Lukaku is mentally tired after draining year, says Tuchel

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel admits he is questioning how to manage Romelu Lukaku amid serious concerns over the striker's workload in a scenario similar to Cristiano Ronaldo's at Manchester United.

When Romelu Lukaku returned to Stamford Bridge this summer, he was billed as the missing piece of the Chelsea puzzle.

The Belgian arrived back in the Premier League in a £97.5million transfer after a fruitful two seasons with Inter Milan during which he cemented his status as one of Europe's best strikers.

Lukaku made an instant impact, scoring four goals in the first four appearances of his second spell with the Blues.

However, the 28-year-old's brilliant start fizzled out and he has failed to find the back of the net in his last six games.

Just as it was last season, Chelsea's strength has been in their defence rather than their attack in recent fixtures.
