‘Get in the real world’: TalkSPORT pundit has just slammed Thomas Tuchel for Leeds United comments
Jamie O’Hara has hammered Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel for his comments about Leeds United at the weekend.
The Chelsea manager spoke after the game at Elland Road and bizarrely, insisted his Blues side were the better team before blaming a catalogue of errors – including having to get a bus up to Leeds – as the reason behind a bad weekend in West Yorkshire.
However, former Spurs midfielder O’Hara was having none of it and he slammed Tuchel live on today, believing Leeds and fans in general need more respect.
“Tuchel was coming out after the game and making excuses. Some about having to get a bus and saying they were the better team and that Leeds weren’t a better side than them. Leeds were way better than Chelsea. Chelsea weren’t good enough, give credit where it’s due. Leeds were fantastic. Outrun them in every department. “, O’Hara said on .
“So the players flew. The coaching staff had to get a bus. Oh poor them. The excuses. Try listening to the fans and all the people that have to do these eight hour shifts. Come on, get in the real world Thomas. Stop making excuses.”
TBR’s View: O’Hara Bang On Here
He can be outspoken at times Jamie O’Hara and he can sometimes divide opinion but he is more than spot on with this assessment here.
Tuchel sounded borderline ridiculous with his comments after Leeds and then to throw in the bit about having to get a bus up to Yorkshire just showed him up even more.
His Chelsea team were soundly beaten by a better Leeds team and O’Hara is right to throw light on that. There seems to be some pressure getting to Tuchel at times and it looks, on the surface, an ugly part of his make up when he rants like this.
