John Terry is worried about Chelsea’s future following the sacking of Liam Rosenior.

The coach was dismissed by the Blues on Wednesday (22.04.26) after just 106 days in charge and the club legend can understand the frustration of the Stamford Bridge faithful.

Terry, who captained Chelsea to five Premier League title wins, said on his TikTok account: “I sit here worrying tonight about what is going to happen with our football club.

“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.

“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.

“We will not be playing in European football, I hope I am wrong.

“Really, really frustrated and worried more importantly. I feel the anger, feel the frustration of the Chelsea supporters.”

Terry also implored Chelsea’s players to “forget about all the noise” ahead of the FA Cup semi-final against Leeds on Sunday (26.04.26).

The former England international said: “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.

“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.

“We’ve seen this time and time and time again, but maybe the future isn’t as clear as we’ve always seen.”

Rosenior was appointed on a five-and-a-half-year contract in January but managed just 11 victories in 23 games across all competitions before his tenure was brought to an end.

Chelsea said in a statement: “Liam has always conducted himself with the highest integrity and professionalism following his appointment midway through the season.

“This has not been a decision the club has taken lightly, however recent results and performances have fallen below the necessary standards with still so much more to play for this season.”
