  "textContent": "John Terry is concerned for the future of Chelsea (Picture: TikTok)\n\nFormer Chelsea captain JohnTerry admitted he is worried about the future of the club after head coach Liam Rosenior was sacked after only 106 days.\n\nThe Blues are without a manager for the second time this season after Rosenior was given only 23 matches following his appointment in January.\n\nThe former Hull and Strasbourg boss signed a six-and-a-half-year deal in January but Chelsea have slumped since, most recently in a 3-0 defeat to Brighton, after losing five league games in a row without scoring for the first time in 114 years.\n\nCalum McFarlane will take charge until the end of the season, starting with Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final against Leeds.\n\n‘I sit here worrying tonight about what is going to happen with our football club,’ Terry said on his official TikTok account.\n\n‘Looking at us needing a manager after the weekend, I’m not sure when ownership are going to make a decision and bring a new manager in.\n\n‘Is a real top manager going to come to Chelsea Football Club at the moment in the position we are in? Can’t buy players, looking like we are going to have to sell potentially and that will be our best players, which is always tough.\n\n##  Get personalised football updates every day\n\nSign up to our daily football newsletter and choose your team to get the latest news, rumours and more about your favourite team.\n\nTo view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tvideo\n\nUp Next\n\nPrevious Page\n\nNext Page\n\n‘We will not be playing in European football, I hope I am wrong.\n\n‘Really, really frustrated and worried more importantly. I feel the anger, feel the frustration of the Chelsea supporters.\n\n‘But listen, I’ve seen 17 managers in my era come and go as Chelsea captain. What the players have to do is just get together and really focus on the weekend’s game and forget about all the noise around and everything.\n\n‘We have a massive game, it is really difficult, but also really easy to do as players to forget the noise and focus on what’s ahead of you and that is the Leeds game at the weekend.\n\n##  Remaining Chelsea fixtures\n\nChelsea vs Leeds | FA Cup | April 26\nChelsea vs Nottingham Forest | Premier League | May 4\nLiverpool vs Chelsea | Premier League | May 2\nChelsea vs Tottenham | Premier League | TBC\nSunderland vs Chelsea | Premier League | May 24\n\n‘We’ve seen this time and time and time again, but maybe the future isn’t as clear as we’ve always seen.’\n\nThe future does appear clear in one respect in as much as Terry will play no part in the club’s short or long-term managerial plans, despite cries from some fans to lean more heavily on the influence of the club’s most decorated skipper.\n\nSpeaking on talkSPORT on Wednesday, presenter Andy Jacobs revealed: ‘Every Chelsea fan would love John Terry to come in until the end of the season,’ Jacobs said.\n\n‘I’ve been told he wanted to do it, but I’ve been told they didn’t want him.\n\nLiam Rosenior was sacked by Chelsea on Wednesday (Reuters)\n\n‘And they told him in no uncertain terms that he will never, ever get the job.’\n\nIndeed, in his message to fans Terry appeared to vindicate Jacobs’ claim by insisting it had been a case of radio silence between himself and the key Chelsea decision makers.\n\n‘I’m not sure what Calum’s backroom staff is going to look like, I’ve not had a call, I’ve not had a message, I will be continuing my role in the academy,’ he said.\n\n‘I’ll be with the academy tomorrow, we’ve got a big couple of games coming up.\n\n##  Chelsea manager for the start of the 2026/27 Premier League season\n\nFilipe Luis – 13/8\nAndoni Iraola – 2/1\nCesc Fabregas – 10/3\nCalum McFarlane – 10/3\nOliver Glasner – 5/1\nXavi Hernandez – 15/2\nMarco Silva – 9/1\nFrank Lampard – 9/1\nUnai Emery – 14/1\nJulian Nagelsmann – 14/1\nFabian Hurzeler – 16/1\nXabi Alonso – 16/1\nLuis Enrique – 20/1\n\n_Odds via Betfair_\n\n‘But look we’ll all get behind Calum, he did a great job at Manchester City away recently and we’ll get right behind the boys because that’s what we do.’\n\nFormer Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was ‘shocked’ to learn of Rosenior’s sacking but believes the club’s hands were tied.\n\n‘I am shocked. I didn’t expect it to happen this soon,’ said Hasselbaink, reacting on Sky Sports News. “I know that he was under pressure because, look, Chelsea is a big club, expect to win.\n\n‘It hasn’t happened before, or it (has been a long time) that they haven’t scored in five games, so the stats are not in his favour.\n\n‘But then still, because he’s been not that long at Chelsea, I would have thought that they would give him a little bit more time.\n\n‘I am a little bit surprised, but then on the other hand I’m not because it’s football. The shirt is heavy, the supporters are used to winning a lot of trophies, used to seeing the team competing week in and week out.’\n\n‘The (Brighton) game was poor.’\n\nComment now Comments \nAdd Metro as a Preferred Source on Google\nAdd as preferred source\n",
