​Chelsea manager Tuchel: It's my responsibility to get attack firing

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel says it is up to him to get the team's attackers firing.

The Blues were worthy winners against Tottenham away from home on Thursday in the Premier League.

But they only managed a 1-0 success and needed a Jorginho penalty to win the game.

"We need create more clear chances," Tuchel told reporters post-game.

"This is the objective and this is the job for me and I blame nobody.

"This is the job for me and I blame nobody because I never scored in my career in the second and third league. It is the hardest thing, or one of the hardest things in football to score and be calm.

"But we have trust in our players and we will work to create even more chances and to create more clear chances and to be more effective.

"But, it is hard to talk the guys into it. No, in general everyone wants to score with every half-chance and chance we have. It is not like this in the Premier League so no worries so far."
