Merson: Chelsea's Performance Against Manchester City Was 'Embarrassing'

Paul Merson has expressed his disappointment with Chelsea's recent performance, labeling their 3-0 loss to Manchester City as 'embarrassing'. Merson believes the team 'gives up' when they fall behind and criticized the decision to drop Enzo Fernandez, calling it 'illogical' and 'crazy'. With Chelsea currently sixth in the league, four points behind the top five, Merson thinks manager Liam Rosenior is under immense pressure ahead of their upcoming match against Manchester United. Merson's comments also touched on Tottenham's relegation struggles, stating that the team looks 'low on confidence' and that their upcoming match against Brighton is a 'must-win'. Additionally, Merson defended Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, saying that any talk of him being under pressure is 'laughable' given his past successes with the team.
