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.
