However, the momentum has faded in recent weeks. Chelsea have now gone several matches without a win across competitions. This dip in form has led to questions about the team\u2019s structure, tactical clarity, and overall direction under the new manager.<\/p>\n<p>Eghbali addressed the situation and made it clear that the ownership group remains confident in Rosenior\u2019s long-term vision.
