Chelsea unveiled new boss Thomas Tuchel last week but there has been confusion in the club around his appointment and Frank Lampard’s sacking.
On Sunday the 24th of January, Chelsea fans unveiled a new banner in the Shed End that read ‘In Frank We Trust. Then. Now. Forever.
On Monday the 25th of January, Chelsea announced the sacking of Frank Lampard, much to the shock of the fans.
Ex-PSG and Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel was then announced as Chelsea boss and was in charge against Wolves with the banner in place at Stamford Bridge but now for his second game in charge the banner has been removed.
Reporters immediately noticed the banner was gone today ahead of their clash with Burnley at home.

At Stamford Bridge today and, unsurprisingly, the 'In Frank We Trust' banner is no more a week after its Shed End debut
What a difference a week makes at Chelsea #cfc #chebur

Are they right to get rid of the banner or should they have kept it up longer?
The whole thing is just very bad timing. The club must not have trusted him then, now or at all.
