Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic has warned his team-mates they bear the responsibility for results.
The Serbian full-back is one of a few players, along with John Terry and John Obi Mikel, who were at the club during Gus Hiddink's previous period in charge, when he led them to an FA Cup win in 2009.
"He was the one who gave me a proper chance in this club," Ivanovic told Chelsea's website. "I know how good his work was the first time he was here and I am grateful to him for that moment, but it was a long time ago.
"Now is a new challenge, a completely different situation. I think his first aim is to stabilise us, so we can play like we did against Sunderland."
"All of us have a responsibility for what has happened and all of us are responsible for where we are in this moment," Ivanovic added.
"The manager is not on the pitch, it is the players, so we lose the games and the thing we can change in the future is ourselves.
"We have to be honest with each other and honest with ourselves, then win a couple of games in a row and stick with that for a long time to get back to winning regularly, because it is important for the club."
