Thomas Tuchel was in a mood to lament after having dropped two crucial points at home to Brighton on Wednesday.
Romelu Lukaku led Chelsea but they failed to add to their lead and came back through an injury-time equalizer from Danny Welbeck.

Callum Hudson-Odoi was guilty of wasting a brilliant 1-0 chance, oddly passing straight to Joel Veltman as he tried to take out Mason Mount instead of taking the shot himself.
Mount is the Blues’ top scorer in the Premier League this time with seven, while Jorginho is on six and Lukaku is on five.
But a frustrated Tuchel’s winger has failed to step up with the goal when his manager needs him.
Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic are on two for the season while Hudson-Odoi, Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech have one each.
And with the January transfer window open on Saturday, SunSport’s weight five wingers Chelsea could try and sign…
Eden Hazard
There is no doubt in his day that Hazard was one of the best wingers in the world for most of his seven years at Stamford Bridge.

The problem is that the 30-year-old hasn’t had many of his days off since leaving Chelsea for Real Madrid in 2019.
Reports suggest that Los Blancos want Reis James – and will be willing to give the Belgian back to the Blues – to make a deal.
Federico Chiesa
The 24-year-old Italian winger has been a rare attraction for Juventus in a disappointing season for the old lady.
6
He followed several Chelsea stars on Instagram, sending blues fans into a frenzy in November as West Londoners consider a £84million bid.
With Chiesa technically still on loan from Fiorentina, Tuchel could be forced to wait until the summer when the Euro 2020 hero joins Juve permanently.
Allan Saint-Maximin
Like Chiesa at Juventus, Saint-Maximin has had rare success on the pitch for Newcastle this season.
6
With his moves, dribbling, and entertainment, it’s clear to see why he’s a fan favorite at St. James’ Park.
But with Toon in a relegating fight, Chelsea may be trying to persuade the 24-year-old Frenchman to make it to the Champions League instead of the championship next season.
Osman Dembele
There has been a lot of discussion this season about the future of 24-year-old Ousmane Dembele.
6
The Barcelona winger’s contract at the Nou Camp expires at the end of the season and has declined his latest offer of an extension.
To avoid losing him for nothing, Barca may be ready to strike a cut-price deal to sell Dembele in January – but will he be helpful to Chelsea given his poor goalscoring return and injury record with is not clear.
rafinha
There are a lot of similarities between Saint-Maximin in Newcastle and Rafinha in Leeds – this season’s standout star whom fans know are lucky.
6
Rafinha, 25, has scored eight goals under Marcelo Bielsa and has received a lot of praise for the period as talks of a new contract are underway.
But Brazil will certainly have a chance to strut their stuff on the biggest stages as Chelsea, Liverpool and Bayern Munich reportedly show interest.
