TUCHEL IS SACKED

Thomas Tuchel has been relieved of his job as Chelsea coach after losing to Dinamo Zagreb in their first leg of the champions League. Although Tuchel pleaded for more time to turn things around after having so much challenges in keep up with Chelsea's performance in His past games but  was served a Sack letter. For now the coaching team will be in charge of Chelsea's training and fitness until a new coach is appointed. A €13m will be given to Tuchel as a sack compensation but is chelsea not making a mistake already?

It was really shocking for me hearing about Thomas Tuchel's sack this morning. I think the decision by Chelsea to part ways with Tuchel came too quick, the club is ungrateful for sacking Tuchel after winning the Champions league and Super Cup for Chelsea, I think he deserves more time and a chance to fix the team. Chelsea were not patient enough to give him the opportunity and that is bad of them.

Chelsea started the league really bad this year. I am not surprised that such a decision was made after yesterday's defeat to Dinamo Zagreb. Actually, he was a good coach and a valuable name for the team, but sometimes your performance is not enough, so it may have been good for him to leave the team.
A fresh start will be good for everyone. A team that we thought would be champions looks pretty unsuccessful right now

According to some parties, the decision made by the new owner of chelsea seemed very hasty and there were also some opinions that this decision was very appropriate, this was confirmed by chelsea activity in the summer window which was considered to have failed in purchasing players. But I don't accuse Tuchel of being the number 1 person in buying players in this transfer window because every decision of course has been carefully thought out by the Chelsea management. maybe chelsea style of play under tuchel direction is considered unsatisfactory where they can swallow a defeat to Dinamo zagreb in the UCL and also trigger an unsatisfactory result in the domestic league.

Napoli has done marvelous and wonderful in today's match i never believe that Liverpool will be such easy for Napoli to defeated with such aggregate of goals in today's matches. I believe that since the origin of Napoli they have never defeated Liverpool but today's winning just come under surprised to me. This is letting us know the changes that occur in football clubs, because winning it's no longer being determined by a club neither the coach but by the performance of the players in a team

What a surprising decision by Chelsea!

They weren't doing well of course but I still didn't expect them to sack Tuchel. By Aubameyang's arrival I was hoping to see them starting to get positive results in time. But they did this after the Dinamo Zagreb loss. I hope that Boehly knows what he is doing now. Pochettino is surely the main candidate for the role now. It is better to continue with a manager who knows this place and the team well for now. Pochettino is a decent manager unlike his not making Tottenham champions in the league. Hopefully he has a good chemistry with the players to improve the form in case Chelsea bring him here.

Todd Boehly is trying to minimize cost and maximize profit. He wants a manager that doesn't have a big profile. I think Chelsea should go for a not so popular coach. There isn't many options in the market for a manager. Graham Potter, Zinedine Zidane, and Pochettino are the mostly likely managers to get the job. Graham Potter is less fancy and has more experience in the premier league, Zidane has more experience in the champions league, Pochettino stock has dropped in the last year I don't think he will be Chelsea's first choice. The tussle is between Graham Potter and Zinedine Zidane.

I think the decision to sack Tuchel as Chelsea coach is the right decision because so far the team's performance has not been stable. The loss to Dinamo Zegreb was a disgrace, and let's not forget that defeats to Leeds United and Southamton were also considered prior to the sacking.

You can't expect everyone to agree on the decision because there are pros and cons. Even if Tuchel stays then I think he will be questioned if the team's poor form continues. Prevention is better than cure, so that's okay even though Tuchel was the one who had the most impact on Chelsea's form in the last 2 seasons.

The league is still very young to be sacking managers.  Chelsea made a harsh judgement, the new coach they are going to bring in will have to step up to the challenge and maintain Champions league spot. Manchester City seem to be the strongest on the league this season, I really worry they might win the league for the third time in a row this season with the way they are playing.

Tuchel paid the bad transition period of Chelsea. Many top players moved from the team, the president was forced to leave, unsuccessful transfer window... What they would expect? To be the first...
Now Liverpool is in the same path with the successive defeats.. The unbalanced wages distribution made Mane move to Bayern and with Salah drop, the situation is very bad there.

