Liam Rosenior Takes Charge at Chelsea on Long-Term Deal, Debuts in FA Cup at Charlton

He says he will make the decisions at the club.

Overview

  • The 41-year-old has signed a six-and-a-half-year contract running to 2032 after moving from sister club Strasbourg under BlueCo’s multi-club model.
  • He inherits a side with one win in nine league matches and eighth place in the table, stressing hard work and what he calls the team’s “limitless” potential.
  • Rosenior has identified discipline as a priority after multiple red cards this season, having watched the midweek defeat at Fulham from the stands.
  • Addressing fan unrest, he urged supporters to judge what they see on the pitch and give his staff and players a chance.
  • His first games come quickly: the FA Cup third round at Charlton tonight, a Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Arsenal next week, and a league match versus Brentford on January 17.
