Having
been
sacked
in
December
2020
by
Paris
Saint-Germain,
Tuchel
was
appointed
Frank
Lampard’s
replacement
at
Stamford
Bridge
in
January
on
an
18-month
contract,
suggesting
there
were
some
concerns
about
his
long-term
suitability
to
the
job.
The
former
Borussia
Dortmund
boss
has
proved
a
shrewd
choice
for
the
Blues,
though.
Having
won
the
Champions
League
in
May,
Tuchel
has
guided
his
side
to
a
two-point
lead
at
the
top
of
the
Premier
League
in
2021-22,
with
eight
wins
from
10
games.
With
change
coming
at
London
rivals
Tottenham
–
Antonio
Conte
is
the
heavy
favourite
to
take
over
from
the
sacked
Nuno
Espirito
Santo
–
Tuchel
admitted
his
own
time
in
England
could
hardly
have
gone
better
after
he
made
the
“courageous”
decision
to
accept
Chelsea’s
offer.
Speaking
ahead
of
Tuesday’s
Champions
League
game
against
Malmo,
where
a
win
would
put
Chelsea
in
a
strong
position
to
reach
the
knockout
phase,
Tuchel
said:
“You
need
a
bit
of
luck;
you
can’t
win
the
Champions
League
through
planning
and
effort
alone.
It’s
not
like
this.
You
need
luck
and
when
it’s
meant
to
be.
10
–
Chelsea
have
won
10
of
their
14
Premier
League
away
games
under
Thomas
Tuchel
(D3
L1).
Only
Guus
Hiddink
and
José
Mourinho
(13)
have
reached
10
away
victories
in
fewer
games
in
the
competition
than
the
German.
Perfect.

“I
am
in
this
place
because
of
my
experience
at
other
clubs
and
teams.
I
am
grateful
I
learned
at
academy
level,
that
some
people
in
my
career
trusted
me
and
gave
me
confidence,
starting
with
my
parents
and
the
bosses
in
the
youth
academies.
“The
target
is
to
get
better
every
day,
every
match,
never
stop
progressing
as
a
coach.
Now
it
seems
to
be
the
perfect
fit
for
me
from
day
one.
I
am
super
happy
to
be
part
of
the
club
and
maybe
this
is
the
last
per
cent.
“If
you
feel
happy
and
appreciated,
you
are
able
to
produce
results
together.
I
am
part
of
a
big
team,
a
big
club.
This
is
how
I
see
myself.
I
wasn’t
happy
to
be
sacked
[by
PSG]
because
I
had
big
plans
for
the
Champions
League,
big
plans
to
win
the
league
again.
“But
then
some
weeks
later
came
a
huge
opportunity
and
I
had
the
desire
to
step
into
this
adventure
was
bigger
than
the
fear
about
an
18-month
contract.
You
need
to
be
brave,
courageous
and
I
have
the
feeling
I
got
a
big
reward.
I
am
happy
where
I
am.”
Chelsea
will
face
Malmo
without
the
injured
Timo
Werner,
Romelu
Lukaku
and
Mateo
Kovacic,
while
Mason
Mount
is
also
out
through
illness.
However,
Tuchel
said
Christian
Pulisic
would
be
back
in
the
squad,
the
United
States
star
having
only
played
twice
this
season.