In my opinion, Tuchel has done his best to optimize Chelsea performance, sadly Cheslea doesn't have enough quality payers to perform as expected. We can't expect Chelsea to perform stable with Chelsea squad quality, it is decreasing much especially on the defensive and attacking lines. They just signed some new players this season, I think they need time to adapt to Tuchel's strategy. So, we can understand if Chelsea performance is difficult to stable. Too early to sack him because it is still the early of the season. Although Chelsea already lost 1 in UCL and 2 in EPL, they still have the chance to improve their position in EPL standings and in UCL group table.

You can't expect everyone to agree on the decision because there are pros and cons. Even if Tuchel stays then I think he will be questioned if the team's poor form continues. Prevention is better than cure, so that's okay even though Tuchel was the one who had the most impact on Chelsea's form in the last 2 seasons.

But the question now, can a new coach improve Chelsea performance?
A new coach can lead Chelsea to a worse performance than Tuchel.

[Smack That Ace]

Chelsea is showing their ambition. They are gunning for Titles, and can't afford a toothless coach to disrupt that plan. They have decided to part ways with Thomas Tuchel. Have you watched them recently? I recalled asking a fellow Chelsea fan of their creativity here. The results are better than the performance, how could a club with array of creative stars be having X.Gs in nos that are similar to the heart rate of a dead man. At the same time I blame the Owner, I mean why spending over 200m when you know you are not backing the manager for so long?? That’s not prudence of a business man.

And does the next manager guarantees them title? Tuchel is a great manager and I feel he should be given a bit more time. But I think something else must have gone wrong after the defeat, maybe some kind of argument between the manager and board and that lead to Tuchel's departure. Fofana , Sterling were the signings that Tuchel wanted but the exit of Tuchel without them allowing him time to experiment the new signings is something that is hard to swallow. I think something crazy went down behind the scenes that lead to Tuchel's departure.

Tuchel is no toothless coach as you say... I think he has great eye but like every manager he also needs time to settle things and that is something that board usually doesn't give. Tuchel came in as manager and won CL with Chelsea which is historic... They were the underdogs in that CL and came out as winner. I am sure the earlier owner would still have allowed some time to Tuchel.

There is no way I can tell whether Chelsea did the right thing or not. The answer to the question of whether this decision is good or bad is going to be determined later in the season.

For now, it does seem like Chelsea needed a change. The team needs a certain amount of ferocity in order to be successful. Currently, Thomas Tuchel is not bringing that level of expertise to the team, and this is a problem.

As a result, if he is going to bring in average results, then it is better to bring someone else who is going to be able to do a better job than him. But the question remains, will he be able to do a good job with the course which they are going to get, a better job than the one they had before?

If it’s Zidane or Mauricio Pochettino I think yes, There is a chance that the performance is going to improve. Other than that, I don't think there will be a great deal of improvement in terms of the site.

Napoli has done marvelous and wonderful in today's match i never believe that Liverpool will be such easy for Napoli to defeated with such aggregate of goals in today's matches. I believe that since the origin of Napoli they have never defeated Liverpool but today's winning just come under surprised to me. This is letting us know the changes that occur in football clubs, because winning it's no longer being determined by a club neither the coach but by the performance of the players in a team

Maybe Liverpool should do what Chelsea did because I believe Kloop is losing his position as one of the best managers in the English Premier League as a result of the team's poor performance this season. Liverpool were supposed to beat Napoli in the first half without even entering the second half last season, but they flopped in their first Champions League match due to a lack of form and poor performance. Liverpool needs to restructure their team and play partners, but if this trend continues, Kloop may be fired.

[Issa56]

Finally Chelsea realized that they needed something new especially Premier League leaves many matches this means that Chelsea is not too late

Seriously I don't think sacking the coach is a nice decision made, Thomas Tuchel is a good coach and intelligent coach, Chelsea haven't been performing well this season but I think only the coach shouldn't take the blame, i think is just to early for them to think the coach needs replacement, they should have given him more time seriously I was really disappointed when I saw the news. This dicison taken will definitely affect Chelsea in their next few matches, the probability of losing their next few matches is kind of high.

Liverpool losing today's match is not really bad, but the difference between Chelsea and Liverpool is that Chelsea lose their matches continuously so they deserve resolved so that the team will have life, even the fan or supporters of Chelsea is now bias of Chelsea because they know now that no match Chelsea is playing that will be in favor of Chelsea, if Liverpool change their coach as same of Chelsea maybe they will not have a good performance, Even as Chelsea remove their coach we are not sure of good conduct in the club for now.

