Scolari: Chelsea sacking almost turned me off football

Luiz Felipe Scolari admits his sacking by Chelsea left him wondering about a future in football.

Scolari, currently manager at Palmeiras after taking the post last year, says the Chelsea fall-out left him needing a break from the game.

"My exit from Chelsea was sad because the Premier League is a wonderful competition and a sensational venue to work," he said.

"I was very depressed after my exit and for two months I didn't want to even talk about football."
