Tuchel's first words as Chelsea coach

Thomas Tuchel introduced himself as Chelsea's coach after Lampard left.

The German coach has taken up his new job at the Premierliga team and says he is eager to meet the team.

“I would like to thank Chelsea for their trust in me and my staff..”

“We all have the highest respect for Frank Lambard's work and the legacy he created in Chelsea. At the same time, I look forward to meeting my new team and competing in the most exciting football league. I'm grateful that I'm now part of Chelsea's family, feeling amazing.”, he said.

Lamard was dismissed after poor results in the first half of the season, with an average of lower points in Abramovich's era.
