Merson Slams Chelsea's 'Cringeworthy' Performance Under Pressure

Paul Merson has expressed his disappointment with Chelsea's recent performance, labeling it as 'cringeworthy' after their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City. Merson criticized the decision to drop Enzo Fernandez, stating it was a 'crazy' move that backfired. He believes Chelsea 'capitulate' when they fall behind and are now under immense pressure to secure a Champions League spot. With the team struggling, Merson thinks manager Liam Rosenior is under 'severe pressure' ahead of their upcoming game against Manchester United. He also shared his thoughts on Tottenham's relegation crisis, citing their lack of confidence and inability to grind out results. Additionally, Merson discussed Newcastle's current situation, feeling that Eddie Howe is unfairly under pressure and that the team's real concern should be the potential departure of key players like Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes.