Tuchel officially parted ways with Chelsea, this is certainly a very surprising decision. Many people do not understand what has been decided by the Chelsea officials. A string of bad results is suspected to be the cause, but I think this is very hasty. I dare say, the Chelsea era is over under Todd's control.

Chelsea football club are currently out of form with basic reason of the Russian billionaire leaving the club he was known to be a spender in the football market but this time the club Chelsea could not afford the kind of player they wanted the likes of Kingsley Coman, Kounde, Kimpembe, Ronaldo, Raphinha and more these are players Chelsea wanted to sign money was not released by new buyers to get these players this is one big factor that has affected Chelsea greatly

Should Liverpool choose go follow the trend and sack their manager. I wonder how many coaches can consolidate on what Jurgen Klopp has done in Liverpool. Before Klopp joined Liverpool, they were unstable and were not exactly considered serious title contenders in the EPL or champions league. Klopp has done so much for liverpool on seven years. Losing Sadio Mane who was a workaholic footballer is the reason Liverpool are this way at the moment.

Thomas Tuchel sack is one of the sacks that I can say that almost 90% of the people I discuss football with doesn't agree with, majority of Chelsea supporters are sad about it and I believe his sack is something beyond team performance. It could be that the manager has got big misunderstanding with the management or the management wants to change all old staff. If you observe alot of sackings has been happening in background, including Peter Czech and others.

It could be that the dude was under pressure all this while, you can easily tell from his reaction that day when he shook hands with Antonio Conte after their match with Tottenham, we also know that new management and the owner may mean a different contract, it is possible that man had a contract that he shouldn't allow any team defeat them in a row, so far they have been defeated by two teams and 1 champions league, it could be what really happening behind the scene and does are the things we don't see as a fan and supporters.

They weren't doing well of course but I still didn't expect them to sack Tuchel. By Aubameyang's arrival I was hoping to see them starting to get positive results in time.

I don't know if it was a wise decision to sack Thomas Tuchel just one month the season begins, I also think the transfer just close and some new players came to Chelsea to play under Thomas Tuchel such players will be disappointed with the news and that might curse set back to the new players adaptation,players like Aubameyan who has play under Tuchel at Dortmund will not be pleased, Chelsea are also lucky to sign more defensive players if not the new coach might inherit players that don't suit their style, defensive players will always play to new system.

Chelsea football club are currently out of form with basic reason of the Russian billionaire leaving the club he was known to be a spender in the football market but this time the club Chelsea could not afford the kind of player they wanted the likes of Kingsley Coman, Kounde, Kimpembe, Ronaldo, Raphinha and more these are players Chelsea wanted to sign money was not released by new buyers to get these players this is one big factor that has affected Chelsea greatly

They already brought quite a number of new players while releasing more so I don't think it's just an issue of money now. It's essentially a new team if you look at all those transfers and it's kinda expected that they will need more time to work things out.  Their form will be the same even if they bought those players you mentioned.

People are always underestimate another club just because it was not from EPL. Liverpool has been giving very bad performance since penalty was happening. it seems like that if any game will become a difficult game for EPL clubs in champion's league. Almost all of premier club have been facing difficult battle except manchester city which is giving a very good performance. It seems like city was the only team that can become a winner on its group.
Another EPL team has been struggling with its performance.

Chelsea's performance is not too good in the Premier League, but I believe the Chelsea management can still accept it. What makes Tuchel sacked is
most likely due to Chelsea's defeat against Dinamo Zagreb, it makes Chelsea management very disappointed. Indeed, Chelsea should be able to
beat Dinamo Zagreb with the quality of Chelsea's players. Moreover, Chelsea has spent a very large transfer fee to bring in several new players,
so seeing Chelsea beaten by Dinamo Zagreb is something that is unacceptable.

Although I was also surprised by Tuchel's sacking, but I can understand the decision Chelsea management has made by sacking Tuchel.
I hope Chelsea can bring in a replacement for Tuchel soon, there are several candidates so far that have been rumored to be Tuchel's replacement.
But of the many names that have emerged as a replacement for Tuchel, perhaps Graham Potter is the main target of Chelsea. Graham Potter
became famous after successfully making Brighton in the top 4, although the Premier League still has a long way to go, but Brighton's form is
considered outstanding so far. Even Fabrizio Romano reported Chelsea had moved to have talks with Potter, so there's a chance Graham Potter
will be Tuchel's replacement. We'll see what's going on in the news soon, is it true that Graham Potter will be the new Chelsea coach or not.
