Earlier this morning, the unthinkable unfolded in the eyes of many Chelsea's fans. It's reported that the club parts company with their manager, Thomas Tuchel. On before that, the manager and his team lost to Dynamo Zagreb from Croatia with a goal in their first game of the champions league campaign.

The game against Dynamo Zagreb was his 100th match managing Chelsea Fc. He had previously won 60 matches, Lost 16 and drew 24. Judging by this stat, I think it was to early to get him sacked. Prior to his sacking, he won the uefa champions league, the uefa super cup and the club world cup in his first year after resuming work from former Chelsea player and Legend, Frank Lampard. On his second year of managing the team, he took the team to their third Fa cup final and also the carabao cup but lost to Liverpool on both finals. His last match also the seventh match this season was against Dynamo Zagreb, having lost two of the previous six league game, won three and drew one sat at the sixth position at the premier league table.

A lot of mixed feelings after he was got sacked, but my own honest opinion was that the sacking came too early but I had already seen it coming since the change of ownership of the club. It's Chelsea's thing to not take mediocre for an answer in managing their football club but according to stats, Thomas Tuchel hasn't failed as a manager. Though he was highly criticized for playing the so called "haram" football by playing five defenders in a 3-5-2 formation whereby getting wing backs left and right of the pitch. But the same "haram" football got him to the Champions league final and won it for the team since their last in May 2012 in Munich against Bayern Munich. He also used this style to win the first ever Club world cup for the cup after failing out to win the first in 2012 losing to Corinthians from Brazil.

There are so many questions on the lips of many sport journalist about the sacking, while a lot were saying it's too early, some still think it's nice for the new owner Todd Boehly to follow the tradition of the club. Prior to the sacking of Thomas Tuchel, Peter Cech and Marina Gravsionkia were also relieved of their job and ever since then, the new owner has been in control of all the activities of the club. Thomas Tuchel made some unforgettable memories with Chelsea and he also made some record transfer during his time. After sacking of the manager, the next outlook is replacement of the manger. There has been some names trending around including former Real Madrid player and Coach Zinedaine Zidane, current Brighton and Hove Albion Coach Graham Potter and former Paris saint German manager Mauricio Pochettino. If I had to choose of all these options, my preferred choice is Zidane but it seems so unlikely.

Not few hours after his sacking, Thomas Tuchel has been linked to Rb leipzig from Germany. He's quite an experienced manager and I trust he's going to do well in his next managerial role.
