Marcos Alonso has aimed a fresh dig at after claiming took a massive ‘tactical’ step forward once was appointed as mananger.

Club legend Lampard was sacked last January following a dismal run of results which culminated in him losing the dressing room with a number of senior players voicing their disatifaction.

Italy midfielder Jorginho was among Lampard’s fiercest critics, but Marcos Alonso was totally frozen out by the club legend following a 3-3 draw against West Bromwich Albion.

The decision to hire Tuchel, however, revived the fortunes of both Chelsea and Alonso who has rivalled Ben Chilwell for the position of the club’s first choice left-back this season, with the England international’s serious injury offering him a route back into the team.

And Spanish defender Alosno has detailed how Tuchel picked up the pieces and guided them to European glory, saying in an interview with Spanish outlet :  ‘We were a very balanced team. In these close qualifiers, the little details make the difference. 

‘We were a team in every way. We defended very well, we were an uncomfortable team to play with, we defended all eleven and the small details made the difference. 

‘At this point in the Champions League everything is very even and it depends on very small details.’

Reports, meanwhile, suggested Lampard was furious Alonso for leaving the Hawthorns after he was dragged off at the break with his side trailing 3-0.

But Alonso said earlier this year: ‘I was not happy, of course, with how the game went and everything, but it was not any intention to do that (storm out).

‘I spoke to my team-mates straight afterwards, if someone felt offended or something. But everyone was OK.

‘The manager didn’t take it well but I explained everything that happened. He thought I left before the end of the game but I told him no.’
