Liam Rosenior (London, England; 1984) has been in charge of assuming the Chelsea bench after the abrupt departure of Maresca. The Argentine left, in part, due to the bad relationship with a property that has now put a trainer it trusts (until now he managed Strasbourg, a club in the same group) and without experience in a big team. And Rosenior has had to say here I am in the purest Mourinho style: “I’m not arrogant. I’m good at what I do.””.
These words refer to those that said the Portuguese coach when he arrived in 2004 to Stamford Bridge. “I’m sorry if I’m arrogant, but I’m a top coach,” he explained just before calling himself the famous “special one”. Rosenior wants to distance himself from accusations that he is a BlueCo puppet. “I know what they write, I’m not an alien. But you can’t be a successful coach without making your own decisions. When I arrived at Strasbourg, I was seen as a joke. He was an English nobody. But I left, leaving the team three points behind the Champions League spots. “Noise is just noise.”
A strong personality that he wanted to leave marked from the beginning. He also took the opportunity to add flowers to the quarry, but he knows that need short term results. “We cannot potentially be a world-class team. We must be a world-class team,” he warned. Chelsea is four places away from the Champions League and has gone five games in a row without winning.
Rosenior arrives having shown an immobile style of play in France. Almost always with a 3-4-2-1 that has not been seen in Chelsea for some time. A system that needs quality centre-backs and must look for them among Badiashile, Chalobah, Adarabioyo, Fofana, Hato and the very young Acheampong available. Cucurella could also come in there and use Gittens as a left-footed winger, where he shone at Dortmund. He has the defensive and offensive variant for that wing, just like with Caicedo and Reece James or Malo Gusto on the other.
The positions behind the striker will also be key. With Palmer fixed, Estevão, Neto, Buonanotte and even Enzo Fernández could appear there. It will be more difficult for Garnacho, who brings out his best virtues on the wing and who suffered in that scheme with Amorim. Andrey Santos deserves special mentionwho played at his best under Rosenior at Strasbourg.

Furthermore, he does not forget that he would like his goalkeeper to be an important part of the game by contributing with his feet. But that awaits for the future. “It is a process and it takes time,” he commented.. New times are coming at Stamford Bridge and everyone will have to adapt.
