Thomas Tuchel ‘infuriates Chelsea players by dragging them to training on their day off’ as Blues boss desperately tries to stop club’s poor form ahead of FA Cup final
Thomas Tuchel reportedly irritated the Chelsea team by taking players to training on what was supposed to be his day off.
The Blues manager is doing all he can to stop the club’s recent slump, which has put their participation in next season’s Champions League in doubt, with the FA Cup final against Liverpool this weekend.
Chelsea squandered a two-goal lead and conceded the equalizer in the 97th minute of their 2-2 draw with Wolves on Saturday, leaving them with just one win from their last five games.

According SunThe players were not happy about being called up on Sunday as they are exhausted after a season in which they have made 59 appearances in all competitions so far.
Defender Marcos Alonso is also reported to feel he became a scapegoat in the Wolves game and believes his effort was called into question by being substituted at half time.
In addition, the report ensures that part of the squad sees its chances of fighting for the League title next season in jeopardy due to the imminent departures of leaders such as César Azpilicueta and Antonio Rudiger.

Chelsea are currently third in the Premier League table, but their recent form means they are in danger of letting that place slip away. They are just one point ahead of Arsenal and five ahead of Tottenham.
The Blues travel to relegation-threatened Leeds on Wednesday night before getting a chance to lift the cup in Saturday’s cup final at Wembley.
“If you sign for Chelsea and you play at this level, it’s not always easy and it’s not always nice,” Tuchel said after the draw against Wolves.
‘It’s hard, it’s exhausting, it’s exhausting. That is what you must accept and that is what we demand of everyone.
