Will fit right in at Chelsea then.
Chelsea appoint Thomas Tuchel

- Start date
I'm sure if he had a choice between Chelsea and Newcastle there is only one winner.
Allegri is far better than him
Not sure about the FA Cup but yes to CL (AVB got a medal through the post in 2012) and i'd imagine he would for the league as he managed a significant part of the season and the player qualification (for a medal quota) is 5.
Allegri left Juve what 3 seasons ago? Wtf is he waiting on? I wanted Chelsea to give Lampard longer
I’m black. I’m a massive fan of Demba Ba. But doesn’t seem like Tuchel said anything wrong here? I don’t think there’s any blame on Tuchel. And the whole racism incident was a little overblown but credit to Demba for taking no shit from anyone and defending himself.
I mean, he'll be gone in 2 or 3 years and we all know it.
Why not? If he is blaming Ba and his teammates then it's wrong.
Sounds like Tuchel is saying Demba and the black coach misheard the refs.

They fired Frank Lampard?
Talk he might get the Roma job if there's a change there soon.
I have no idea. As per Ba, Tuchel was blaming the players. I haven't followed this story.
Can we get a sack watch thread up and running? Will need it eventually.
Yep.
You're hours late, there already is one! Had to be a record, given he's not actually been appointed yet.
FFS, should have checked properly
Yes. Harsh decision.
From a Manchester United view point Tuchel as I think he will be mediocre.
From a neutral view Eddie Howe. As I would like to see how he does* with a better team and larger budget.
Edited from dies (bit harsh) to does.

Chelsea to fly high, and touch the sky. Easy top 4 finish. This guy is good.
Ooh, harsh. I have my doubts as to Eddie's capability to run a big club but I certainly wouldn't want to see any fatalities.
I know it is stressful as a manager at Chelski, but hopefully not that bad...
Ha ha typo
Ok edit time
Typical day in the life of a Chelsea person today. Tuschel will go well in the short term, maybe get them top 4 and an FA Cup/league cup after another doddle of a draw to the final, then things will start to go downhill this time next year and he’ll be sacked and on his way out the door. Rinse and repeat culture.
Is he Tuchel for school?

Hope you're okay my friend. Amidst all the banter and what not obvious a difficult day for the club and fans (@duffer include you too).
I don't get it. Signing a recently sacked manager is all kinds of wrong.
99% of managers are sacked.
Hah appreciate it mate! I've been increasingly accepting that a change was warranted given our form over the past two months. I'll certainly hold my hands up and confess to having drunk a fair bit of the Kool Aid earlier this year - definitely a shocking fall from grace very quickly but if the stories are to be believed it makes sense given the discord behind the scenes.
Personally I'm able to compartmentalize the feelings I have towards Lampard the player and Lampard the manager (and Lampard the man, but perhaps that's a touchy subject). I'll forever look up to him as a player and I'm grateful for the job he did last year, but the fact is he's proved out of his depth when it comes to managing a top squad. I think if he learns from this and goes to a midtable club, he might well get them to overachieve the way he did for us last year, but he clearly has issues in terms of managing top players.
Doesn't this thread title need to be changed?
They've been talking to him for a few weeks I reckon. Once Abramovich has made his mind up that's it.
Tuchel will probably have a couple of seasons there do what he usually does and slag the board off and will be sacked.

But he was sacked days ago! Deemed a failure with a state-backed oil club.
Was his sacking performance related or a personality clash/disagreement about finances?
I laughed but racism is no laughing matter
Yet another punchable face in the PL.
Ze Germans.
Ze Germans.
Allegri's football is brutal. Gets results, by and large, but it's mind numbing to watch. Most of the top clubs seem to be shying away from purely results based managers at this point.
