Chelsea defender Christensen: Tuchel demands teamwork

Andreas Christensen says a collective approach is behind Chelsea's resurgence under Thomas Tuchel.

The Blues have not lost in 12 matches under the German, which has catapulted them to fourth on the Premier League.

Writing in the match-day programme for our Champions League Round of 16 second leg against Atletico Madrid, Christensen said: "The reason we've been solid as a team is that we've been working hard as a team, with a high press and sometimes suffering together if we have to.

"I think it's inevitable, with the players we have, that they're always going to have their moments, with the skills and the talent that we've got here.

"As we get better and better as a team, people are going to express themselves in every way they can. I think we can look forward to that even more."

Chelsea are ahead 1-0 in their tie with Atleti heading into the blockbuster Stamford Bridge second leg.
