Liam Rosenior has confirmed he’s going to “use the squad” ahead of Chelsea’s FA Cup tie with Wrexham on Saturday.
The Blues travel to north Wales looking to book their place in the quarter finals as they continue their quest for a first piece of domestic silverware since 2018.
It’s the third time in as many rounds that Chelsea will have been away at Championship opposition, and this will probably be their toughest test yet.
Having played Aston Villa on Wednesday night, and with a huge game against PSG in the Champions League next week, Rosenior is set to make changes.
In fact, speaking ahead of the game Rosenior has confirmed his intentions, and stated he’s going to use the squad.
“I’m going to use the squad,” he told his pre-match press conference.
“I haven’t had the same starting XI in any game I’ve played.
“My idea and the club’s idea is to build a squad to win trophies. You need to rotate.”
Rosenior has confirmed Jamie Gittens and Estevao are still absent, whilst he faces a big decision in goal having dropped Robert Sanchez against Aston Villa.
The Blues aren’t going to win the league, and certainly aren’t amongst the favourites for the Champions League despite advancing to the last 16.
Having been knocked out of the Carabao Cup at the semi final stage by Arsenal, the FA Cup represents Chelsea’s best chance of silverware this season.
