Choccy horror show! Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel admits it took 'copious' amounts of chocolate to help with the stress of re-watching his side's loss against Real Madrid in Europe

Thomas Tuchel rewatched Chelsea's Champions League defeat by Real Madrid in full after getting home from Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night, saying it took copious amounts of chocolate to get him through the miserable 90 minutes.

Tuchel also watched back the 3-1 first-leg loss in full the following morning with his analysts and that only angered him further.

'The feeling lasted,' said Chelsea's manager, who wants to get their season back on track at Southampton on Saturday after also losing 4-1 in their last Premier League match to Brentford.
