Hudson–Odoi seem to have been the footballers most benefited with the arrival of Thomas
Tuchel to the bench of Chelsea and its consequent change of system.
The versatile German defender, who has already played the last two of Frank
Lampard in Premier
League As a starter, he has played three more games in the last month than he had since the start of the season. More of the same with respect to the Spanish winger, who was not in the game since September 26 and has played in four games under the command of the Krumbach coach for practically the same minutes as before landing in London.
The best Hudson-Odoi is back
By last, Hudson-Odoi It seems, at last, to be the same unbalancing footballer that he was before his very serious injury to Achilles and is being a fixed for Tuchel both as a winger and accompanying a forward in his 3-5-2.
By contrast, the main victim of the arrival of the former technician of the PSG seems to have been Kurt
Zouma, a landline with Lampard both last season and this one, where in addition, it had been uncovered as an offensive weapon from set pieces, achieving four goals in 15 games of Premier.
Figures that placed him at the level of the top scoring defenders in the major leagues this season, the first of the centrals.
Achraf, the highest scorer
Achraf
Judge (Inter), with six goals in 21 games, or the German-Dutch Robin
Gosens (Atalanta), with five in 15, surpass Zouma, but they are long-distance footballers much more used to stepping on the rival area than the French defender.

Rudiger like his trio of centrals, but the surprise came when, before the Brazilian’s injury in the game against him Tottenham (0-1), the new coach ‘blue’ opted for an almost unprecedented Andreas
Christensen, which was also from the game against Sheffield United (1-2).
A situation that has meant a 180º turn for a Zouma that he had only missed two games in domestic competition before last January 16, the date since which he has not stepped onto the pitch again.
