Chelsea make decision on Liam Rosenior’s future after Manchester City defeat Chelsea suffered a big blow to their Champions League qualification hopes as they lost 3-0 to Manchester City on Sunday . Nico O’Reilly broke the deadlock early in the second-half before Marc Guehi quickly added another with a low finish. Moises Caicedo cheaply surrendered possession to Jeremy Doku, who scored City’s third to wrap up an excellent victory at Stamford Bridge.

Pressure is mounting on manager Liam Rosenior, as his team have lost five of their last six games across all competitions. But despite the poor run of results, the club’s hierarchy are not considering sacking their head coach. Chelsea continue to support Rosenior as they acknowledge he arrived in January and had no pre-season, per Fabrizio Romano .

The reputed journalist said: “Chelsea continue to support Liam Rosenior. This is the message from the club after today’s match. ” “They don’t forget that he came in January and there was no pre-season.

It will be important to see how Chelsea finish the rest of the season. But for now, the message is: ‘we want to trust this coach’. ” Sunday’s home loss to Man City leaves Chelsea four points adrift of the final Champions League spot .
