Chelsea interim boss insists team has not downed tools

Interim manager Calum McFarlane says Chelsea players remain motivated and committed despite a difficult season. The team aims to end its campaign strongly when it visits Liverpool on Saturday.

Chelsea suffered a 3-1 defeat to a second-string Nottingham Forest side on Monday, marking their sixth straight Premier League loss and leaving them ninth in the table. European qualification now depends on a strong finish to the season. McFarlane, who took over to steady the side after earlier managerial changes, addressed the recent setbacks ahead of the Liverpool match.
