Ladies and gentleman, the brief is in…

It’s been hanging over us the last few days after Liam Rosenior picked up his fourth defeat in a row. When are the sporting directors going to let it be known that the new manager is safe regardless of the Blues Champions League qualification?

Well, it’s here.

Chelsea back Rosenior to improve with time

There were some suspicions that the Daily Telegraph’s Matt Law had been cut out of the loop at some point recently, but he’s the one with the story here. It’s a defence of Rosenior and has plenty of hope he can sort out the problems he has right now.

“Chelsea believe that Liam Rosenior is open to feedback and constructive criticism, and are confident that he can quickly learn from mistakes,” Law writes.

“Chelsea did not choose Rosenior, who signed a contract until 2032, from sister club Strasbourg as a three- or four-month appointment and were understanding of the fact that he needs time.”

This is what we’ve suspected all along. Having arrived in January, the time until the end of the season (perhaps reasonably) won’t be seen as enough to judge the manager. He will get the rest of the season, the start of next, and then (let’s face it) will probably be sacked in mid-November.

In other news…

There’s been more confirmation that Chelsea tried to sign a young defender back in the January transfer window.

Morgan Rogers is one player who won’t be joining Chelsea, given his massive transfer fee and our failure to reach the Champions League.
