Chelsea sack Liam Rosenior

Rosenior's tenure ended after a three-nil loss to Brighton marked the team's worst goalscoring drought since 1912.

The dismissal represents the seventh managerial change under the ownership of BlueCo in just over four years.

Pundits including Gary Neville have criticized the club's hierarchy, accusing the owners of a lack of strategic direction and 'stitching up' the former manager.

Chelsea is now reportedly considering several high-profile candidates, including Andoni Iraola and Diego Simeone, to lead a long-term rebuild of the struggling squad.
