Jorginho has suggested that he and his Chelsea teammates feel partly

Tuchel is the second Premier League manager to get sacked at the start of this
campaign.
Chelsea did not quite win the sack race as AFC Bournemouth beat them to take
that accolade as they have parted company with Scott Parker.
The Blues decided to sack Tuchel after the club lost three of their first seven

and Dinamo Zagreb.

But reports have suggested that Tuchel’s exit is more down to him butting heads

Around £250m was spent during the summer but Tuchel and Boehly disagreed
over several targets, including Man Utd’s Cristiano Ronaldo.

term after winning the Champions League in 2020/21.

The London club were expected to challenge for the title but they ended up 19
points adrift of champions Manchester City.

Chelsea’s start to the new campaign leaves them sixth in the table. They are
already five points adrift of league leaders Arsenal.
Jorginho has now admitted that “not one person is responsible” for Chelsea’s
struggles:

Jorginho is impressed by what he’s seen of Potter in his first few training
sessions. He thinks Chelsea’s new manager “is going to do very well”:
