Thomas Tuchel narrates how Chelsea sleep off from Premier League title contender this season

Thomas Tuchel’s aim as Chelsea manager this season was clear – close the gap on Man City and Liverpool.

It looked like it would be easy – Chelsea were top as the Christmas period started, let’s not forget.

But since then things have gone off the boil, and on ESPN they spent today debating whether Chelsea would actually end up further from the top two before they got closer.

As they point out, the fact that we don’t even know who our owner will be next season makes it hard to see us making much progress anytime soon.
