Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior was furious after his team lost 3-0 to Brighton. The coach described the attitude of the players, who have lost five consecutive games in the Premier League, as “unacceptable and indefensible.”<\/p>\n
\nEvery aspect of the match was unacceptable. I am hurt and stunned…that attitude was unacceptable. Their performance tonight was indefensible.<\/p>\n
liam rosenia<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\nChelsea, who are slipping out of contention for Champions League qualification for the first time in 114 years, have lost five straight without scoring. Liam Rosenier said: “We can’t continue to defend what we’re seeing… It’s not good enough. I’m not going to lie. I’m going to tell the truth, but this was unacceptable in every sense of the word.”<\/p>\n
\nLet’s see if the players can accept the criticism. So far I’m not criticizing them. I have defended them. they deserved it. But I’ll tell you the truth<\/p>\n
liam rosenia<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n“That’s not what I want to see and I don’t want to see it again. The performance in terms of professionalism was conspicuous by its absence. Some of the things I witnessed against Brighton I don’t want to see again.”<\/p>\n
Liam Rosenier: “This performance was the worst”<\/h2>\n
Liam Rosenior warned his players: “It’s not about playing for me. It’s about playing for the club. It’s about playing for the shirt. It’s about playing to win a football match. They can talk about what they saw tonight. They can interpret it whatever they want, whether they play for me or not, that performance itself was terrible.”<\/p>\n
“We’ll see if the players can take the criticism. So far, I haven’t criticized them. I’ve defended them. They deserve it. But I’m going to tell the truth. I always come here and tell the truth. And I’m blaming myself. I’m not just blaming the players. I’m part of this process,” he said.<\/p>\n
Chelsea are seven points behind fifth-placed Liverpool in the race for Champions League qualification, with four games remaining.<\/p>\n
Alleged gaffe by Cucurella hairdresser<\/h2>\n
According to British media such as the Daily Mail and The Sun, the @Rileyeagles account, which claims to belong to Marc Cucurella’s hairdresser, revealed before the match that two players were absent from the game against Brighton. “Tonight, Palmer and Jo\u00e3o Pedro are injured. You’re the only player there,” he wrote, along with a photo of Cucurella with a haircut. A few hours later, both parties were confirmed absent and the messages were deleted. By chance, the squad for the Champions League game against PSG was also leaked, causing controversy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
