Chelsea fans may have been unpleased with Antonio Conte’s second at the club, however, many were still sad to see him go.
Conte was sacked on Thursday after dropping miserably from Premier League champions to Europa League zone.
The Blues hierarchy appeared unimpressed by the tactician’s methods even though it won them the FA Cup last term.
With the ex-Napoli boss, Maurizio Sarri’s arrival imminent, Chelsea faithful took out time to applause his potential predecessor.
Here’s what few had to say on Twitter.
Best of luck to Antonio conte. Now sarri is coming in, hope sarri will be a great replacement. Morata can also follow conte. 🛩 pic.twitter.com/1Nf5mtSxWA

I FEEL SO SAD FOR THIS GOOD MAN 😢
Antonio Conte’s departure from Chelsea is a clear reminder that football ain’t nice
Football fans should also use this as a reference point when they want to criticize a coach/player that wants to leave them – It’s Business#eng #rus #WorldCup pic.twitter.com/1tqkymFqZL

I might fuck around and do an Antonio Conte collage. Man has been immense with the fans in his 2 season sting. I wish him all the best in the future.

Leave it to Chelsea to initiate some kind of change at every waking moment. It would have been nice to have Antonio Conte around for this upcoming season.
