A new era begins at Chelsea, and it’ll start with a visit from Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday night. Frank Lampard is terminated, after just one season and a half. His replacement, himself fired by Paris Saint-Germain just before Christmas, is Thomas Tuchel.
Reports had indicated that Roman Abramovich wanted to hire somebody who speaks German and Tuchel does indeed possess that trait. Perhaps he can be the Havertz and Werner whisperer then? Maybe he’ll get the most out of these two high priced German internationals acquired in the summer? Lampard obviously could not.
