The Englishman was shell-shocked after failing to score against Frank Lampard’s side who were fighting out to avoid the relegation zone.
The Blues came out with a single point last weekend following the shocking loss against Everton and a disappointing result versus Man United.
Everton’s superstar Richarlison stepped up the plate for the Toffees to give his side a 1-0 victory over Chelsea, including a rare clean sheet for Jordan Pickford.
The 26-year-old midfielder spoke to the club’s official website stating that his teammates need to stick together as a team and players must take the blame individually.
“It’s up to us as individuals to tune in and sharpen up as a team together. Getting everyone ready for the game, these are basics in football. If you don’t have these basics, you will struggle like we have the last four games.”
The former Chelsea academy graduate also mentioned that the team needs to level up their performance in order to book themselves a place in the Champions League.
“This is not Chelsea standard at all. Our concentration levels were not good enough.
We want top four but we cannot perform like that with other teams doing well around us. We need wins.
It is hard to process it right now and we will look back at it once the emotions have calmed down.”
Individual blunders in Thomas Tuchel’s backline have begun to hurt the capital club in their league run, which Loftus-Cheek was conveying to his teammates in the interview.
The two-time Champions League winners will face Liverpool in the FA Cup on May 14th, in what will be their most meaningful game of the season.
Tuchel has done an excellent job with the man-management of his players, and it won’t be difficult for him to correct the errors before the Cup final.
