Former Chelsea boss, Thomas Tuchel has expressed pride for his achievement with the London club after his time there came to an end.
Tuchel was recently sacked by the club after after suffering a 1-0 defeat against Dinamo Zagreb in their opening day Champions League game.
His dismissal by the club is seen as fast for a manager that is trying to build something great in a short while. He has since been replaced by former Brighton manager, Graham Potter.

He had led Chelsea to impressive wins at the Champions League and FIFA Club World Cup before his sack.
Releasing a statement on Sunday night, the former Dortmund and PSG manage said he is honoured to be part of the club.
“The pride and joy I felt at helping the team to win the Champions League and the Club World Cup will stay with me forever. I am honoured to have been a part of this club’s history and the memories of the last 19 months will always have a special place in my heart.
“This is a club where I felt at home, both professionally and personally. Thank you so much to all the staff, the players and the supporters for making me feel very welcome from the start.
“This is one of the most difficult statements I have ever had to write – and it is one which I hoped I would not need to do for many years. I am devastated that my time at Chelsea has come to an end.”
