When you make preposterous team selections, Tuchel.
Firstly for not starting elite open play creative machine Hudson-Odoi (created high-quality chance, within two minutes of coming onto the pitch against West Ham), retains possession better than anyone else in forward positions (never a turnover machine like the others) and had generally been terrific linking, pressing, stretching play, getting into advantageous positions to shoot on target in his first extended run in the side, no attacker has performed better than Callum this season.
Killed the rhthym and momentum of our creme de la creme for no reason.

Comfortably our most productive forward player and reflected in the above advance (underlying) metrics. The one supreme player necessary in unlocking low-block compact sides.
Team struggled to sustain pressure and create high quality volume chances in the attacking half past two matches, no coincidence...without Cal in the side. One doesn't win league titles by leaving out your by far and away best tempo setter and most dynamic playmaker in and out of possession.
A vital cog to any possible title challenge.
Secondly...breaking up the authentically strong fluid and balanced chemistry starting between Mount, Kai & Cal that were trouncing the likes of Newcastle, Leicester, Norwich, Malmo etc previously.
Persisting with affording time and patience to hopeless bottlenecks offering little to no productivity, struggling with the basics at the best of times.
Lastly - Starting Jorginho who is carrying hip discomfort (which will undoubtedly limit his movement) and making fatal errors in the process.
The alternative could have been to start Christensen in midfield (evidently Saul Niguez can't be trusted in midfield) and Azpi in back three (as much as I feel the latter shouldn't be starting matches, should never come at the expense of another player aggreviating an injury).
Loss is just deserts...

‘Tuchel’ auto-corrects to ‘Touched’ … do we need to alert the authorities?

The OP is spot on IMO. From the Chelsea games I've watched I felt CHO was undroppable and even put him in my FF team.

Got no issues then as City & Liverpool don't have Hudson-Odoi - title's already in the bag
Tuchel just keeping it interesting for the neutrals dropping him yesterday, generous guy that he is

It was a trifle unlucky. I thought you might have gateaux way with it, but one mistake and your defenders turned to Jelly and Ice Creamed for you to do better, but they ended up having their cake and eating it.

Yeah, come on Tuchel, at least the title, another CL, FA Cup as a minimum, or you are dragging the club backwards.
I mean, you haven't improved the team one jot since replacing Frank have you !!!!
Fans can be so ungrateful, when sitting in front of their computer screen.
