Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger has highlighted the differences between Thomas Tuchel and Frank Lampard.

The German has now played under two managers for the Blues this season, given Tuchel recently replaced Lampard.

Chelsea have been on a winning run under Tuchel, and Rudiger pointed out some differences in how he approaches the players and matches.

"That doesn't do anything because at the end of the day, the job you have to do on the pitch it is not about sympathy, we are professionals, you have to deliver and earn your spot," Rudiger explained to Sky Sports about Tuchel being German.

"Because of the results, it's been good [under Tuchel so far]. I think the coach knows what he wants. He has a way of playing football and you can see from the games, the players have adapted very quickly to that.

"From every coach, you want him to improve you. I don't want to hear what I'm doing good, I want to hear what I'm not doing good and what I can improve. This is what I want to see from him.

"In general, the whole season, when it comes to defending, compared to other seasons, we did very well. That also started with Lampard and now the coach has a different idea, which is to keep the opponents up in their own half and try to win the ball back there rather than winning it further down in our half."
