I don’t care anymore: Tuchel sends strong message ahead of Newcastle clash
Due to Newcastle United being owned by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and Chelsea being owned by Roman Abramovich, there had been suggestions neutral fans would want neither club to win.
However, Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel says that he does not care over the opinion of neutral supporters about Chelsea and Newcastle’s Premier League clash on Sunday, stating that he is only targeting victory at Stamford Bridge.
Tuchel said: “Maybe [neutrals want no one to win] but I don’t care, I want us to win,”
“I tell you it will be a difficult one because Newcastle is strong, very, very strong. It’s a different Newcastle and they produce a lot of results. So I’m expecting a very, very tough game.
“Sorry, but I don’t care so much what the neutral spectators think about who should win. I think in the end, everybody wants to be excited to watch games and want to be entertained and this is what we’re up to.
“In the moment we try to have the focus right and tried to have the attitude right and the guys do this in a very impressive way and we need it on Sunday.”
