“He’s swallowed a psychologist’s manual” – Former Liam Rosenior team mate slams Chelsea boss

Former team mate of Liam Rosenior, Kevin Kilbane, has really gone in on the current Chelsea manager this week.

I was shocked to read the comments from Kilbane, he’s really gone in on a person that he used to play football with for Hull City not so long ago. But I’d not be as shocked as Rosenior would be to read them.

Also though, I actually think many Chelsea fans would probably agree with some of these harsh comments that perhaps also do hold some home truths.

It certainly doesn’t seem like Kilbane likes his former team mate, but he also says that he is now unrecognisable.

Liam Rosenior speaking on Sky Sports.

In quotes picked up by SPTC today, Kilbane said on Rosenior:

“I played with Liam at Hull and I got on well with Liam, he used to tell some great stories of Roy Keane when he was his manager at Ipswich.

“And you see the way he is now, to me, he’s unrecognisable to the player and the person I knew. It’s like he’s swallowed a psychologist’s manual or a sporting mentor’s memoir. To me, everything he says is waffle, drivel, nothing.

“It’s like he tries to write as many quotes down as possible and tries to get them into a pre-match talk or post-match whenever addressing the media. If I’m a player being asked to do that huddle, I wouldn’t feel comfortable if I was a Chelsea player.”

In other news…

Liam Rosenior has claimed that it wasn’t a lack of effort or tactical mistakes that were costing Chelsea – but insisted he didn’t want to blame the players in the wake of the Everton defeat on Saturday night.

But Rosenior also blamed “mistakes” for the goals Chelsea were conceding – but we’re going to need a bit more than that I’m afraid.
