Chelsea supervisor, Thomas Tuchel, has hailed the private qualities of Manchester City’s playmaker, Kevin De Bruyne.

Tuchel stated the Belgian was the difference between both teams, as City won 1-0 on Saturday.

De Bruyne shrugged off an obstacle from N’Golo Kante to fire in the winner at the Etihad, as the champs went 12 points clear at the top of the table.

Speaking to Sky Sports after the video game, Tuchel stated: “We need consistency. We might have had a lot more opportunities if we played with better timing, much better accuracy.

“That you miss out on possibilities, there is no issue because, however we could have had far more chances. That’s what I’m important about. The ball losses were prematurely and too poor and the decision-making was not on the level we need.

“The individual quality of Kevin De Bruyne made the difference today but we had a hard time to show the quality to actually harm them and score the very first goal and bring some doubts into their game.”
