Latest Chelsea news

Chelsea news and transfers as things happen on Wednesday in the wake of their defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League.

[Chelsea](https://www.football.london/all-about/chelsea) actually started well in Zagreb last night. Tuchel's side laboured in attack once more and despite a lively start, once Mislav Orsic opened the scoring, Aubameyang's impact became less and less noticeable. With Thiago Silva left at home, it was no surprise Thomas Tuchel turned to the experience of Azpilicueta, who started on the right of the back three. The lack of invention, of repeatable attacking patterns that result in chances, was evident once more and something Tuchel has to change. Even more so when considered after Mislav Orsic scampered clear of the Chelsea defence and finished beyond It is still early in the season but with Tuchel unable to explain the performance against Dinamo, blaming himself and his players, he must find answers quickly. Everton manager Frank Lampard is slowly clawing his way out of the danger zone joining Steve Cooper, Bruno Lage and Ralph Hasenhüttl around the 16/1 mark. Tuchel had seen enough and the majority of Blues supporters on social media had seen their wish granted. Thomas will rightly have a place in Chelsea’s history after winning the Champions League, the Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here. You see the crowd the whole game, but I feel like the way we played and the way we started the game, we should have killed it off at the beginning." It was another disappointing result and performance for Thomas Tuchel last night as Chelsea fell to a shock 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League group stage opener. Having already laboured to a poor start in the Premier League there is now increasing pressure on Tuchel to overturn Chelsea's fortunes after form has dipped since the new year.
