For much of the match, supporters directed their frustration towards the hierarchy, while also chanting for former owner Roman Abramovich.<\/p>\n
Such song have been a recurring feature of Chelsea’s away support over the past 18 months and are increasingly being heard at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
However, this was the first occasion on which Rosenior himself became the target of supporter anger, amid a growing sense that a sixth managerial change under the Clearlake Capital and Todd Boehly ownership group may be approaching.<\/p>\n
Chelsea’s stance has been that they will back Rosenior into next season with the intention to reserve judgement until the end of the next campaign.<\/p>\n
The hierarchy increasingly accept they have made multiple managerial mistakes and are searching for stability.<\/p>\n
In a rare interview earlier this month, influential co-owner Eghbali said: “I think we’re behind Liam. Of course, it’s a results business, but we think he can be successful long term.”<\/p>\n
However, two further defeats have worsened the situation and the fans have since turned, making it a more difficult decision to keep Rosenior than make a change.<\/p>\n
Asked about supporters turning on him, Rosenior said: “I understand the supporters’ frustration. It’s my job as head coach and manager – the buck stops with me. I have thick skin and I understand why the fans feel that way.<\/p>\n
“I’m frustrated with the performances we’re producing and I have to keep working hard with the staff and the players. But I also need to take a hard look at how we approach games, the personnel we select and who I can trust in difficult moments, because not enough players showed that today.”<\/p>\n
Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton told Sky Sports: “It’s a team that look like they’ve never played together before. What’s worse than that is it’s been a really gutless display.<\/p>\n
“The issue Liam Rosenior will have is people will look at this performance and say he has lost the dressing room but Chelsea players need to take a hard look at themselves. <\/p>\n
“Chelsea have been pathetic and they are going backwards. You wonder what next for Chelsea and Rosenior.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
