Cole Palmer:

"It's good [that we've shown we can turn games around]. It's just probably better if we don't keep going behind in the first place! But to know that we can do it is good. Obviously the table is tight, so we need as many points as we can get."

Cole Palmer on Liam Rosenior:

"I feel like he's got really good man-to-man management. He makes time for everyone and it's a genuine connection. He wants to see how you are, he cares for you and wants you to do well. So he's a really good coach and manager..."

Cole Palmer on Joao Pedro:

"Me and him link up well, and he's been scoring a lot of goals lately, so long may it continue..."

 🗣️ Liam Rosenior on Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to @Newcastle_United [H] in the Premier League:

😤 “In the first 15-to-20 minutes, I think anyone watching the game would say which way the game was headed. We had control, we had domination, we created chances and moments. But then the goal gave Newcastle the energy they needed to see out the game in the way they wanted to play.

“For me, it’s two aspects. One, we lacked a little bit of mental freshness in the final third; a combination, the right decision or that bit of quality in the right moment. And the second thing we need to make sure is that if we’re not going to score, then the other team doesn’t score.

“The disappointing thing today, for me, is we haven’t kept a clean sheet when Newcastle, if they’re being honest, didn’t really create much. We gift them the goal and that’s something I really, really need to solve for us to improve in the future.”

😶‍🌫️ 𝐎𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐡, 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐝, 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐬𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐱𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐡, 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲:

“Today is a blow but there are going to be plenty of twists and turns. I showed the players the league table up until today, in terms of my time working with this group, we’re third in the league. It feels like sometimes it’s not that, but that’s the case.
“We’re not out of it. The last league game we played, we won 4-1 at Aston Villa. Today was a really difficult day, a frustrating day, because we didn’t get the result we wanted. But I still think there is a consistency in our performances.”
