Liam Rosenior had a watching brief in the stands at Craven Cottage as Chelsea lost to Fulham in a west London derby in the Premier League. Rosenior, a former Fulham player, was officially confirmed as the new Blues head coach on Tuesday after leaving BlueCo sister club Strasbourg to succeed Enzo Maresca, but isn’t taking the reins at Cobham until Thursday as he prepares for the FA Cup clash with Charlton.
Instead it was a second and final game at the helm for interim boss Calum McFarlane, who guided Chelsea to an unlikely draw at Manchester City on Sunday thanks to a late equaliser from Enzo Fernandez. McFarlane had a number of players back and made six changes to the team that battled for a point at the Etihad Stadium, but Marc Cucurella’s first-half red card proved costly as Chelsea’s lack of discipline showed once again.
Harry Wilson - on whom Cucurella committed the foul that led to his dismissal - had a goal ruled out for Fulham before Raul Jimenez broke the deadlock after the break, with Liam Delap equalising with his first league goal for Chelsea before the in-form Wilson struck a late winner to continue his remarkable run.
