Tuchel provides Chelsea FA Cup final injury update
14 May 2021
Thomas Tuchel was thrilled to report at his press conference ahead of the
FA Cup final that Mateo Kovacic is fit again and available for selection.

The Croatian has not featured since picking up a hamstring injury in
Seville before the second leg of our Champions League quarter-final tie
against Porto last month.
During such a busy period Kovacic's absence has been felt, and Tuchel
underlined the significance of his return when he addressed the media via
videolink this afternoon.
'Kova is with us again,' reported the boss. 'It's huge. Mateo has
everything we need in midfield. He has experience, power, acceleration,
deceleration, he can dribble with the ball and beat players, he is fast
and has physical ability.

'You could see when we missed Mateo and N'Golo in the same match we lacked
quality and energy and experience. Billy [Gilmour] did a huge job in both
games, but it's still not fair to compare him to these players because
they have more experience and they are a step ahead in their development.
'It's what we need in the key moments of the season at the end of the
season. It's big news for us Kova is back. He has a huge impact in the
dressing room also and is a very positive guy.'
Kante wasn't involved against Arsenal but Tuchel confirmed his
availability
'We took the decision together, N'Golo, me and the medical team, to give
him the Arsenal match to rest and have treatment to the right Achilles, I
think.
'It was pain management, not a huge injury, nothing to be afraid of
getting bigger. It was just there and it was a bit annoying. He did all
training sessions yesterday and today, no complaints. He will start
tomorrow and very likely he will finish the game for us.'
We have two huge fixtures against Leicester in four days, and Tuchel was
asked which is more important
'I cannot judge it. These are two finals and we don't think about anything
else. We missed the chance against Arsenal to get a decisive advantage. We
have to cope with it and first of all show a reaction in Wembley to have
the upper hand on Tuesday.
'It's a bit curious we play two finals against the same team. It will be
very tough and complicated, but we feel ready for it. It's the moment to
step up and enjoy on the highest level. By enjoying we mean hard work,
suffer, and help each other out on the pitch.

Tuchel will lead Chelsea out in a final for the first time
'I am not yet in the mode to enjoy it,' added Tuchel. 'I still have a bit
of a hangover from the last defeat. It's always like this. I am a bit more
in angry mode, not at myself or the players, just because of the
opportunity we missed.
'When we arrive at the hotel I will hopefully transform it into a good
preparation and push the team to the edge so they play sharp. This is my
responsibility.
'We have to show a reaction. It's a big match, an FA Cup final, my first
final here in England. It's huge, but I will never get carried away with
the emotions tomorrow. I am fully focused to prepare my team better than
we did two days ago.'

Tuchel: It brings out the very best in you
14 May 2021
Thomas Tuchel has revealed he is relishing the 'unbelievable' prospect of
leading Chelsea out for an FA Cup final in front of fans at Wembley
Stadium.
https://i.imgur.com/afDgXcL.jpg
We take on Leicester City at Wembley Stadium in tomorrow's FA Cup final,
with the opportunity to get our hands on our first piece of silverware
under Tuchel.
However, there is already one reward for our making it this far in the
competition, as the match will be played in front of around 21,000 fans,
including 6,250 Chelsea supporters, meaning Tuchel will finally get his
first experience of a Blues match in front of fans, and it is one he
cannot wait to enjoy.
'It's unbelievable,' said our head coach. 'I got so used to not having
spectators, maybe it will be a shock tomorrow to go on the pitch and hear
some noise, but it will be so nice.
https://i.imgur.com/o0ErFQg.jpg
'We are absolutely looking forward to that. The game is not the same
without spectators and it's a pure pleasure to know we will arrive
tomorrow and see our fans there, see parts of our families. I think it's a
huge boost for everybody.'
For someone who appreciates the history of Wembley Stadium and it's unique
place in English, and world, football culture, the presence of fans will
no doubt add to the gravity of the moment on Saturday afternoon, after
Tuchel's initial introduction to the famous old ground was at an empty one
in our semi-final victory over Manchester City.
'I remember the old Wembley Stadium, seeing it on TV. It was not so easy
to see games from abroad in those days, so when I could see some of these
games I could feel different shirts, different players, different
atmospheres in the stadium.
https://i.imgur.com/HpcaAQA.jpg
Tuchel can't wait to see the Chelsea fans at Wembley
'I remember the old Wembley Stadium and of course the name of the stadium
is a big name in Germany and all of Europe, so it was huge for me to have
the possibility to coach a team in the semi-finals and now it's even
bigger to have the possibility in my first season to coach a final there.'
Of course, it's not just the venue and return of the Chelsea fans that
has the German excited by the prospect of taking on Leicester at Wembley,
with the FA Cup trophy also up for grabs.
As he explains, cup finals always bring out a special feeling for all
those involved, with the trophy within touching distance as all the hard
work put in during the campaign comes down to one 90-minute match.
'Both teams are so close and the hunger increases,' he added. 'The desire
once you arrive in the final, you build the pressure yourself. You don't
feel so close when you start a cup competition in the first and second
round. You know it's going to be tough and you know where you want to go,
but it's not the same tension that builds up inside of you.
'Because you are so close, the cup is right there and you know that this
is the last match and you never know when it will be possible to arrive
again, that builds the unique circumstances and you can feel this in the
preparation, in the training, in the approach to the match and the
concentration level.

