One of the main issues facing Chelsea this season has been their inability to form a dominant front-three.<\/p>\n

At first glance, Chelsea\u2019s 48 goals from 24 Premier League games \u2013 the 3rd<\/sup>-highest in the division behind Liverpool and Manchester City \u2013 suggests that there isn\u2019t really that much of a goal-scoring issue at Chelsea.<\/p>\n

However, a 7-0 win over Norwich does help paper over the cracks somewhat. In the Premier League, meanwhile, Jorginho (7) and Mason Mount (6), are the Londoners\u2019 current top scorers this term.<\/p>\n

This all comes despite the fact Chelsea have a wealth of attacking options at their disposal. Romelu Lukaku was scoring for fun at Inter Milan last year and is a proven Premier League goalscorer for three other clubs. Timo Werner was one of the Bundesliga\u2019s top scorers in his last seaosn at RB Leipzig and Kai Havertz was a serious prospect before he signed for Chelsea.<\/p>\n

So what has gone wrong? Well, whilst all the blame cannot be put on Tuchel as Werner was struggling before he arrived, The Athletic<\/a> have now provided a potential reason for Chelsea\u2019s attack not quite clicking under their current boss.<\/p>\n

It is reported that the mood among many of Chelsea\u2019s attackers isn\u2019t good. Part of the reason for this is due to the way Tuchel uses and treats them.<\/p>\n

Chelsea attackers to consider leaving<\/h2>\n

Another point of tension has been the way Tuchel talks to his attackers. With one source describing the former PSG man\u2019s manner as \u2018brutal\u2019, with players regularly subjected to a barrage of criticism for every wrong decision and missed chance.<\/p>\n

In turn, this is said to have led to Chelsea\u2019s attackers second-guessing themselves, not playing on instinct and being afraid to try things and risk giving the ball away.<\/p>\n

Perhaps most concerningly of all though, The Athletic claim that the situation has grown serious enough for some of Chelsea\u2019s attackers to start considering leaving in the summer.<\/p>\n
