Sonia Bompastor had faced criticism after Chelsea lost ground in the Women's Super League title race, but she harboured no doubts over her capabilities.
Chelsea endured a tough week as they were beaten 2-0 by Arsenal before being thumped 5-1 by WSL leader Manchester City on February 1.
That defeat left the Blues 12 points adrift of the runaway leaders, who stumbled against Arsenal on Sunday.
And Chelsea moved back within nine points of City thanks to a 2-0 victory over Tottenham, though they remain third in the table, one point behind Manchester United in second.
Bompastor faced backlash following the defeat to City, though, from her own supporters, with questions raised over her position at the club.
But she signed a new four-year deal on Friday, and Bompastor remains confident she is the right person to keep leading Chelsea.
"Even if we all know we can't control anything of that, we probably felt it was unfair to receive that amount of criticism," said Bompastor.

"I know who I am; I don't need people outside my environment to tell me who I am. I will always make sure I give my best. I know I have the competence; I know I have the knowledge, I know the women's game, and I do my best for Chelsea.
"I'm not saying I'm the best one, I'm not saying I'm arrogant, but I know who I am. I always make sure I support my players in the best way possible.
"My job is to make sure they go on the pitch with clarity on what they need to achieve. No one is going to disturb me on my confidence."
Those defeats to Arsenal and City were the first back-to-back defeats Bompastor has suffered in her managerial career.
Of managers to take permanent charge in the WSL, only Andree Jeglertz (86.7%) and Joe Montemurro (75.71%) boast a better win rate than Bompastor's 75.68% in the competition.
