IT was a good night in Europe for British clubs as Man Utd, Spurs and Rangers all secured first leg away wins, while all scoring four goals.

It’s been a tough week for the German, both personally and professionally, and Saturday’s 3-1 defeat at Leicester was symptomatic of a season that’s fallen apart at the seams.

Jorginho’s penalty was enough to win the three points for Chelsea at Tottenham on Thursday and all of a sudden the Thomas Tuchel’s side are up to sixth in the table.
