Things will get worse at Chelsea before they get better as players are 'playing with anxiety', believes former Blues star Glenn Hoddle.
Frank Lampard oversaw a fifth straight defeat since returning as interim boss, with Brentford running out 2-0 winners at Stamford Bridge.
Fans were furious beforehand at the team selection - which had Conor Gallagher up front - and Chelsea were as blunt as they appeared.
For Hoddle, no clear focal point is killing them, and his BT Sport colleague Owen Hargreaves fears there is no light at the end of this season's tunnel.
