Chelsea struck three times in the space of eight minutes prompting the normally hardy Burnley fans to head for the exits well before the end.
Tuchel had plenty to resolve at the break and judging by the upturn in his team’s performance he did just that.
James, starting his first game since December, opened the scoring two minutes after the interval, drilling a shot into the far, bottom corner after turning Dwight McNeil inside out.

Havertz then pulled away from his marker Connor Roberts to head home a nicely floated cross from Christian Pulisic to make it 2-0 for the visitors.
The German then had another simple finish, converting a James cross from close range, and Pulisic had the easiest of tasks scoring after Burnley defender James Tarkowski diverted a Saul Niguez cross into his path.
The victory strengthens Chelsea’s place in 3rd with 53 points, 13 points behind leaders Manchester City while Burnley stay in 18th place on 21 points.
