Chelsea co-owner Behdad Eghbali was spotted running away from angry fans following Sunday\u2019s 1-0 home defeat to Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
Chelsea news, exclusives and analysis<\/p>\n
Eghbali, in charge of the club alongside Todd Boehly, is said to have entered the players\u2019 dressing room to address the squad after another poor performance from the Blues, a result which saw them booed off the pitch by their own supporters.<\/p>\n
After the match, a clip of Eghbali went viral on social media with some Chelsea fans seen running after him and demanding answers.<\/p>\n
Eghbali was seen rushing into the back of a black car, helped by a security guard.<\/p>\n
\u2018Look at him running!\u2019 One Chelsea supporter could be heard shouting on camera before the car door slammed shut.<\/p>\n
Chelsea\u2019s fortunes have been on a downward spiral since Boehly and Eghbali took over from Roman Abramovich, with a shockingly poor 12th-placed top-flight finish last season despite the club\u2019s huge spending on players.<\/p>\n
Things have not improved this term, with the west Londoners having won just one of their opening six Premier League matches and the pressure is ramping up.<\/p>\n

Gary Neville, meanwhile, took aim at the Chelsea hierarchy following the loss to Villa at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
\u2018What are Chelsea doing?!\u2019 He said on his podcast. \u2018What is happening? I\u2019ve got great faith in Mauricio Pochettino, but he\u2019s got a huge pack of cards and he\u2019s struggling to know which hand to play.<\/p>\n
\u2018It\u2019s a mystery as to what\u2019s happening at Chelsea. Sometimes chaos just flows throughout a club. I think there will be some changes in how they go about their business. I can\u2019t see this lasting in terms of how it\u2019s being run. It\u2019s madness.\u2019<\/p>\n
