Chelsea’s owners have reportedly called an emergency meeting to discuss Liam Rosenior’s position as manager following a fifth straight Premier League defeat. It’s 114 years since Chelsea last lost five league matches in a row, with suggestions that Rosenior’s position might be under scrutiny starting to grow.
The latest in the growing list of defeats came away to Brighton, where the Blues were put to the sword and shipped three goals without return. It came after losses to both Manchester clubs, Everton, and Newcastle, with Chelsea now looking as if they could miss out on European football altogether.
It’s reported by talkSPORT that the ongoing slump has forced Chelsea’s board into holding an emergency meeting, despite having originally planned to review his position at the end of next season. The bigwigs are said to be discussing a plan of action, and could sanction an exit earlier than initially expected.
