Thomas Tuchel has revealed why Christian Pulisic began on the bench of their FA Cup ultimate defeat to Leicester City at Wembley.
The 22-year-old got here on within the 68th minute for the Blues on Saturday as they appeared to chase the sport down following Youri Tielemans’ beautiful 30-yard objective.
Pulisic was brilliant when he got here on however could not make the distinction because the Blues fell to defeat.
Tuchel has revealed why he put the American on the bench and the way vital it’s to be managing the workload of the entire squad because the season involves an finish.
What Thomas Tuchel stated
“There is a every day alternate between me, the health coaches and the medical group, to foretell a bit of bit the workload, and what occurs if we let every participant play once more,” said Tuchel on managing and monitoring the squad.
“We speak about each single participant, each single day. Are there any points? Is there any historical past of muscle accidents? Is there any historical past of being injured in overload? Is there overload in pace, is there overload in work-rate? These talks we now have every single day.
“Maybe generally it provides on to it that we now have some tactical modifications, and you’re at all times a bit of torn between not wanting to vary in any respect as a result of issues are operating effectively, and understanding I can’t play the subsequent 10 matches with the identical squad
“For instance would Christian Pulisic have deserved to play within the FA Cup ultimate? Yes, in fact, and it was not a great feeling to not let him begin. But if he was in a threat of perhaps re-injury after which he could be out for the subsequent three matches, that might be the larger remorse for me.”
