LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea were uncharacteristically sloppy and showed signs of rust after a two-week international break which led to their 5-2 Premier League home loss to West Bromwich Albion, manager Thomas Tuchel said on Saturday.

Chelsea, who had previously conceded only two league goals since Tuchel took charge in January, were reduced to 10 men when Thiago Silva was sent off in the first half and went on to suffer their worst home defeat for nearly 10 years.
