Chelsea announced the sacking of Rosenior on Wednesday evening, less than four months after signing a six and a half year deal at Stamford Bridge.

Tuesday’s 3-0 defeat to Brighton was the final straw, which represented the Blues fifth consecutive defeat in the league without scoring.

Fabrizio Romano speaks on Liam Rosenior sacking

Chelsea now sit eighth in the league, and are in serious danger of playing no European football next season, which would be nothing short of a disaster.

The appointment of Rosenior is yet another failure for the club’s sporting hierarchy, who are coming under increased pressure, with supporters wondering why they are still in their roles.

Despite a good start, the wheels came of quickly for Rosenior, with his position becoming untenable, and Chelsea never really recovered from the 5-2 defeat against PSG in Paris.

It’s clear the players lost belief in him that night, and Romano has provided an update on one of the key reasons for his sacking.

“The connection was complicated, and that was a crucial factor because when Chelsea saw some of the players were unhappy with Liam Rosenior, that was a crucial point to sack him,” he told his YouTube channel.
