Thomas Tuchel diagnosed a severe case of fatigue among his suddenly struggling Chelsea players after their 1-1 draw at Brighton on Tuesday night and aims to arrest it by giving them two days off before the weekend.
“They need it [Wednesday and Thursday off] so badly,” said Tuchel whose team sit third in the Premier League, 12 points behind the leaders Manchester City and have failed to win any of their past four league games, collecting just two points from a possible 12.
