CHELSEA HAVE PARTED company with head coach Thomas Tuchel following last night’s Champions League defeat to Dinamo Zagreb.
The Premier League club insists it’s ‘the right time to make this transition’ as the new ownership group – led by Todd Boehly – begin the search for a new boss barely a month into the season.
In a statement released on the Chelsea website, they explained: “On behalf of everyone at Chelsea FC, the Club would like to place on record its gratitude to Thomas and his staff for all their efforts during their time with the Club.
“Thomas will rightly have a place in Chelsea’s history after winning the Champions League, the Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here.
“As the new ownership group reaches 100 days since taking over the Club, and as it continues its hard work to take the club forward, the new owners believe it is the right time to make this transition.
“Chelsea’s coaching staff will take charge of the team for training and the preparation of our upcoming matches as the Club moves swiftly to appoint a new head coach.
“There will be no further comment until a new head coach appointment is made.”
“Roche’s goal is the not only better than Robin van Persie’s and James Rodriguez’s, they argue, but it’s also harder to recreate”
Great goal and all and im aure she is a quality player but come on she scored it against wexford youths womens team.
Not Spain or Uruguay in a world cup.
Not saying i could score a goal like that cause i couldnt kick my way out of a paper bag
But you will see a goal of its calibre at any astroturf around the country.
I can’t wait for her not to win it so we don’t have to keep hearing about it
I hope she wears a nice dress for the awards night.
Stephanie Roche-Great Goal…
