Thomas Tuchel has admitted the role the Everton crowd played on Chelsea's loss at Goodison Park on Sunday, but he wasn't surprised by the nature of the atmosphere.
The Blues secured a crucial 1-0 win at the weekend thanks to Richarlison's strike early in the second half, capitalising on a mistake from Cesar Azpilicueta. Jordan Pickford was called into action with some stunning saves to keep Frank Lampard's side in front, and make sure they secured a vital three points.
The mood was set by supporters outside the stadium as they organised an incredible welcome for the home team, with thousands lining the streets with flares and flags outside Goodison. That noise then transferred onto the pitch, but it didn't surprise Tuchel.
