Chelsea left back Ben Chilwell is a huge admirer of German manager Thomas Tuchel.

The ex-PSG boss took over midway through the season at the Blues, replacing Frank Lampard after a poor first half of the campaign.

He has revitalized the team, helping them clinch a top four spot in the Premier League and reach two cup finals.

While they did not win the FA Cup, Chelsea have a chance to win the Champions League against Manchester City on Saturday.

"He's a very passionate manager, very demanding," Chilwell told the Daily Mail.

"When he's animated, it's his passion coming across and we completely respect it, if anything it helps us.

"It's a good thing. There's so many young, talented players in this squad and he's very excited and eager to help us all."

Chilwell added: "He pushes me every day, he's hard on me but that's what I want. It's music to my ears hearing the things every day he thinks I can work on.

"The fact he's taken a lot of time to help gives me confidence that he wants me to improve.

"He sees the potential in us as a team and individuals. He sees a vision and an end goal of where he thinks we can be over the next two-to-three, three-to-four years: winning the Premier League, the Champions League and FA Cups.

"He wants us to be winning stuff every season and he genuinely believes he can.

"I've come to Chelsea to win trophies like this. The rest of the squad the same. It's a big one, it's one we want to win.

"We want to win stuff year in, year out. We want to win trophies, we want to win the league. That is our aim."
