LONDON : Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel looked far from happy as his side were second-best for 45 minutes of Sunday's London derby at Tottenham but his halftime 'talk' and a key substitution again underlined the German's dramatic impact at Stamford Bridge.
The 3-0 win lifted Chelsea level top with Liverpool on 13 points from five games and underlined the Blues' title credentials. "We had the feeling every 50/50 duel went against us and that had to change. If you have N'Golo on the bench and you want to step up these patterns of the game, he's the player you bring. The reaction was needed and we showed it. We played a very strong second half to deserve this win."
For Tottenham it was all depressingly familiar as their horrendous Premier League record against Chelsea was extended to 32 defeats and only seven wins in 59 meetings. It is the first time since 2015-16 that the England striker has failed to score in his first four Premier League appearances of a season. He has attempted just four shots this season.
