      Give him £250 million to spend, then sack him as soon as the window's closed. Genius.

    I’m not a Chelsea fan but what!!! One loss in the CL group stage. Worlds gone mad and there must be something else going on behind the scenes!!!

    Good to see the spirit of the previous regime lives on. Shocked he's gone so soon.

    The sacking of managers so early in a season is becoming more and more bizarre. Are Chelsea bottom of the league and out of the CL?

    Insane. Even Abramovich would say that is a bit hasty.

    Can VAR not review this decision for him ha ha?

    Should have been given more time....
    ....to take them even closer to mediocrity.

    Ridiculous decision. Club is a circus.

    Spend £300m and then sack your manager, what?

  • Comment posted by Sheepy, today at 10:19

    Chelsea have a proud history of sacking fantastic managers.

    Tuchel will get a great job elsewhere and a superb pay off.

    Hopefully Chelsea get John Terry

    He wanted out and they wanted him out.

    Why let him spend all that money in the transfer window then sack him after it closes for another manager to work with players that are not his? I don’t get it

    He lost the plot at Chelsea the same as he did at PSG. So much money but so little actual plan.

    Go for elite manager Brendan Rodgers 👍👍👍

    We'll give you a good deal on him like we gave you for Fofana!... 😉
