Regarding Chelsea's new coach....


Quote:
As Chelsea have considered several German-speaking coaches in recent weeks - they approached former RB Leipzig manager Ralf Rangnick directly and reached out to the same club's current boss Julian Nagelsmann's camp - it seems as if the Blues hope that the German school of coaching that also spawned Klopp could reinvigorate the club.

Tuchel, having gone through the German coaching education system after he had to retire from playing at 25, might be able to connect quite easily with Werner and Havertz and implement them into his system.

He also worked well with Christian Pulisic at Dortmund and Thiago Silva at PSG. Moreover, he asked PSG's management to make offers for both Jorginho and Antonio Rudiger during previous transfer windows.

It has already been reported players like Pulisic are happy about the arrival of Tuchel. While his personality might be off-putting in the eyes of some boardroom executives at times, he has helped a lot of players improve and take the next steps in their careers. "It is a players' game. We as managers only serve our players," he once said.

[Pulisic got his debut for Borussia Dortmund under Tuchel, and they have always had a good bond. Their connection is quite strong. Tuchel is a big believer in Pulisic's ability, and they know a bit about working together to earn trophies.
