Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admits he must make squad calls in the coming weeks.

For victory at Bournemouth, twenty-one different players featured for Chelsea at the Vitality Stadium over the course of an entertaining 90 minutes. Two-thirds of them had never played under Tuchel.

"We need these games to analyse and to judge our players, and to make decisions about the best next steps for them," he told chelseafc.com.

"There is now a training group of 28 or 29 which is a huge group, and players are coming back in the near future, so we have to make some decisions.

"It's good to learn during matches because we need to judge them on a fair basis and on some impressions from games because it's better than training."
