Chelsea winger on what Tuchel did to him

Chelsea star, Callum Hudson-Odoi in a recent statement has recounted his experience under former manager, Thomas Tuchel.

Hudson-Odoi regretted the moments as he struggled to secure regular game time under Tuchel.

This made him push for moves away from Chelsea to get more playing time.

He, however, completed a loan transfer to Bayer Leverkusen in the closing stages of the summer transfer window.

Following Hudson-Odoi’s departure, Tuchel was sacked and replaced by former Brighton manager, Graham Potter, which makes it certain that the 21-year-old could find his way back to Stamford Bridge.

“It was one of those difficult moments when you look at yourself and say, ‘What am I doing wrong? Have I done anything wrong to not even be in the squad?’” Hudson-Odoi told Mirror.

“I would never say anything bad about Thomas, he was a good guy, a good manager. [But] the first game of the season, it was frustrating. Any footballer that isn’t in the squad would understand how frustrating it is.

“Regular football gives you consistency and the more games you play, the more consistent you become, the more form starts to kick in.

“You feel fresher, you feel better, you feel like… not that you’re getting treated fairly but that you’ve got the trust from the manager to push you and kick you on.

“You don’t want to be on the bench thinking, ‘Why am I not playing?’ And then it becomes weeks and weeks and the legs are rusty when you do play.

“The most important thing is consistent football. That’s what I’m getting here and it’s making me feel better.”
