Thomas Tuchel, the Chelsea manager, must find a solution since “unhappy” stars could cause issues.
Thomas Tuchel, the head coach of Chelsea, may be having a problem.
According to reports, Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel has a number of disgruntled attacking players that he may try to offload before the transfer window closes. The Blues’ extensive roster will probably be reduced during the upcoming weeks.
Christian Pulisic, a winger, is reportedly a player other teams are interested in. The captain of the USA is reportedly one of a select group of players who feel constrained in Tuchel’s style.
The possibility of Pulisic moving to Manchester United on loan has been raised. Even though the 23-year-old was in superb form for Chelsea prior to Tuchel’s appointment, he has battled to get playing time under the German.

But Pulisic’s frustration at Stamford Bridge is not just due to this. The former Borussia Dortmund player, according to the Evening Standard, is one of “many” forwards who believe Tuchel’s system limits their ability to attack.

These players contend that putting emphasis on having a strong defensive line stops them from being successful attackers. Who the other stars are is unknown, but a number of Chelsea forwards have been mentioned in exit rumors this summer.
Both Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku have departed Stamford Bridge. Lukaku has been loaned back to Inter Milan, and Werner has returned to the team from which he was acquired by Chelsea, completing his permanent transfer to Red Bull Leipzig.
Pulisic might depart for Manchester United. Despite the Red Devils’ disastrous start to the season, The Athletic reports that the player is open to joining them.
Pulisic, who grew up supporting United, would enjoy a stronger assurance of playing time than he has at Chelsea. After two Premier League losses, the Old Trafford team is in desperate need of new additions, and a loan for Pulisic might be simple to arrange.
Timo Werner was given permission to quit Chelsea after publicly expressing his discontent.
Hakim Ziyech and Callum Hudson-Odoi, meanwhile, have both been connected to other teams. There is interest in Hudson-Odoi from teams like Newcastle, Southampton, and Leicester. The 21-year-old was originally expected to play in this week’s Premier League 2 match between Chelsea U21s and Fulham, but he was left out of the lineup as interest in a loan grows.
Similar to Pulisic, Ziyech has been connected to United. At Ajax, the Moroccan was a student of Erik ten Hag.

If players continue to question how they fit into the 48-year-tactical old’s framework, a number of departures might cause Tuchel serious problems. He might be compelled to sign a few more players who would work better in his system.
Anthony Gordon of Everton has been mentioned in transfer rumors, but the Toffees are unwilling to offload the England Under-21 international. Everton would need to accept a far bigger offer than Chelsea’s current offer of £45 million in order to enter into negotiations.
