Chelsea Fires Rosenior, Eyes New Coach

0:00On April 22nd, Chelsea just fired their head coach Liam Rosenier after less than four months on the job. He came over from Strasbourg on a five and a half year deal, but managed only 11 wins in 23 matches across all competitions. That three nothing lost to Brighton on Tuesday was the final straw. Their fifth straight lead defeat without scoring a goal? The worst scoreless run since 1912. The team slipped to 7th in the Premier League, now seven points behind Liverpool in the fifth and final Champions League spot. Rosenier called the performance indefensible, and fans weren't holding back with angry chance on the road. Chelsea statement praised his professionalism, but said recent results fell way below standards, especially with so much left in the season. This puts Chelsea in a tough spot with their longest Premier League losing streak since 1993, and no clean sheet in 12 straight. League games. They've only grabbed five points from their last nine league matches, worse than almost everyone else.

1:01Sources say they're eyeing Bournemouth and Doni Eriola, who's leaving its season's end. Fulham's Markle Silva, whose deal expires in July, and… X-Tortman Boss Eddenturzic. Callum McFarlane, Rosenier's assistant, steps in his interim, he already handled a draw with Manchester City and a loss to Fulham earlier this year. McFarlane's first test is Sunday at 3pm British summertime, facing leads at Wembley in the FA Cup semi-final. Chelsea's reflecting to nail down a long-term fix and push for those European spots.
