”One could just see that every player knew his job and performed his role to perfection”
With Tuchel’s pragmatic approach and his charges performance in Europe, Drury is looking forward to Chelsea’s show next season.
”And it is very interesting now to see whether Chelsea are able to go forward and become a threat to Manchester City and sit right at the top of the Premier League again”
Chelsea won the 2021 UEFA Champions League title on Saturday May 29,2021 beating fellow English club Manchester City in the final, 1-0 at the Estádio do Dragão in Porto.
