You understand Tuchel Football
No he doesn't. Probably because he made a lengthy contribution that's why you feel so.

If you watch the FA Cup very well. City played fast pace football in the first 30 minutes. They had to switch when the pressure was too much on them. What makes it difficult for any team to beat Chelsea at the moment is you don't know who will play upfront. Last time it was the slow Ziyech, today it's Werner. Tomorrow it could be Havertz or Pulisic and these guys switch roles easily. It's difficult for coaches to prepare man to man marking cos the Werner that's striking could be getting crosses in the next minute.

Also Chelsea can attack from middle or wings. This team mad gan. There's almost no limit to what they can do. The best way to beat Chelsea however is through long balls. Go and check Chelsea's last defeat, you will understand.
Just keep playing long balls, Rudiger can't cope with it.

Chelsea have their ways of beating man city anytime anyway.. blues we move!!

Old comment before the goal scoring started and always true. Once in a while, Man City gets lucky. I have observed that.

To beat this city team u just need to be brave. Don't park bus. Pep tried to match Chelsea formation in d first half but a little tweak from Tuchel in d second half and city was all over d place. Once u can peg city's wing back from flying forward u will always create chances and score. P

- True test will come against Atletico and Liverpool, they fell.

- Porto beat Juve, Chelsea can't beat them, they fell.

- City will beat them in the FA Cup semis, they fell.

- Real Madrid are too experienced for them, they fell.

- Tuchel can't beat Pep, Pep fell twice...

The only way to beat Chelsea is through long balls. If you watch today’s game you’ll see that.

The mistake Christensen made was from a long ball, the penalty call on the sterling-zouma scenario was from a long ball. There were a couple of other occasions as well Chelsea didn’t deal with long balls well from city.

If you check the last defeat Chelsea, you’ll also see this.

That said, chelsea for the ucl title cool

SouthEastFacts:

Go to Youtube, search for Nouman and watch his Tuchel analysis and you'd notice Tuchel core tactics is creating spaces in the opposition half and exploring those spaces. He presses the opposition with kante and Jorginho to create spaces for Mount to explore to free Werner.

Chelsea don't leave pocket of spaces when the opposition is with the ball, unless a defender miscalculated.

If you play pacy game against Chelsea, they will kill you. The only problem with Chelsea is that they are not clinical if not club like Man City, Real Madrid go dey chop goal.

The only way to play Chelsea is to slow the game down, but be rest assured you are not getting any goal.

They cannot kill you when you play a pacy game with them. They will rather resort to ultra defensive mode and wait for you to commit error and they will hit you hard on the counter.

Chelsea's style and pattern of play has been similar right from the days of Mourinho regardless of the coaches they have had Since then. They have always been very compact, ultra defensive and deadly on the counter. But guess how they were normally dismantled? Remember how they were usually trashed by Tottenham under pochettino with their pacy game? Remember the last time City ripped them apart by 6 goals to nil Under conte? Even their recent whooping by westbrom, remember how it went?

You can't beat this Chelsea side by slowing the game down, you need to be aggressive to get the goals. Lets wait and see the style Arsenal will adopt on Wednesday. If they play aggressively like they did against Newcastle, They will beat Chelsea.

Chelsea are highly notorious for their counter attacking play so you can take care of werner and co by not playing a high defensive line.
You mean pressing Chelsea without a high defensive line? Na suicide be that.

Do you know the space it will create between the Midfield and defence? And do you think Werner and Pulisic are in the game to pick beans?

Jazzman01:


Also your Centre Backs should sit as deep as possible. They have no business in joining the attack and if you must involve your RB and LB, some players must drop deep to cover for them.
There is no way Man City can press with their defence sitting deep. All Chelsea needs is one interception to attack those spaces.

Jazzman01:

Talking about centre Backs, How many times have you seen T.Silver taking up advanced positions?
Tuchel presses with kante and Jorginho. Man City doesn't have them.

Jazzman01:

Or when Terry and Cahill were both paired together.
Chelsea don't do high pressing during Terry era.

Jazzman01:

Yes because no coach is exploiting that lapse at the moment. Sometimes you need video reviews to see these things. You cannot see all on the pitch. And take note; I said maybe
Tuchel is not Lampard, watch a tactical analysis of hi game against Pep

They all depended on online score which to me sucks.

Even in the Champions League Final, Man City and Chelsea would still gonna be -4.5.

If u don't play the high line u are inviting pressure in ur own half and putting much pressure on ur midfielders as they will be outnumbered. The difficulty in playing chess is that they don't play with a conventional target striker. All front three drift out wide and come to the midfield to link up play. As a defender u won't sit in ur box when the attacker u should be closing down is Linking up play just cos u don't want to keep a highline. The difficulty in playing Chelsea is the balance in the team. Very strong defensively and very dangerous going forward. Even if city decides to sit back they LL still get drawn out cos Chelsea are very good at playing out from the back. The final is going to be very interesting, I see Pep trying to overthink it which mind result in him making bad calls.

3-1 is correct score and is quite different from under and over. I presume you said 3-1 is not -4.5, else you're right

Keep on deceiving yourself, not me. I am not a kindergarten in football. I am one of those who exposed Belgium in the Olympics and they were defeated 4-1. I have a lot of passion for football and has been following it when I was a child. Starting from the age of 7.

You don’t want Chelsea to win, that’s why your decision is like that. Nothing special about city, true they are good in attacking but Chelsea would carry the day.

Their defense isn’t as good as that of Chelsea.

Yeah and they would probably lose the bet. What Man City Coach needs to do is, he should go to their U-23 youth team and pick one player and place him as a joker. Someone who Chelsea doesn't know at all on how he plays football and then study the second leg match between Chelsea and Porto and try to push more men in the midfield. If they do this, Chelsea would fall like a pack of cards because the German coach doesn't always play defensively in the Cup Final.

Childish talk. You mean you have more access to video review than Pep and others ? Can you even coach a primary school team ? Fact is this Chelsea team is perfect and it would be hard for any team to now.
