When asked about the performance of Ziyech Tuchel agreed with his player as, he said: "It was one of his best matches today because he was very reliable. It was also maybe his best position to be on the wing.
"We had the wide position on the right wing, that position does not normally exist in that particular manner when we play 3-4-3, it is more of a wing back."
This could lead to Chelsea permanently switching their formation as their attackers lookde much more comfortable, creating several chances with clever pieces of link-up.
Working in the Blues' favour, the formation exploited the space that Spurs were leaving in behind and Ziyech took advantage of this on several ocassions, being the real bright spark for Tuchel's side in the 2-0 victory.
