Chelsea fans are all saying the same thing about Thomas Tuchel after Bayern Munich’s loss last night

Former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel had another game to forget as Bayern Munich boss last night.

Bayern were beaten 1-0 by Lazio in the first leg of their last-16 Champions League tie.

It comes after their 3-0 loss against Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, which has left them five points behind Xabi Alonso’s men in the title race.

Following their latest defeat, Chelsea fans now think Thomas Tuchel is going to lose his job like how he did at Stamford Bridge.

“Tuchel is definitely getting sacked,” one supporter said on X.

“Tuchel is gone,” another wrote.

If Bayern do sack Tuchel, it means he would have been dismissed from his last three jobs after getting the boot at both Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.

Were Chelsea right to sack Thomas Tuchel?

Looking at how his Bayern team are currently performing and his last few games in charge as Chelsea manager, some will now be arguing yes.

But at the end of the day, Tuchel is still an elite coach and Chelsea have only gone in one direction since he left the club.

Who knows where they would be if the German, who is a Champions League-winning manager, was still in the Stamford Bridge dugout?

What’s done is done now and hopefully Mauricio Pochettino can take the club back to where they once were. He has a great opportunity to get the ball rolling again when Chelsea take on Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley next Sunday. Win that, qualify for the Europa League and then get the Blues back into the top four next season, and no Chelsea supporter will bring up Tuchel’s name for a while.

However, until success is brought back to Stamford Bridge, some fans are always going to ask the question: why on earth did the club sack their Champions League-winning manager?
