Reece James has named his favourite moment under former Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel following his sacking earlier this month.

Tuchel was relieved of his duties at the beginning of September, with Chelsea confirming: "Chelsea Football Club has today parted company with Head Coach Thomas Tuchel.

"On behalf of everyone at Chelsea FC, the Club would like to place on record its gratitude to Thomas and his staff for all their efforts during their time with the Club.

"Thomas will rightly have a place in Chelsea’s history after winning the Champions League, the Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here.

"As the new ownership group reaches 100 days since taking over the Club, and as it continues its hard work to take the club forward, the new owners believe it is the right time to make this transition.

"Chelsea’s coaching staff will take charge of the team for training and the preparation of our upcoming matches as the Club moves swiftly to appoint a new head coach. There will be no further comment until a new head coach appointment is made."

The German was quickly replaced, with former Brighton boss Graham Potter.

The 47-year-old took charge of his first game, a 1-1 draw against FC Salzburg and will be hoping to build on this as Chelsea look to turn their form around.

Speaking to Chelsea's official website on the appointment, James said: "In football, things happen very fast.

"I’ve played against Graham Potter's teams a number of times and he seems like a good guy so far.

"He’s hungry to win and I think it’s going to be an exciting future."

The defender continued to discuss his memories under Tuchel, highlighting Chelsea's 4-0 victory over Juventus last season as one of his best performances.

He concluded: "Beating Juventus 4-0 last season.

"That was just a really good all-round team performance and a good performance for myself too.

"When you’re limiting errors and having a big impact on the game, scoring, not conceding, that’s what I think makes a good performance.

"I think there are many factors that come into it and they all play a part."

James will be hoping to make many more memories under Potter as they look to recover from their poor early season form.
