The more time Rosenior got, the worse Chelsea became

Liam Rosenior's Chelsea tenure started with a run of 11 games in 35 days during which they had a maximum of only four days between fixtures. With time on the training pitch limited by the schedule, he made a point of not trying to change too much.

Rosenior explained his thinking after the FA Cup win over Charlton in his first game in January. "This is a team that won the Club World Cup. That was five months ago. This is a team that won the Conference League last year. They've been well coached."
