Thomas Tuchel gives Romelu Lukaku the cold shoulder despite Chelsea ace's double

Thomas Tuchel has given Romelu Lukaku the cold shoulder despite the Belgian scoring twice against Wolves to put Chelsea in control of Saturday's Premier League clash.

The Blues conceded twice late on to throw away the advantage that Lukaku had given them. It means Tuchel's men have now gone three top-flight games without a win, following a draw at Manchester United and a defeat to Everton.

Ironically, it had been one of Lukaku's best performances since he returned to Stamford Bridge in a club-record move from Inter Milan. So far, it has been a comeback to forget for Lukaku, who before Saturday had scored just five Premier League goals all season.
