π£οΈ Liam Rosenior on Chelseaβs 3-2 defeat against Arsenal [H] in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg:
π€ βI was proud of the bravery of the players to try to execute certain aspects of what Iβve asked.
βIβve been in for six days and weβve had two matches [in that time]. Iβm not asking for time because I think the group is good enough to win now, but I need to put my stamp on the team as well. Otherwise, thereβs no point me being here.
βI want us to be high tempo, I want us to be front foot, I want us to control and dominate games.
βWe created chances today from transition, but we also created chances from build and possession moments today, which is really pleasing against a very good team defensively.
βIβm very encouraged by a lot of things I saw today. Iβm not happy to lose any game, but in terms of a building block for Saturday, there are a lot of things I can show the players that they can keep improving.β

π¨ Garnacho:
"Every attacker wants to score goals, but my job is to try and help the team. I tried today, and it wasnβt enough, but itβs not over yet. The game is open, thereβs just one goal difference."
"We know how hard it is to play at the Emirates, but we know the team we have, and we know what we can do. We have to go there and give everything."
Garnacho on Liam Rosenior:
"Heβs a good guy."
"Heβs changed some things, but we are still the same team and the same group. We are all together."
"We always try to win the games, and itβs frustrating when you donβt win the game. We started a little bit slowly, but in the second half we were much better. We now have to try everything in the second leg."

Chelsea are ready to make a move for a new defender in the remaining weeks of the January transfer window and give Liam Rosenior a boost to his start as the clubβs new head coach.
Chelsea had planned to try to sell at least one defender to accommodate a new face in the summer, but the club are prepared to carry an extra body for the remaining four months of the season if they can strike a deal for the right man.
Chelsea are also targeting at least one new midfielder and a versatile attacker in 2026 and are open to January opportunities in those positions. But defence is currently rated as the most likely position to be strengthened this month.

π¨ BREAKING: Buonanotte is leaving Chelsea and a CB could be signed in January.

Chelsea are ready to sign a new defender this month and give Liam Rosenior an early boost. Potential targets had been lined up for the end of the season, but Chelsea are now looking at accelerating a deal to help Rosenior cope with the clubβs busy fixture list and implement his style of play. Chelsea have been linked with Rennes centre-back JΓ©rΓ©my Jacquet and Jacobo RamΓ³n, who only joined Como from Real Madrid last summer.

The mood has been really good since Liam came in. Not everyone had been entirely happy under Maresca, but there has been a notable shift and Liamβs communication skills have been really evident. Rosenior is not expected to make any big tactical changes but instead look to make some marginal gains through subtle tweaks.

π£οΈ Liam Rosenior ahead of Brentford [H] in the Premier League:
π₯ ππ§ ππππ¦ π§ππ°π¬:
βReece [James] and Cole [Palmer], both of them are training today, so we just need to assess them after the session and make sure that they come through all of the protocols that they need to come through.
βIt would be great to have them back in the squad [for the weekend]. At the moment, it looks like they could be [involved].
βWith regards to Liam [Delap], no heβs still at home at the moment recovering. As is Jamie Gittens. Our club doctors are doing everything they can to contain what looks to be a virus, because some members of our staff have gone down with it as well.
βItβs really important to try and contain this because we have a busy period, so we will need everyone available, fit and healthy and ready to go.β

βRomeo is on the pitch, heβs not with the group yet but we can see him out on the grass doing his rehab. He is looking really good.
βI love Romeo, firstly as a lad, but also as a player and heβs someone I would love to work with for a long time, because heβs an outstanding footballer.
βThe most important thing for him now is to make sure we donβt push him too hard, so that when he does come back, heβs back for good.
βHeβs a player that I can wait to have back in the group and Iβm really looking forward to working with him when heβs back.β
π ππ§ ππ«ππ§πππ¨π«π π‘πππ ππ¨πππ‘ πππ’ππ‘ ππ§ππ«ππ°π¬:
βHeβs done a great job. Iβm not surprised because I know Keith. Heβs always been really passionate about the game. His team are performing really well. Iβm really not surprised about what heβs done so far with Brentford. Heβs at a good club and they have a clear idea about what they want to do.β

Liam Rosenior is not wearing gloves in training so the players can hear his applause when he seeβs something he likes. He is also hands on with pausing play if he seeβs something he dislikes.
Rosenior pushes players for their take before settling on a tactical plan. He asked Fofana how he would feel playing as a left centre half and going man to man on Odegaard. Heβs held conversations with others too, including Estevao, so that the Brazilian is not overly disappointed when he doesnβt start.
