Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino called on the owners to "support the plan" after defeat at home to Aston Villa.
Malo Gusto saw red for Chelsea before Ollie Watkins grabbed a winner for Villa.
Pochettino was asked about the owners and replied: "Of course they are disappointed but at the same time they need to support the plan."
Gusto will now be suspended, as will Nicolas Jackson after collecting a fifth yellow card.
Pochettino also said: "We were talking, we need to grow up like a team. Nico is young and is feeling the Premier League. Football is about winning but players when they are young need to learn. That is why we feel disappointed. We have too many situations like this.
"Work, trust in them, confidence. We have the squad we have, we need try to build the confidence and give them all of the support they need because they need to perform on the pitch. The performance is good, not excellent but we are missing goals.
"I start tomorrow again to prepare the game for Wednesday and hope we can score Wednesday."