'It is different to be in a final. It's the best thing to have in high
level sport, it brings out the very best in you and you have to cope with
it. It's a big gift to have it and hopefully we can show our best
performance tomorrow.'
He also feels that competing in big matches like this with a club like
Chelsea, and the winning mentality that goes with it, adds extra
motivation for him and his players, for this game and those still to come.
'Once you arrive in a final with Chelsea you want to win the final and
nothing else. It's huge because it's a final and when you are so close to
a title you want to win the title. I'm not any different from any player
or staff member here in that. We are Chelsea and we are about winning and
want to win titles, and as many titles as possible.'

Revealed: The Thomas Tuchel way to prepare for a cup final
15 May 2021
It is not a time for new tricks explains the Chelsea head coach…
https://i.imgur.com/uGEnich.jpg
Thomas Tuchel will experience his first FA Cup final today when he becomes
the first German to manage a team in the deciding match of football's
oldest club competition, but he has plenty of experience of cup finals
during his previous roles in his homeland and in France.
While no two finals are the same and football culture may vary between
nations, Tuchel's experience has taught him how to navigate through the
occasion, both on a team level and personally, and he admits nervousness
may be involved.
Firstly, the Chelsea head coach, who will also contest the Champions
League final this month for a second year in a row, discusses how he
likes to prepare players in the days immediately leading up to a cup
final.
'What is needed in the situation is to trust my feelings and trust the
feelings of my staff, trust also the data, and the general rule is that
the more tension, the more decisive a game is, the less new information we
give.
'We try to do the training sessions in the most easy way - short sessions,
clear sessions – and it is not the moment to learn new stuff, to
implement new tactical tricks.

Kante and Chilwell training yesterday ahead of facing their old club
'It's the moment to be confident and to be well aware of what our style of
play is, what we do good, what our strengths are, and encourage the
players to be on their top level.'
Tuchel recalls that ahead of one of first finals, when in charge at
Borussia Dortmund, he lightened the mood in the final training by taking
the gloves from his 'keeper and going in goal himself to try to save the
shots.
'I gave a lot of confidence to my players!' he smiles, clearly not rating
his own goalie skills.
'You cannot do it artificially, sometimes it happens, and anything that
can mean laughter is always very welcome,' he adds. 'But if you try too
hard to make the group smile, it will not happen. It has to come
naturally.

Tuchel with the German Cup won with Dortmund
'It's normal the tension will grow. Once we arrive in Wembley, there will
be a certain energy in the air that you cannot be prepared for. You will
feel it and then adapt to it and go for it. Embrace the challenge and do
what we all love on the very best level.'
Although Tuchel's children are too young to be at Wembley tomorrow, his
wife will be there to watch a Chelsea game live for the first time with
her husband in charge. Looking at himself, Tuchel has his own pre-match
routine although he admits he does not follow it religiously. It is not
set in stone.
'Normally the night before, I try to do sports. This time the team stays
in a hotel so we have a meal together, and maybe we talk some situations
and we watch some video footage from Leicester again to be prepared for
the next morning.
'Then usually I try to wake up early and do some sports, some meditation
for 20 minutes - breathe in, breathe out, eyes closed trying hard to do
nothing. And then be ready to prepare the first meeting.

season
'I have my ups and downs,' he adds. 'Sometimes I'm very disciplined,
sometimes I'm not so disciplined, but I think it's normal to be excited
and it's normal to be nervous. Sometimes it can catch me before normal
matches and sometimes you feel a little more relaxed and calm even if the
pressure is on.
'If it's a huge match it depends. I haven't figured out a certain pattern,
but it's normal for a certain amount [of nerves]. It's important because
then you are well aware of everything.'
Time will tell if Tuchel experiences special Wembley nerves during a
special football day.
