Chelsea’s progress in the Cups provides some stability after turbulent period for Thomas Tuchel’s men
The Cups are shoring up Chelsea’s season. After a run of three wins in nine games that has made a title challenge unlikely and cost them top spot in their Champions League group, wins in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final and the third round of the FA Cup have restored a sense of stability at Stamford Bridge. This went about as well as it could have done for Thomas Tuchel’s side: ahead early and so in control by half-time that he could afford to rest players.
