A bad start to the season and a sacking. Tuchel ended up on the Chelsea bench
Chelsea have to look for a new manager. After a miserable start to the new season, in which Chelsea lost to Leeds and Southampton, for example, there will be a change in the coaching position.
Chelsea have to look for a new manager. After a miserable start to the new season, in which Chelsea lost to Leeds and Southampton, for example, there will be a change in the coaching position. the 49-year-old Thomas Tuchel has been sacked after 99 games on the bench of the club from the capital.
It all came to a close with yesterday’s surprise defeat in the Champions League opener against Dinamo Zagreb. In general, however, Chelsea did not present the dominant impression we would expect from them in matches.
A record of three wins, one draw and two losses in the Premier League has not been satisfactory for new owner Todd Boehly. And so the former PSG or Dortmund coach returns to the football job market.
But at the same time with one interesting statistic. For the first time in his professional career, he has coached less than 100 games for an “A” team.
Saturday’s game between Chelsea and Fulham was supposed to be a jubilee for the experienced coach. And a coach who won the Champions League and Super Cup titles just after taking up his post at Chelsea.
In domestic competition, Tuchel’s charges were not getting past Liverpool and Manchester City. But it was the Citizens that the German pilot beat in the aforementioned duel for the Eared Cup. Since then, however, it has been without a major trophy at domestic level.
The reactions of Chelsea fans have been mostly negative. Supporters are talking about a big mistake by the management and rightly asking who will become Tuchel’s successor. There are generally few coaches on the market of similar quality to the one who can call himself a Champions League winner.
