Planet Football • 26 Nov 2021

Since replacing Frank Lampard in January 2020, Thomas Tuchel has transformed Chelsea into one of the best teams in the world.

The Blues were ninth when Tuchel took over but have since won the Champions League and now find themselves at the top of the Premier League.

We’ve taken a look at Tuchel’s first 50 games in charge of Chelsea and Lampard’s last 50 to see how they compare.

As that stats show, Chelsea have had a much better win rate and also average more points per game with Tuchel in charge.

While Frank Lampard’s Chelsea side did average more goals per game, they also had a very leaky defence which Tuchel has now fixed.
