According to Daily Mail, Chelsea manager Antonio Conte's position is under fresh scrutiny following Sunday's toothless showing against West Ham.
Despite the fact Chelsea can still win the FA Cup there is growing concern at Stamford Bridge that their season will capitulate.
Conte was expected to go at the end of the season, however, the decision for him to leave could yet accelerate.
Chelsea's recent form has been poor, with last weekend's 3-1 home defeat by Tottenham Hotspur leaving them adrift of their north London rivals in the race for the top four.
That margin now stands at 10 points after Chelsea dropped points in the wake of Spurs winning 2-1 at Stoke City on Saturday.
With just six matches to play, it looks increasingly likely the Blues will be playing Europa League football next season.
They can still win the FA Cup, and face Southampton in the semi-final at Wembley on April 22, but that will come as small consolation.
They were also outclassed by Barcelona in the last-16 of the Champions League last month, losing the second leg in the Nou Camp 3-0.
On Sunday, they led West Ham courtesy of a goal from Cesar Azpilicueta 10 minutes before half-time. But they had to settle for a point after Javier Hernandez levelled.

It is his fault. He caused all these problems for Chelsea. A team that does not have a regular striker. One of the best strikers in EPL last season was in Chelsea but Antonio Conte with his ego and stupidity drove him away. He is now regretting. Antonio Conte ought to have been sacked after the first match of the season when Chelsea lost to Burnley. No pity for Antonio Conte, no pity for Chelsea Board. I still believe all the players that played last season for Chelsea and are still there are good. 95% of last summer recruits are not good. You cannot eat your cake and have it. I do hope next season will be better.
Conte should be allowed to stay. The board has the bulk of the fault. Every day is not Christmas. That's football for you.

conte must stay at Chelsea its not his problem that now we can be loosing games its the board which has a problem. Loot at the players they bolt last summer the likes of Rose, Danny, Morata, Bakayoko, n more are all flops n yet they expect a coach to win UEFA, EPL, FA . No coach on earth can manage.

It’s unbelievable how many good players in Chelsea team what changed i can’t understand it has to be the coach he same players from last season are not performing they look like they never played together it showed last against spurs. I am a United fan sure we have our problems too but it’s strange what has happened to Chelsea.

it's obvious.. I really love conte and the only way I would love him to stay is for the board to leave the transfers for him. conte wants. what he gets 1. belloti. Morata 2. Vidal. Bakayoko 3. koulibaly. Rudiger 4. sanchez. Barkley 5. naingollan. Drinkwater 6. Alex sandro. Alonso 7. chamberlain. zappacosta Am not saying they are bad but there ain't Chelsea type of players
Thus very true the board is not okay, they must surrender the powers

Chelsea has no one to blame but themselves, after a lackluster display against some weak opposition and weak effort against the stronger teams

Very disappointed this is the kind of season CHELSEA is having missing opportunities to kill the game. Chelsea should have scored at least three goals before half time

Conte is a very good and nice coach, I don't see why the club is putting him in pressure that's not right... There's no way a coach would be able to work his team when the club. is simply giving him sleepless night, sometimes you have to be patient in order to get good results that's the only way. Conte is a good coach despite their performance this season any club would love to have him he's such a hard working fella.. the management should give him sometime till the end of the season and if the results are improving he can stay...

It's so sad seeing a team that won last year perform the way they have been. When you see them, you can see a lack of desire, ambition, willingness, motivation. It seems all is lost, it does not really bother them as to where they finish. ✌️
