Chelsea owner Todd Boehly was straight-faced as he was snapped arriving at the club's Cobham training ground just hours after pulling the trigger on Thomas Tuchel's reign.
The German's reign came to an end early on Wednesday morning following the Blues' abysmal 1-0 defeat to Dynamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Boehly's decision was made before Chelsea's embarrassing defeat in Croatia but it was still far from business as usual for the American, who was driven into the training ground for crunch talks with the playing staff Tuchel has left behind.
