Chelsea have undergone significant managerial upheaval in recent years, with Rosenior being the latest manager sacked. The club's American owners also own Strasbourg, making the January appointment an internal transfer between affiliated clubs. This marks Chelsea's first five-game scoring drought in league matches since 1912.
Chelsea Football Club has sacked manager Liam Rosenior after less than four months in charge. The decision came on Wednesday following a run of five successive Premier League defeats, with the 3-0 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday proving to be the final straw.
The 41-year-old had been lured away from Strasbourg, the French club which is affiliated to Chelsea's American owners, in January following the departure of Enzo Maresca. However, a disastrous run of results saw Chelsea beaten seven times in their last eight games in all competitions.
The defeat to Brighton, which Rosenior himself labelled "unacceptable", marked the first time since 1912 that Chelsea have failed to score while losing five consecutive league games.
"Chelsea Football Club has today parted company with Head Coach Liam Rosenior," read a club statement. "This has not been a decision the club has taken lightly, however recent results and performances have fallen below the necessary standards with still so much more to play for this season."
