“Tactically, this guy has got it” – Pundit insists Liam Rosenior is “cooking up a storm” at Chelsea | OneFootball

Pundit Micah Richards has fully back Liam Rosenior and thinks that tactically, he’s got it and also, he is cooking up a storm.

Many Chelsea fans will probably disagree with this right now based on many of the comments and reactions I’ve seen this week after Chelsea’s 5-2 defeat to PSG on Wednesday night.

However, Rosenior’s start as Chelsea boss hasn’t been the worst really, despite this result and some other dodgy results and performances. I don’t actually think he’s done that badly yet. The PSG game was terrible, and that was on Rosenior. But overall, he’s been OK.

But even after saying that, I would not be going as far as saying what Richards is saying about Rosenior either, he’s not there yet, far from it.

Most people took a negative view of what unfolded over in Paris, but Micah Richards actually thinks Chelsea were tactically brilliant (The Rest Is Football).

“Guys, honestly, I think, guys, honestly, I think Rosenior, I think he’s cooking. I think he’s cooking up a storm. I’m telling you now. Honestly, tactically, this guy has got it. I’ve seen everything I need to see.

“The way they build up, Mistakes again, but Sanchez, he probably should have played the other night. Jorgensen comes in, but the way they want to build, once they, if, whatever happening in the goalkeeper situation, if they get an unbelievable number one who’s good on the ball, who knows what he wants to do, I’m telling you, Chelsea, the way they played through PSG and the way they could open up teams, want to play through the middle, then they get it wide and then they’ve got runners from the midfield.

“Enzo, fantastic, Neto was brilliant, João Pedro’s playing some of the best football of his life. Cole Palmer’s now getting involved like the old Cole Palmer we need to see.”

In other news this week…

Goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen has been slammed for some of his actions post game at PSG earlier this week. After what was a nightmare performance from the Blues stopper, he then tried to ignore Chelsea fans and walk off down the tunnel.

Reece James has tried to claim the PSG tie isn’t over yet – but we’re all being realistic about that now. Of course, factually it is not over, but realistically, it is all but over. Chelsea need to score three goals next week without conceding, to even take it to extra time.
