Rosenior Takes Responsibility for Chelsea's League Cup Stumble | Sports-Games
Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior takes responsibility for goalkeeper Robert Sanchez's mistakes during a 3-2 League Cup loss. Rosenior, who recently took over the club, emphasizes accountability and aims to improve Sanchez's performance. Chelsea, currently eighth in the Premier League, will face Brentford next.
In the wake of Chelsea's 3-2 defeat in the League Cup semi-final first leg at Stamford Bridge, manager Liam Rosenior has assumed responsibility for the costly errors of goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. The match saw Sanchez struggle, allowing an early goal from Ben White and another from Viktor Gyokeres in the second half.
Rosenior, who stepped into his managerial role on January 6 following Enzo Maresca's dismissal, acknowledged the challenge he posed to Sanchez. "I'm asking Rob to do things he hasn't done before," Rosenior stated post-match, highlighting his accountability. "That's on me," he emphasized.
Stressing his commitment to improvement, Rosenior remarked on the limited time he has had with Sanchez, noting that this was their first game together. Despite the setback, Chelsea, currently eighth in the Premier League standings, will look to bounce back when they meet Brentford on Saturday.
