Chelsea have sacked head coach Liam Rosenior after just three-and-a-half months in charge.
Rosenior was appointed on a five-and-a-half-year contract in January after Enzo Maresca's abrupt departure from Stamford Bridge.
After a promising start under the former Hull City and Strasbourg boss, when the Blues won six out of his first seven matches, their form has collapsed.
Chelsea have lost six of their past seven matches, with the only break in that slump a 7-0 FA Cup win over League One Port Vale.
Tuesday's 3-0 defeat at Brighton was Rosenior's fifth consecutive league defeat and Rosenior lambasted his players in the aftermath. With the club seven points shy of the Champions League places after playing 34 games – one more than fifth-placed Liverpool – and an FA Cup semifinal against Leeds on the horizon, Chelsea's hierarchy have decided to act.
Calum McFarlane, who led the team for two games after Maresca's exit, will take interim charge until the end of the season.
Chelsea sacked Liam Rosenior due to a significant decline in team performance, losing six of their last seven matches.
Calum McFarlane has been appointed as interim head coach until the end of the season following Rosenior's dismissal, as Chelsea seeks to stabilize the team's performance.
Under Liam Rosenior, Chelsea had a promising start, winning six out of his first seven matches, but their form deteriorated sharply thereafter.
