LONDON – Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was in the spotlight after his team suffered a humiliating loss to West Bromwich Albion in Week 29 of the 2020-2021 Premier League. The Blues lost 2-5 to West Brom in a match that took place at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, April 3, 2021.
This was the first defeat for Timo Werner and his colleagues under Tuchel’s leadership. This poor result at the same time halted their unbeaten streak in the last 14 matches.
After the game, coach Thomas Tuchel commented on the negative results his team obtained this time. Tuchel did not deny that the red card that Thiago Silva received in the first half was the beginning of the destruction of his team in this match.
“There are two different situations, 11 against 11 and then 11 against 10. There are not five goals conceded when you have our quality, that’s for sure, but we were all involved in this bad situation. Including me,” Tuchel was quoted as saying on the page of BBC Sportlive, on Sunday (4/4/2021).

“We cannot adapt to shocking situations when we are in charge. Usually we are confident enough to defend, but we are careless and we keep making big mistakes,” he said.
“I see that two big mistakes were made before the second yellow card we received. So this is a harsh punishment for the mistakes we made, “he added.
