The Digest:

Chelsea sacked manager Liam Rosenior after just 107 days following a catastrophic run that included seven losses in his last eight matches. The Blues lost five consecutive league games without scoring for the first time since 1912, conceded 11 goals from corners (seven under Rosenior), and suffered a humiliating 8-2 aggregate Champions League defeat to PSG. Chelsea slid from fourth to seventh in the Premier League table, taking only four points from a possible 24.

Key Points:
  • Chelsea failed to score in five straight league matches for the first time since 1912.
  • The club kept no clean sheet in 12 Premier League games under Rosenior.
  • PSG avenged their Club World Cup loss with an 8-2 aggregate thrashing.
  • Chelsea suffered three straight home league defeats for the first time since 1993.
  • Rosenior won six of his first seven matches before the dramatic collapse.
Rosenior's brief tenure will be remembered for historic negative records and a team collapse.
