According to the UK Sun, Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel upset his players by bringing them into training on what was supposed to be their day off.

Tuchel is looking for solutions to break the team's recent slump ahead of this weekend's FA Cup final against Liverpool.

Players are said to be upset about being called in on Sunday because they are weary after playing 59 games in all competitions this season.

Defender Marcos Alonso believes he was made a scapegoat in the Wolves game and that his effort was called into doubt by being pulled at half-time.

The players are beginning to think their chances of fighting for the Premier League title next season are in jeopardy because of the imminent exits of leaders such as Cesar Azpilicueta and Antonio Rudiger.

Chelsea are currently third in the Premier League table, but their recent form means that they are in danger of letting that spot slip. They are just one point ahead of Arsenal and five ahead of Tottenham.

The Blues travel to relegation-threatened Leeds on Wednesday evening, before they have the chance to lift silverware in Saturday’s cup final at Wembley.
