Vialli recalls his shock at being sacked by Chelsea when he thought he was getting new deal
Former Chelsea player and manager Gianluca Vialli has been recalling his sacking by the Blues.
Vialli was a popular figure at Stamford Bridge but lost his job in 2000.
It came as a shock to the ex-striker, who did not suspect he was about to be removed from the position.
Speaking in his native Italy, Vialli said he felt he was in a strong position at the club and would be offered a new contract.
