Crisis session at Chelsea

A surprising 1: 4 in the Premier League against outsider Brentford \ - followed by a 1: 3 against Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final: FC Chelsea threatens to lose sight of the great goals at the season end spurt.

Because during the royal class now the exists as an exemble title carrier, the renewed CL qualification about the domestic league as a current third party is completely not secured. Further dropouts could make the current lead of five points to the London's pursuer Tottenham and Arsenal further melt.

In the middle of this: a acidified Thomas Tuchel. The CFC coach has already appealed to the CFC Coach by Real-Star Karim Benzema: "We are so far away from our level - in absolute matter what a game requires. That's alarming. Two games, seven goals, nothing has changed." And on, "If we continue to play, we do not need to think about the Bernabeu: we will be disassembled in the Bernabeu!"

"We're putting together in it"

But that does not happen and his team everything starts, but still to achieve the Champions League turn as well as the least Premier League goal, Tuchel has asked for a kind of "seat" with the team. Sense of the crisis meeting? The coaching staff is "not only disappointed, but also angry" about the recently weak achievements of the team - and therefore convened a discussion round.

Tuchel made his point of view: "Sometimes you have to tackle things like that, that's no amateur football." In particular, the 48-year-old criticizes the defensive of blues, intensity and readiness for action: "We do not see us similar to defending."

Despite his anger, however, the former Mainz, Dortmund and Parisian coach to be avoided to become personal, personally: "We do not show their finger on individual, seek no guilty. We're putting them together."
