Incredibly – but also quite predictably – there is speculation about the future of Liam Rosenior at Chelsea, just over two months after he was appointed.

Results have gone from good to bad, but perhaps more importantly the manner of the results and the PR missteps he keeps making are accelerating the negativity.

Sky on Rosenior’s fading job security

Sky Sports took a long look at his situation, and concluded the following about whether his job is safe:

“[Rosenior] is likely safe in his job for now, just 18 games in. He was handed a contract until 2032 and to sack him and pay off the rest of his contract would cost the club an absurd amount of money given the club are already in financial peril.

“Rosenior was handpicked by the club’s sporting directors, but so was Graham Potter. So was Enzo Maresca. It has value on the surface, but history has shown that it is not a guarantee of time.”

As ever, it will come down to Champions League qualification. And right now, that looks a long shot.

In other news…

Chelsea had some tough team decisions to make over the two legs, but Liam Rosenior without doubt bungled two of them.

Fabio Capello has pointed out that some of Rosenior’s behaviour on the touchline is not going to convince anyone he’s the man Chelsea need.
