Romelu Lukaku's future at Chelsea in doubt after Thomas Tuchel drops him from team for Liverpool clash

He was signed for nearly 100 million pounds about 6 months ago but Romelu Lukaku now finds himself in the bad books of Chelsea's manager Thomas Tuchel. In fact, the Belgian international who has been the central figure in Chelsea's Starting XI in all games was dropped from the side that played a 2-2 draw against Liverpool.

Lukaku's fault was that he spoke against his manager's tactics in the media. Lukaku's controversial interview with Sky Italia where he questioned Tuchel's tactics was the tipping point and according to reports, the interview left Tuchel and the senior members of Chelsea management fuming. Tuchel before the game against Liverpool even said that the interview created 'too much noise' and wanted to keep the team away from it and went on to drop Lukaku from the squad.

Chelsea went on to earn a hard fought draw against Liveprool as they returned from 2 goals down to finish the game at 2-2 but surely Lukaku's presence on field would have tilted the balance in Chelsea's favour.
