Tuchel reveals past with Alonso, happiness with Mount and advice for Werner

03 Apr 2021


Ahead of this lunchtime's return of Premier League football to Stamford
Bridge, manager Thomas Tuchel has been discussing three of his players
facing varying challenges in the final seven weeks of the season…

When the German took charge in west London at the end of January, there
was one player in particular he brought from the fringes straight into a
key role in his 3-4-3 system. Marcos Alonso had not featured for Chelsea
since our 3-3 draw against today's opponents West Brom four months
earlier yet Tuchel saw attributes in the Spaniard that he was keen to tap
into.


In his first appearance under the new boss, Alonso rounded off the scoring
in a 2-0 victory over Burnley and neither the Blues nor the left-sided
defender have looked back since. Tuchel has admitted that their
relationship stretches back way before this year, which made it easier for
him to ignore the noise surrounding the 30-year-old when he arrived at the
club.


'It's not easy to fully ignore it but I tried to,' explained Tuchel.
'Maybe he was simply lucky because I knew him since he played in
Fiorentina and I was in contact with him a little so I followed his career
a bit.


'Marcos is an intelligent and calm guy, full of self-confidence but he's
well aware of what he can do and what he cannot do. We decided in the
first game to play a back three and to have the wing-back positions, which
suits his profile perfectly. He was experienced and I had pictures in my
mind of what he could give to the team in this position.

Alonso goes for goal in spectacular fashion at Cobham this week


'He showed his quality and from then on every day is a pleasure to have
him because he's a top professional guy. I'm very happy that he took his
chance. He never lost faith in himself and when we arrived he was
physically ready to play at the highest level so it's a credit to him and
now he has to keep on going.'


Another player who keeps going and going is Mason Mount, who played all
three games for England during the international break. If he is involved
against the Baggies, it will be his 50th appearance of the season for club
and country, the second year running he has hit that landmark.


In fact, no Chelsea player has more than the midfielder's 2,230 Premier
League minutes so far this campaign, yet Tuchel is not concerned about
burnout in the 22-year-old ahead of the run-in.


'Once I see him without that big smile on his face or without the sparkle
in his eyes then maybe I'll have to think if the moment has arrived where
he plays too much but right now I feel he is very excited about the
situation,' he continued.


'He is very mature, which is quite impressive, and that's why I'm not
worried at the moment. He's a super reliable player for us, shows top
quality, is very strong under pressure in the games and he can deliver
every three days.

Mount's goal at the Hawthorns got us back into the game in September


'I don't want to talk too much about him being tired because I can feel
him very relaxed. Even if he's physically tired, I feel him mentally
totally clear and that is what's very impressive for me.


'This is maybe the key factor that he can have a big career because he has
both feet on the ground. At the moment, he's in a good place.'
