'I hated every minute of it!' - Chelsea showed 'no purpose' in Tuchel's first game, says Cascarino

Chelsea showed "no purpose" in Thomas Tuchel's first game in charge, says Tony Cascarino, who says he "hated every minute it".

Tuchel was drafted in to replace Frank Lampard in the Stamford Bridge dugout at the start of the week, with a club legend having been axed for overseeing a poor run of results between December and early January.

The Blues turned to a man who led Paris Saint-Germain to their first-ever Champions League final last season in the hope he could instantly turn the team's fortunes around, but his reign in west London got off to a dull start on Wednesday night.
