Chelsea should have 21 players on Ballon d’Or shortlist, says Thomas Tuchel after Edouard Mendy heroics
Thomas Tuchel claims Chelsea should have 21 players on the Ballon d’Or shortlist and believes Edouard Mendy’s match-winning performance against Brentford proved he was unaffected by being snubbed in the running for the award. Mendy was outstanding as the European champions moved back to the top of the Premier League with a hard-fought 1-0 win in west London. “I’m happy and it is more important that he performs like this than he is on any list,” said the Chelsea manager.
