Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is surprised by the sacking of Jose Mourinho by Tottenham.
Mourinho has been shown the door less than a week before the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City, with academy coach Ryan Mason to take first-team training.
Speaking to reporters on Monday afternoon, current Chelsea boss Tuchel said: “More or less I am always a bit surprised when it happens.
“We are all competitors and we try to beat each other but in the end we wish all managers have a good atmosphere.
“It never feels good as another manager. Everybody fights hard for results and when a big decision like this comes it was a surprise.
“I honestly did not see it coming."
