Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admits he's feeling a little rudderless after a poor start to the season.

Chelsea face Leicester City on the back of a thrashing at Leeds.

Tuchel said, “If you condense it like this, it sounds horrible. The ban comes from the Tottenham game where my mood in general was very good, was very happy. We were and are still disappointed with the result, also with the influence we had on this result and how we influenced it in the wrong way.

"There are several things we can do better, need to do better. It's not the moment to lose our head, our mood, or get moody, angry and carry that around for too long. It was the pre-season it was. And then the season starts and we get to know each other better.

"I'm not 100% sure where we are, how we are, who we are. We are in transition as a club and as a team. These things, the bigger they are, they help us get a clearer view, help us with decisions for the upcoming matches, and make things clearer to us and to me. Then we can transport it to the players to improve because we need to improve.

“Not only in transfers but in approach to how we play, what we play, where we improve. It is not only about shouting for players. The squad was strong enough to win the match in Leeds – and far too strong to lose 3-0. This is where everything starts.

"The opinions for transfers have not changed much or at all. We knew for weeks what we have and want to add to the group. I am far too experienced in this job to this level to know not every wish can be fulfilled. We have our own stuff to improve and it sharpens our vision on our own team. This is where the focus is."
