Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen has described the end of Jose Mourinho's Chelsea tenure as "terrible news".
The board at Stamford Bridge decided to wield the axe this afternoon following a run of form that had seen the defending Premier League champions lose nine of their opening 16 games.
However, Chelsea fan Pietersen has taken to Twitter to vent his disappointment.
Terrible news to wake up to here in Aus! You gave us more pleasure than most, Josè! Thank you, Thank you! #CFC pic.twitter.com/XEfNCDe8KN

During his two spells in charge of Chelsea, Mourinho won eight trophies - a haul that included three Premier League titles.
