Outlet points towards inexperienced hierarchy as main cause of Chelsea’s issues | OneFootball

The Independent have put out an article this weekend detailing what they believe is the cause of Chelsea’s problems.

The Blues are hanging on to 6th place by a thread now after losing their last four games in the league in a row. The Champions League spaces are looking more and more impossible by the day, and the best they might now end up with is a Europa League spot, which is far from good enough.

Manager Liam Rosenior is obviously under fire because lets be honest, he is WELL out of his depth. But it is the people above him who are on the end of the blame for where Chelsea are as a club right now, and rightly so.

Inexperienced hierarchy indeed

Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali have an awkward hello.

Chris Wilson of The Independent says:

‘While Rosenior will face plenty of criticism for a string of poor performances that have yielded four losses in a row without scoring in the league for the first time since 1998, it is too easy to direct anger at a manager who is becoming a scapegoat for problems far beyond his control.

‘Rosenior remains the face of Chelsea for the media and fans, and it is unavoidable that he’ll face anger and criticism from sections of the fanbase, though in reality, few of the problems at the club are his doing, and nor can he remedy them yet.

‘The forced sale to the new BlueCo ownership promised plenty, and though headlines of excessive transfer spending were enough to quell initial fears and provide fans some excitement, that hit of dopamine has long subsided, instead leaving the reality of an inexperienced hierarchy managing an equally inexperienced squad that lacks depth in key areas.

‘While the ownership long seemed more content to tie players to long contracts to preserve and hopefully increase their value, it has left the Blues with a squad that great potential, but few reliable superstars in the starting XI as well as depth on the bench.

‘That Club World Cup win was followed by a string of questionable signings this summer, and even though the likes of Jamie Gittens clearly possess talent, there’s a feeling that Stamford Bridge is not currently a place where players can grow into that talent.’

Liam Delap has said Chelsea have the belief they can finish in the top five and win the FA Cup despite their struggles this season. I’d like some of his positivity!

And on Delap, we are already hearing the excuses about why he has not been playing well in a Chelsea shirt since arriving in the summer. We’re all tired of excuses to be honest.
