Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang quotes backfire on him as Thomas Tuchel sacked

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been made to look slightly foolish after his reunion with Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea lasted just a matter of days.

The Gabonese forward signed for the Blues in the closing hours of the summer transfer window following half a season with Spanish giants Barcelona. The move to Stamford Bridge was set to see him play under former Borussia Dortmund manager Tuchel - the pair having struck up an excellent relationship with the Bundesliga giants.
