Enzo Fernandez’s two game suspension from Chelsea is over now, and he will almost certainly be back in the team when we play Manchester United this weekend.

Liam Rosenior was asked in his press conference today about the Argentine’s reintegration, and whether it had caused any rifts in his squad.

“Not that I’m aware of, no,” a tense Rosenior replied, without much conviction.

“No, Enzo’s come back to the group this week. The group’s been fantastic in terms of his training, Enzo has as well, and his application to training, and our group’s application to training, so no.”

Rosenior’s words mean less than team’s response

Well no manager is going to admit that training has been sullen and awkward, or of a low standard. Rosenior always says the training has been good, and it’s been no guarantee of good results.

The proof will be on the pitch on Saturday – not only in the result, but in the attitude shown by Enzo and his teammates.

In other news…

Rosenior was quite defensive in his take on the lack of “belief” being showed by his players. It’s not entirely convincing.

The best news from the press conference was that Levi Colwill is playing minutes for the Under-21s tomorrow, meaning he’s on course to feature for the first team this season.
