Chelsea Training Session & Press Conference

This was the reverse fixture of the season. It was Chelsea’s turn to travel to Turin. Things had changed a lot since Chelsea last played Juventus. Chelsea were win-less in four straight Premier League games, the latest being a 2-1 loss to West Brom at the Hawthorns, which was coincidentally AVB’s (Andre Villas Boas’) last game in charge at Chelsea too. For this game, RDM picked a weird 5-2-3 formation indicating things weren’t all right in the dressing room. Torres was dropped too.

This was the first game of he season he failed to start. Juventus ended up winning 3-0 & RDM was sacked the following day, leaving each & every Chelsea fan in shock. How could a manager who won Chelsea their first ever UCL (UEFA Champions League) be sacked? Roman Abramovich got a lot of stick from Chelsea fans after the sacking.
