Chelsea manager Tuchel: We have everything to compete against any opponent

Thomas Tuchel insists he has enough talent at Chelsea to compete against any team in the world.

The Blues travel to Anfield on Thursday to face Liverpool, who are hoping to continue their momentum after snapping a losing streak last weekend.

And Tuchel says his side does not fear playing against the reigning champions.

"We always have a chance to win any game because we have self-confidence, we have good shape, we have everything we need to win against every team, and this will be a tough opponent," he said.

"At the same time you can always lose games in the Premier League, because it's the toughest competition you can play in.

"They have dropped points recently, sometimes deserved but also many times not deserved and there was a streak of very unlucky results. It is one of the best teams in Europe, with one of the best managers in Europe. There is no doubt about it, but we are confident enough to go there and prepare ourselves for what we need to do to win, which is nothing else than a top performance."
