Chelsea have no plans to sack Liam Rosenior despite a string of poor results, talkSPORT reports.
The 41-year-old, who joined Stamford Bridge from sister club Strasbourg in January, continues to have the full support of the BlueCo hierarchy.
Despite growing dissatisfaction among the fan base, club leaders are reportedly committed to giving Rosenior at least one full season in charge before conducting a formal performance review.
Chelsea’s poor performance continues under manager Liam Rosenior
The ‘manager’s backlash’ that welcomed Rosenior’s arrival has completely disappeared, replaced by an alarming slump in form.
Chelsea are currently on a four-game losing streak in all competitions, including being eliminated from the Champions League with a crushing 8-2 aggregate defeat to PSG.
The domestic situation is equally concerning. Recent Premier League defeats to Newcastle United and a 3-0 loss to Everton have seen the Blues drop to sixth in the table.
Perhaps most worrying for supporters is the lack of an attacking threat. Chelsea failed to score in three consecutive games for the first time since 2023.
Is Rosenior the right man for the Chelsea job?
The debate over Rosenior’s suitability is heating up. He was hailed as a tactical visionary during his spells at Hull City and Strasbourg, but his move to Chelsea proved quite difficult.
Critics have questioned his touchline methods, particularly his habit of handing players detailed tactical notes during matches and pre-match huddles.
Worryingly, Chelsea’s players are fed up and reportedly have started talks about leaving Stamford Bridge, according to reports.
However, the Chelsea board appears to be playing the long game.
Rosenior, who signed a contract through 2032, was brought in to lead the multi-year project.
According to reports, the club will not review his position until the summer of 2027, even if they fail to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
Unless the team collapses in the final weeks of this season, the bosses believe Rosenior deserves a full pre-season and shaping the team’s image through the summer transfer window.
