Former Chelsea defender Gary Chivers admits he's a fan of manager Thomas Tuchel.
The former Chelsea and Brighton fullback says Tuchel's clear popularity with his players is the hallmark of a top coach.
“He does feel like a messiah. I gauge it by the players' reactions to him and they clearly like him," said Chivers to Brighton's website. “That's half the battle, if you've got a team of players that like you they'll go out and fight for you and I think he's got that about him.
“He has got that personality, he wants to win and he's got drive – he's got a very good set of players as well.
“I think they will be pushed all the way for the title by Manchester City and Liverpool. It's a three-horse race. Chelsea seemed to have broken away, but City look very good."
