Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has said that he "can't fathom" Chelsea's decision to sack Thomas Tuchel.
The Blues have had a difficult start to the season having won just three of their six Premier League matches so far. Tuesday night's Champions League defeat to Dinamo Zagreb was clearly the tipping point for Chelsea's new owners, as Todd Boehly decided enough is enough.
With the departure of Roman Abramovich, and the change of ownership at the club, many fans thought that a new era of patience might be on the horizon in West London. Following United's four successive league wins under Erik ten Hag, the Reds sit above Chelsea in the table as the club bids farewell to Tuchel.
