“My faults” – Tuchel finally reveals the mistake he made against Lille
Chelsea struggled in the first-half against Lille in a 3-5-2 system but the Blues improved in the second-half as Tuchel took off Mateo Kovacic and brought on Mason Mount at half-time, switching to a 3-4-3 system.
However, Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has admitted he made a mistake tactically in Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Lille on Wednesday night.
Tuchel admits the Blues had a poor first-half against Lille with Chelsea more fluid in the second-half after switching to a 3-4-3 system.
Tuchel said: “We weren’t so good in the first half. The pitch was horrible and it made things complicated. It was a new pitch not ready to play on.
“The tactics weren’t right in the first 20 minutes, I take responsibility. Then it was more fluid.”
