I understand their frustration,\u2019 Rosenior said.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s my job as the pinnacle coach and the manager of the football club. The buck stops with me. I actually have thick skin and I understand why the fans are frustrated. I\u2019m frustrated with the performances we\u2019re putting in.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019ve just got to maintain working hard with the staff, with the players but what I do have to do is admittedly take a look at how we go about games, the personnel of the team, who I can trust and depend on in difficult moments, because not enough players showed that today in the sport.\u2019<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"449\" src=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/SEI_294103141-8022.jpg?quality=90&#038;strip=all&#038;w=646\" class=\"article-image wp-image-28067854\" alt=\"BRIGHTON, ENGLAND - APRIL 21: Enzo Fernandez of Chelsea reacts following defeat in the Premier League match between Brighton &#038; Hove Albion and Chelsea at Amex Stadium on April 21, 2026 in Brighton, England.

I\u2019m honest with you, as honest as I can.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019m not throwing anyone under the bus. That was an unacceptable performance. And I\u2019m at the pinnacle of that.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018So for me to return out here, we\u2019re playing for Chelsea. I\u2019m managing Chelsea. The criticism and pressure comes with the football club. So if you happen to can\u2019t handle that, then you definately shouldn\u2019t be here. It\u2019s so simple as that.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018And that\u2019s something that should be addressed this week.
