Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, has said goalkeeper Eduoard
Mendy did not make the best decision for a penalty his side conceded in a 3-2
defeat at West Ham on Saturday.
The Blues were beaten for the second time this season in the
London Derby.
Thiago Silva headed Tuchel’s men into the lead, before
Manuel Lanzini levelled from the spot after Mendy ran into trouble clearing a
Jorginho pass.
Tuchel told BT Sport about the penalty: “Everybody is
involved, the pass is not the best decision, the orientation is not the best,
we can save it but the decision-making is also not the best from Edu in this
moment.
“We created a lot of half chances, a lot of touches in the
box, but sometimes you need a bit of luck, a deflected shot or loose ball that
falls to our feet. Their third one is a strange one, the two big chances they
had in the first half were our mistakes.
“We could not finish it with clear and better chances, be
more ruthless, we struggled also in defending some situations.
“Every loss is a bump in the road, that will not hold us
back from what we demand from us but we need to play more accurate, more stable
and reduce big mistakes.”
Mason Mount made it 2-1, but Jarrod Bowen and Masuaku scored
to give David Moyes’ men all three points.
“It is tough to play here, we did too many individual
mistakes, we did already against Manchester United and Watford and got punished
– if you want a result at this level you have to minimise mistakes. We talked
about it before, it’s obviously not helped,” Tuchel added.
