Marco van Basten admits he’s saddened by Hakim Ziyech’s struggles at Chelsea and has accused Thomas Tuchel of treating the Moroccan badly.
Ziyech was one of a number of big-money players brought in to strengthen Frank Lampard’s squad in the summer. The former Ajax winger showed some initial promise but has struggled with injuries and form since. The same has gone for several of the other summer signings and it cost Lampard his job.
Replacement manager Tuchel has revitalised Chelsea’s campaign since taking the job in January. He has only tasted defeat twice as Blues boss and has led them to the Champions League semi-finals.
