(Reuters) - Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel downplayed his side's subdued performance in a 1-1 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League, attributing their lack of cutting edge to frustration at slipping up in the title race.

Chelsea's players were far from their best in the draw, which extended their winless run in the league to four games and left them 12 points behind leaders Manchester City, having played a game more.
