Tuchel speaks on the difference between coaching PSG and Chelsea

Thomas Tuchel has opened up on his experience coaching Chelsea and his former club Paris Saint Germain PSG.

Tuchel in his statement noted that there’s a huge difference between coaching the two clubs as he noted that the English club is more demanding.

Recall that Tuchel took over from Frank Lampard in January and so far he has been spectacular at Stamford Bridge keeping the Blues in the top four on the log table and helping them to be one of the contenders for the UCL this season.

“To go from Ligue 1 to the Premier League? It’s brutal, honestly. Very brutal,” Tuchel told L’Equipe ahead of the Blues game vs. Real Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday.

He noted that in France, they played the same number of matches, two cups, and there are also 20 teams in the Championship. But the intensity and challenge of the Championship are really very different in England. ”It’s a completely different level,” Tuchel said.

He stressed that it’s pretty ruthless as there is simply no time to breathe. There is not too much time to sit down, to be relaxed or comfortable.

He added that the players are also up to the task which makes moving forward easy.
