Despite spending more than £600 million on players over the past two transfer windows, Chelsea have endured an utter shambles of a season with yet another abject performance in Tuesday's 3-1 defeat at Arsenal leaving them 12th in the Premier League.
The Blues have now lost all six of their games under caretaker manager Frank Lampard, whose own managerial losing streak stands at 10 games if the final four results of his dire stint at Everton earlier this season are also taken into account.
What's more, a 12th-place finish would represent the club's worst final placing in the Premier League since they washed up in 14th back in 1993-94.
