Nizaar Kinsella’s piece for the BBC about Liam Rosenior has some interesting thoughts on whether the manager is under pressure just a couple of months after coming into the job.

“There is no suggestion inside Chelsea that Rosenior, who succeeded Enzo Maresca in January when he joined from partner club Strasbourg, is in danger of losing his job, either now or at the end of the season,” Kinsella writes in a line that will frustrate some fans who have already given up on their coach.

“There is an understanding that he took over mid‑season from Maresca, who walked away following a falling-out with the hierarchy, when the club had hoped the Italian would remain until at least the summer.”

Rosenior still takes transfer meetings with sporting directors

Kinsella’s best evidence that Rosenior’s job is safe is that he’s been “heavily involved in regular transfer planning meetings.”

We’re not sure how much stock we’d put in that. They’re hardly going to just stop meeting with him once he’s under pressure. Presumably they’ll continue to include him in planning meetings until the moment he actually gets fired.

Regardless of these excuses Rosenior is struggling right now, and one line he’s had about training time is backfiring on him right now.

The podcast also covered Wesley Fofana, with Simon Johnson saying he doesn’t look like he has a future at Chelsea at the moment.
