Chelsea boss Tuchel: Leeds stronger since Marsch appointment

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is wary facing Leeds United tomorrow night.

Tuchel says he has been impressed with an improvement in Leeds since manager Jesse Marsch took charge.

"It looks different," he says. "They stepped up in their physical input. We thought they were already on their top level physical wise under Marcelo Bielsa. But they have stepped up high intensity runs. This is what we expect. They play a slightly different formation. They played a back five against City.

"They look very committed. It's a fast, hard working team. A talented team individually. It's a match for them where it's almost like do or die. The atmosphere will be like this. I am looking forward to it. Tomorrow will be a big fight.

"The atmosphere and surrounding will tell you instantly what is going on and we need to step up."
