January 26 marks Tuchel's first anniversary in charge of Chelsea and the birthday of former Blues boss Jose Mourinho. After coaching the Blues, Tuchel won the Champions League, but his coaching record may still be inferior to Mourinho's.
The Portuguese have coached Chelsea twice, won the Premier League three times, won the League Cup three times and won the FA Cup. Mourinho, however, has never won the Champions League at the Blues.
After five months in charge of the Blues, Tuchel won the Big Ears trophy. After reaching the League Cup final, Tuchel is expected to win the title for the Blues again in February.
Comparing the data of Mourinho and Tuchel during his time at the helm of the Blues, it can be found that Tuchel still failed to reach the heights of the Portuguese.
In 67 games in charge of the Blues, Tuchel averaged 1.7 goals per game, conceded 0.6 goals, and kept 54 percent clean sheets and 60 percent of winning.
In terms of goals scored, Mourinho has managed the Blues on both occasions to average 1.8 goals per game, surpassing Tuchel. In terms of goals conceded per game, Mourinho scored 0.6 goals in the first period, equaling Tuchel and 0.9 goals in the second coaching.
In terms of clean sheets, the Portuguese were 51% in the first phase and 44% in the second phase, both significantly lower than Tuchel. In terms of the most important win rate, Mourinho was as high as 67% in the first period, significantly surpassing Tuchel and 59% in the second period.
Surprisingly, despite his reputation for defending, Mourinho is still inferior to Tuchel in terms of clean sheets, while Mourinho has the upper hand in all three other stats.
Chelsea have been in poor form recently, with just 1 win, 3 draws and 1 defeat in their last five Premier League games. If it weren't for this "episode", Tuchel's data would have been even better.
