Thomas Tuchel heaps praise on two Chelsea stars vs Tottenham

Thomas Tuchel praised Hakim Ziyech and Romelu Lukaku after Chelsea’s comfortable Premier League victory over Tottenham.

Goals from Ziyech and Thiago Silva handed the west London club a precious victory over Antonio Conte’s side.

But Ziyech’s sublime goal stole the show in the Premier League encounter at Stamford Bridge.

“Maybe it was his best game, it was a very good game overall,” Tuchel said of Ziyech.

“He took the risk where it was possible, he was safe when it was possible to be safe.

“It’s probably the best position for him, we don’t normally have this position in a 4-3-3. The overlap gave him the space and the strike was brilliant.”

On Lukaku, Tuchel added: ‘Very good performance, very good team performance. He was absolutely reliable and put in a huge effort. It was a good match for him.”
