Tuchel reassures fans and hails Havertz and Jorginho

Thomas Tuchel reassured the fans that he’s here to stay atleast till to the end of the season after our victory over Newcastle.

No matter what happens with the ownership of the club, Tuchel says he’s staying.

He declared, “There’s no doubt I stay until the end of the season. We just have to wait day by day because everything can change. The club is for sale but hopefully it goes through. So day-by-day, which is a good way to live your life.

“There are circumstances we can’t influence but that gives us the freedom to focus on the things we can influence. The focus is on the first team, our players and me. But Chelsea is much more than just the first team.

“It is a massive club with huge tradition and there are hundreds of staff, it’s not just the players, and it’s important we show the spirit and give them the distraction.”

Thomas Tuchel highlighted Jorginho’s role in their matchwinner against Newcastle on Sunday.

Tuchel said, “It was quality from Kai, an exceptional goal. The pass [from Jorginho ] was excellent and the control and the finish was outstanding, so full credit to Kai.

“He works hard in every game and that is shown in his running, the distances he covers and the high intensity work he puts in so to still have the ability, confidence and composure to take the ball in that moment and in the way that he did was very good.

“It was a moment of pure class and we needed that quality to break Newcastle down. Kai delivered for us today and then you could see in the last four minutes what a goal does for a team. We were so good and suddenly it was easier to find the gaps, to keep the ball, to open up spaces and switch the play – everything was so much easier and more fluid.”
