First- I am in no way criticising Tuchel...Definitely on Chelseas day they are unplayable but they will not dictate the game against City or Liverpool...they will not dominate...they will set up to counter the approach of the other team. Klopp and Pep just go out and play their own game regardless of the opponent for the part...This thread just include tuchel to just belittle him. He will get eligibility to come into it only after winning the pl. So no comparison as of now. Yet I won't take either pep or Klopp to manage chelsea right now.
Tuchel more suited to our over all set up. Has adaptability and aim is to win now and improving the squad he got.
I don't know what you are talking about intense and chelsea are playable but Klopp or pep not.On our day we too unplayable not even allow opponents a shot on target. City found it in cl final liverpool found it last season. So not sure what do you mean.
So maybe that could be seen as a limitation and I guess has been one of the few valid criticisms of Pep...that he has no plan B...where as Tuchel will adapt and find a way...Klopp and Pep are stubborn and play their ways regardless.
but when your way of playing is that good...it would seem silly not to trust it.
As regards Tuchel specifically...it’s early days...very early days...and his personality is not easy to live with when things don’t go to plan ( plenty of documented incidents of this) and so while I enjoy watching Chelsea now...if success doesn’t continue and Abramovich starts getting antsy...we might see a different Tuchel and a different Chelsea. You’re still in your honeymoon period...just enjoy it!
