that he feels the trust and
he feels confident.'


Despite the options available to Tuchel this weekend, Michy Batshuayi will
not be able to take to the field at Selhurst Park for either Chelsea or
Crystal Palace due to Premier League rules governing his loan move across
the capital.


The Belgian is one of many players out on loan from Stamford Bridge and
Tuchel has admitted he hasn't had the time to keep tabs on all of them,
though he indicated that the summer pre-season could be used to assess the
group more closely.


'We cannot have a squad of 50 players next season and it's not so easy
because we have a lot of players on loan with a lot of quality and who
have a big influence at the clubs where they play,' he added.


'We are not so long at the club so we're still getting to know our 22
players here better but of course we know everybody and have a general
overview. On loan, you always have the trouble in translating the
performance into your league if they go abroad, or into your club if they
play for another club like Crystal Palace.


'Would it be the same impact here? Sometimes you see performances because
a player plays very regularly and has his 90 minutes all the time but can
he give the same impact if he's coming from the bench? This translation
can be very difficult to make.

Batshuayi scored a late equaliser for the Eagles last weekend but won't be
eligible to face his parent club tomorrow


'I would always prefer to see everybody and to meet everybody personally
in a pre-season so let's see how this works out. At the same time, I
respect the policy of the club. I can totally understand that the club has
the last word on what we do and what can happen with the players.


'I'm not totally aware of every contractual situation but I'm very relaxed
about it. We know we have strong players out there and if the market gets
complicated in the summer, we have a big pool of players to pick from.'

'Everybody wants higher numbers' – Tuchel on our need to improve in attack

10 Apr 2021


Chelsea's rise up the Premier League table and progress in both domestic
and European cup competitions has been founded on a strong defence, though
it is up the other end of the pitch that Thomas Tuchel is targeting bigger
numbers in the final, crucial weeks of the season…


https://i.imgur.com/L3DCpTh.jpg


The Blues have not netted through one of our nominal strikers since
Olivier Giroud's first-leg winner against Atletico Madrid in the Champions
League, a run of eight matches.


During that period, we have scored 11 goals from the likes of Mason Mount
(3), Hakim Ziyech (2), Christian Pulisic, Emerson Palmieri, Ben Chilwell
and Jorginho, though a lack of firepower from the forwards has led Tuchel
to explain what can be done to improve the situation between now and the
end of the campaign.


'For the next eight weeks, we just have to think about how we can improve
the scoring situation and then in the summer we will think further
together with the club about the best solutions for us,' said our German
head coach.


'Everybody knows, and when you read the statistics it is obvious, that the
guys lack this last percentage of confidence when they don't score. They
work hard for us defensively and they are part of this successful run that
we have but scoring is their main target. It's in their characteristics
but obviously it's a bit hard for them.


'When you're out there on the stage playing for Chelsea in three
competitions, you have to face the adversity and the expectations that
everybody has of you when you play as an offensive guy for Chelsea. These
are high demands but I have the feeling they accept them. Everybody wants
higher numbers and it's difficult for us to produce them but we will not
stop pushing.'


Tammy Abraham has not scored in the Premier League since Boxing Day but
remains our joint-top scorer in the competition with six, leading to some
calls for the 23-year-old to be reintegrated into the team following a
troublesome ankle injury that has seen him miss the past nine matches.


However, Tuchel insisted he was reticent to make significant changes to a
side that had performed so consistently under his charge and instead told
Abraham to ensure he was ready for any opportunity that came his way.


'I can only judge what I see and from what we have together from the first
minute when we arrived,' continued the boss. 'I saw a bright young man
with Tammy, a guy who is self-confident and who has a lot of talent.


'But it cannot be that in a period of such good results, suddenly the guys
who don't play are the winners. This does not feel logical to me. I'm not
so sure it's the moment to do crazy stuff and try things.


https://i.imgur.com/aJ6rCn7.jpg
Abraham has found minutes, as well as goals, hard to come by in recent months


'It's super hard to come back when the team is winning and that's a pretty
normal situation but I feel Tammy is totally hungry to turn things around.
If you have the number nine on your shirt, you put a lot on your shoulders
but sometimes the momentum can change in only some minutes for offensive
players.


'As a striker, you have to always be ready and in the last weeks he was
not available. He suffered a bit from the circumstances so maybe it's not
his fault but it's also not our fault. We just have to accept and find the
light at the end of the tunnel for him.'

Hoddle: 'Matthew will be sitting up there looking down now and

loving Chelsea being winners. He'll just love Chelsea winning.'
