Tuchel’s side were barely troubled by City, and they could have and should have got more goals themselves and could have made it even more comfortable.
It extends the German’s impressive start to life as a Premier League manager, and life as the Chelsea boss, which we know is a hugely pressured job.
Tuchel has now beaten 5 of the games very top managers in his very short time as Chelsea manager so far.
In just 3 months, he has beaten Guardiola, Jürgen Klopp, Diego Simeone, José Mourinho, and Carlo Ancelotti.
What is also impressive about this, is they did not concede a single goal in any of these games. Super impressive stuff!
