It looks as if Chelsea have decided on their man to replace Enzo Maresca as the new permanent manager at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
After one game with Calum McFarlane in charge of the club, it is believed that Liam Rosenior is set to take over the reins at the club.<\/p>\n
In fact, Rosenior could be announced as the new manager on Monday after flying to London while the Blues were in action, stealing a point from Manchester City in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
Liam Rosenior set to be announced as Enzo Maresca replacement ⌛<\/p>\n
Enzo Maresca at Chelsea:<\/p>\n
91 games
\n55 wins
\n16 draws
\n20 losses<\/p>\n
Is this a step backwards, or another exciting young manager who will hit the ground running at Chelsea? <\/p>\n
Rosenior is a talented manager, and has experience working under the BlueCo model from his time with Ligue 1 side Strasbourg…<\/p>\n
Liam Rosenior warned he must deliver instant results at Chelsea<\/p>\n
Despite having that headstart, Daniel Sturridge does not believe he is coming into the job with any real advantage.<\/p>\n
In fact, he told Sky Sports that he thinks the Englishman will come under pressure if he does not deliver instant results at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cHe knows what they expect. He\u2019s worked in the confines of that group now. We hear a lot about managers or coaches. I believe they\u2019re hiring a coach in Liam Rosenior if he does get the job. He\u2019s been working with young players, young Chelsea players on loan.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a difficult job. Because there\u2019s gonna be eyes on the outside, and expectation in the fanbase is that he is going to have to come in and hit the ground running, and I think he\u2019ll be under a little bit of pressure if results don\u2019t follow because it\u2019s all happened so quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n
McFarlane sets blueprint for Rosenior to follow<\/p>\n
McFarlane is likely to now return to the Under 21s, however certainly left an impact after being drafted in to coach the side against City.<\/p>\n
Substitutions that included bringing on Andrey Santos and Liam Delap began to turn the dial in Chelsea\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n
Reece James was awarded the Player of the Match award for his performance in the heart of midfield, hinting his future should remain in that position.<\/p>\n
This will be an easier decision to make if Malo Gusto keeps providing strong performances behind him. It was the Frenchman\u2019s dangerous cross that eventually led to Chelsea\u2019s equaliser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
