Chelsea thread 2020/21

And just like that my opinion of Tuchel has gone down. He's not fit to place Pep's boots. Never in a million years would you hear Pep play down a competition to be subservient to the board.

The team Pep put out in the semi final was not exactly a glowing endorsement of the competition.

Like it or not, Champions league participation is far bigger that winning the FA Cup.

If Leicester or Chelsea were to end up out of the top 4 it would be a serious blow to them,

Pep did make 9 changes to the FA Cup team because he was more interested in finishing off the league title and winning a CL semi-final than winning the FA Cup. They have both done the same thing, I don't see a meaningful difference other than Tuchel openly admits it - and Pep got pretty close when he told everyone the ranking of the competitions this season.

Also I think it's pretty unfair to compare Pep and Tuchel's ability to stand up to their respective bosses. Pep is in a situation where the entire club is begging him to stay as long as possible and their full time mission is to keep him happy. Tuchel has an 18 month contract and arrived 3 months ago.

Exactly, If Tommy T misses out on top 4 and we beat them in the final and he starts next season poorly, he will be out, that's the way Chelsea operate.
