Thomas Tuchel lost little time to start working as Chelsea’s head coach.
His arrival may have been delayed for a few days – the Chelsea hierarchy apparently making the decision to replace Frank Lampard after last Tuesday’s defeat in Leicester City, but only putting it into action yesterday morning – but after confirmation of his arrival this afternoon, he already did his first training session in the evening.
Tuchel, replete with his own monogrammed training kit as well, can be seen pointing and shouting and maybe even a little smiling in the photos from Tuesday’s session in Cobham under the lights (6 pm start time, local). The former PSG and BVB player has a pretty good set of guiding principles that he likes to apply to players, which can be a challenge in a mid-season appointment, but we hope to see some results on the pitch soon.
UPDATE: Now with video on the Chelsea App and official website.
Onwards and upwards!
