Tuchel: Chelsea strikers' stats just not good enough

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admits he's unhappy with his strikers' output this season.

Tuchel concedes their lack of cutting edge has cost them in big games.

He explained, "The statistics that Chelsea get from their strikers don't allow us to beat Liverpool and Manchester City.

"And we need dominance in this line if we want to be closer to the top two teams in the league.

"I'm not pointing fingers and I'm not blaming anyone, but we need super-efficiency from all players. Our players really do not have big numbers in terms of performance and assists."
