LIVERPOOL — Liam Rosenior said Chelsea must "forget the noise" as he battles to save the club's season following Saturday's 3-0 reverse against Everton — a fourth straight defeat in all competitions.

In the past 11 days the Blues have suffered a humiliating 8-2 aggregate defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and been beaten at home by Newcastle before their sorry performance against Everton.

Defeat at the Hill Dickinson Stadium has a major blow to Chelsea's chances of qualifying for next season's Champions League.

With third-placed Manchester United drawing on Friday and Liverpool losing at Brighton earlier on Saturday, the Blues had the chance to go fourth, four points behind the Red Devils, but they blew it in spectacular style.

Beto scored twice and a stunning curler from Iliman Ndiaye put the game beyond Chelsea's reach.

The club, which won the Club World Cup and the UEFA Conference League last season, remains sixth in the Premier League, a point behind Liverpool, with seven games to go.

The top-five teams in the Premier League are almost certain to play Champions League soccer next season due to the strong showing of English clubs in Europe.

Rosenior, who replaced Enzo Maresca as Chelsea boss in January, said he was still learning the ropes at Stamford Bridge.

"I'm learning about this club. It's a massive club," the former Strasbourg head coach told Sky Sports.

"There's been a lot of noise, a lot of negative noise, rightfully so, about our performances in the last week."

We've had 10 games in the league together as a group. We've got 17 points. I think we're fourth in my time.

"So we have to forget the noise. We have to keep our confidence and our composure. The international break has probably come at a good time for us to restock, re-energize ourselves and go again for a really important run-in."

Rosenior was unhappy with the way his side conceded the first two goals and said it had been a worrying pattern of late.

"Goals give you energy and at the moment we are gifting goals away," he said. "We started the game edgy and then we played our way into it.

"But it seems to be happening too often that we give cheap goals away and that gives energy to the opposition and the crowd, and their confidence goes up.

"Everton fully deserved the victory and it is something we have to change very quickly."

James Garner, who celebrated his first England call-up last week with an outstanding personal display, now has six Premier League assists this season, having managed only four in his entire career before the campaign, a form that has been rewarded with an England call-up.

"I'm so happy, I'm over the moon. It's a dream," he said. "He (England manager Thomas Tuchel) rang me and said I'll be involved; it's been a crazy week, and to top it off with a win is even better."
