Chelsea is going through a bad season immediately after winning the FIFA Club World Cup. Chelsea has lost 3 of the last 5 matches they played. Struggling from injuries to main players, the management is struggling to keep everything smooth.

A couple of days ago, they suffered a 0-1 loss against the city. The club is struggling and management seems to have no answer to the debacle team is presenting on the field.
