Chelsea and Thomas Tuchel 'parted ways' on Wednesday morning after a Champions League loss to Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia.
Chelsea have had a shaky start to the new season, with losses to Leeds United, Southampton and now Dinamo Zagreb, coming after a hectic summer that saw over 20 players leave the club and six first-team players join the squad.
The Blues have yet to look convincing in many of their games so far, but the sacking of Tuchel will come as a huge surprise after the success the German brought to the club - including a Champions League trophy and two cup final losses via penalty shoot-outs.
