Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted that he 'feels sorry' for Thomas Tuchel after the German was sacked by Chelsea on Wednesday following the London club's underwhelming start to the season.
The former Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain boss was dismissed after winning three trophies in 20 months. The Blues, who are sixth in the Premier League after three wins, one draw and two defeats, lost 1-0 to Dinamo Zagreb in their first Champions League game of the season on Tuesday night.
Tuchel - who replaced Frank Lampard as Chelsea manager in January 2021 - guided the club to their second Champions League title just four months later, and went on to add the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup later that year.
