According to Alistair Magowan of the BBC…
" Decision taken over the course of the last 100 days since ownership took charge, and would have been taken regardless of the result against Dinamo Zagreb last night. So not about results but wider issues

• It is understood that Tuchel lost the confidence of the players and the board in recent times and had become less communicative with both groups
• Chelsea need a manager who is for the long-term who buys into the collaborative culture and has focus and determination to take the club to the next level
• Part of that is developing not only young, but all players in the squad, which it was felt was not happening
• New signings were down to collaboration of board and Tuchel, so not right to say that they were all Tuchel targets, and he became less involved as time went on
• An interim coaching staff will be appointed from within the club, but Chelsea hope to make a swift appointment as Tuchel's replacement"

I thought part of the reason for buying Aubamayang was his relationship with Tuchel - it’s all very odd if they knew he had no future. Maybe having Tuchel as their coach was attractive to potential transfer targets and that’s why he wasn’t sacked earlier ?

Well I think that rationale rules out any move for Zidane then

Graham Potter is their first choice, says the Guardian…

Does the Guardian have a history of getting this stuff right? Or the bookies...according to the BBC...
Brighton manager Graham Potter, former Tottenham and Paris St-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino and ex-Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane are among the early favourites with bookmakers to replace Tuchel.

Maybe they will start bringing back the huge youth squad that is spread all over the world on loan agreements and call an end to the big spending of the Roman era

Does any paper or broadsheet have any history of getting it right

Dunno, hence the question
According to the BBC, it's the bookies who have him in the running (post edited above, I don't read newspapers/their websites, just get my football news from the BBC as it's easy!)
