https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2021/11/30/ tuchel-updates-us-on-andreas-christensen-s-future- Tuchel updates on Andreas Christensen's future 30 Nov 2021 Head coach Thomas Tuchel has said he is still waiting for good news regarding the future of Andreas Christensen, who is out of contract in the summer. https://i.imgur.com/prNqfYc.jpg The defender has gone from strength to strength under our German head coach, scoring his first Blues goal earlier in the season and contributing to the outstanding defensive solidity that is helping to build our current success. The Danish international has been on the Chelsea bench for the last three matches, and Tuchel is hoping this influences the contract talks to progress even further. 'No, it is the opposite,' Tuchel replied when asked if a lack of playing time hinders his chances of a new deal. 'We have to hope that it influences the contract situation a little bit. My understanding was that it is a matter of a very short period that we have good news. https://i.imgur.com/fOBBu48.jpg Andreas celebrating his first ever Blues goal, after 137 appearances 'I said this in the national break, that for me it is a matter of days that we think that we can have good news about Andreas. 'As I understand it, the club want the same, and so do the coach and player. That is to stay, and that's why we need the commitment and then we can continue.' However, the Bavarian has put the onus on the Dane's camp to finalise the negotiations and pen his long-term future to the club. 'We have been waiting since a long time now for confirmation and it is on Andreas to act how he acts on the pitch. He needs to act now off the pitch and walk the talk because he tells us he loves Chelsea and that he wants to stay,' said Tuchel. https://i.imgur.com/4yqRq86.jpg Andreas in Chelsea training 'He says he wants to be a big part of this club, because he is a big part, and I think he is a perfect fit. He is not done here yet and his career is far from finished at Chelsea. 'He can still develop and be a big player. But it is on him. We want the commitment and hopefully we get it.' --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2021/12/01/ tuchel-on-managing-lukaku-s-return-and-whether-saul-is-ready-to- Tuchel on managing Lukaku's return and whether Saul is ready to start 01 Dec 2021 Although frustration was the overriding emotion during the closing stages of Sunday's draw with Manchester United as we strived to find a winning goal, the sight of Romelu Lukaku back in blue after injury provided a welcome boost. https://i.imgur.com/PWo2YSZ.jpg The striker had been absent since a nasty foul left him hobbling off the pitch in some pain early in the emphatic home victory over Malmo on 20 October. https://i.imgur.com/YKHEUuT.jpg The penalty incident that led to Lukaku's injury With the aid of the medical staff at Chelsea he has nursed the ankle injury since, returning to outside training during the recent international break and then stepping back onto the pitch on Sunday. According to Thomas Tuchel, that has lifted Lukaku's spirits, with the Belgian in genuine contention to start against Watford later. 'We gave him some minutes, and that helps him psychologically,' said Tuchel. 'He is happy, he smiles every day, he is determined, and he trains on a very high level. Once we are of the opinion he is fully free, he is ready to go and contribute what he can, which is a lot. He is with the team and a big chance to play [tonight]. 'We believe he can make the difference for us but at the same time we will be patient. He is a big guy, and a big guy with an ankle injury in my opinion needs a bit of time because he puts heavy weight on his ankle for turning, acceleration, deceleration. This is a crucial part of these movements. https://i.imgur.com/uBwHspK.jpg Lukaku back in the thick of things against his former club 'We have showed with and without him we are capable of scoring and winning, and it's a process of adapting both ways,' continued Tuchel, assessing the Belgian's impact on this Chelsea side. 'The most important thing is he gains fitness and a physical level where he can start for us. The rest will take care of itself because Romelu is a winner, a champion and is hungry for more.' Another player who has been without much playing time in recent weeks, albeit for different reasons, is Saul Niguez. The midfielder on loan from Atletico Madrid has started one league game, his debut against Aston Villa, and has only briefly featured off the bench twice in the past month. However, with N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic ruled out of tonight's game through injury and Jorginho a doubt, there is a good chance Saul will feature at Vicarage Road. Tuchel has discussed that prospect and, more broadly, the Spaniard's start to life in SW6. 'Every single player needs his time to adapt, and Saul needed his time,' said the boss. 'He competes with a lot of high-quality players in our midfield. We need to understand him a bit better, not in terms of language but in terms of what are his real strengths when you get to know him, what can he add to the squad and where his unique quality is. 'It's the first time he has played for a club other than Atletico,' Tuchel pointed out. 'The style of the game is so different from Spain to here, and that teaches us a lesson that everybody needs their individual time to adapt. https://i.imgur.com/rMOPChQ.jpg Saul's best showing yet came in the Carabao Cup victory over Southampton 'Since many days ago he is stronger, I feel him a bit more relaxed and at the same time it gives him a little bit more freedom to impose his quality. He is very strong in finishing, and he is very strong in arriving in the box. 'Where we have injured players in midfield - even Jorgi is doubtful tonight - it's the moment for him to be ready. I have had the feeling for many days he is ready and can show what he wants to do.' -- 当我漫游在斯坦弗森林时，我看见了雀尔西，米尔斯的女儿，在傍晚初升的明月中， 在泰晤士河旁一处林地空间上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的记忆都离开了我，我像落入迷离 幻境中一般，因为雀尔西是伊露维塔儿女中最美的一位。她身上那袭蓝色的衣裳宛如 万里无云的晴空，她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星闪烁的天空；她的斗篷上绣着金色的花 朵，她的头发漆黑如暮色中的阴影。她的荣光与美好，就像树叶上的光芒，像是潺潺 流水，像是这迷离世界上方闪烁的繁星；她脸上有闪亮的光辉。 --
