Chelsea have appointed Thomas Tuchel as their new boss on Tuesday, following the sacking of Frank Lampard. The German specialist's first game as the Blues boss came a day after and he played a 1-1 draw with Wolves. Tuchel has offered hope of an inspiring future. However, the boss will need players who will help him achieve trophies at Stamford Bridge. And three Chelsea players could benefit from Tuchel's appointment. Surprisingly, Lampard's favourite Mason Mount is one of them. Billy Gilmour is also on the line, while the third star is experienced N'Golo Kante. Tuchel has made inspiring comments on Mount, which gives a hint that he will include the England player in his Chelsea plans. "I wanted to take the weight off their shoulders [Mount and Billy Gilmour," said Tuchel. "Of course when I told them I am absolutely sure they can handle the weight. I have no trust issues. "I wanted to give the responsibility in this special moment to a bit more experienced players and have them in hand to have strong guys from the bench. There is nothing to worry about. like what I see from Mason so far, from his personality that I get to know now from three days. It’s amazing. "Such a nice guy, such a competitive guy, such a lot of talent. And the most important – every game I watch so far he leaves his heart on the pitch. He cares for Chelsea 100 percent. He gives the 100 percent he has every time he plays and this is the best basis for a big development. "I am very happy to have him around. I will not stop pushing him, I will not stop guiding him, I will not stop trusting him. There is absolutely nothing to worry about." On youngster Billy Gilmour, Tuchel added: "For Billy the same in a different personal moment for him because he didn’t play the biggest role like Mason did in the last weeks. Maybe the decision for Mason yesterday was the toughest and we spoke about this in person. "For Billy I have a good impression. He is a very strategic guy. A very high level of game understanding. Very good in the first contact. Very clever in positioning. We see if he has the physical level. If he can compete in the centre of the field in the most physical league in the world. We will see that, but he is super quick, super fast with his feet. Super fast with his decision making and very, very good in positioning. "We have right now 21, 22 field players available, playing three competitions. There is absolutely no need that we have to get rid of players." Despite the fact, that Kante had to fight against injuries the big part of the season, he still remains a key player at Stamford Bridge and Tuchel confirmed it. "I think he’s the strongest in the double six, the centre and the heart of the game. Gives him little more freedom than when he plays a single six, what he can do. But for me he is a double six because we can use his energy and we can use his range and his volume in his game. His ability to recuperate and recover balls everywhere on the pitch. "He is a guy who is a big, big helper for everybody, with the mentality of a helper, a water carrier, but at the same time a world-class player who played a crucial role in the World Cup win for France. That’s why he’s super important to have him and for me the double six is the best role because it gives him a bit more freedom than the single six which demands a bit more discipline on the position and maybe cuts his wings a little bit, but I am sure he can also play there."
