A football pundit has made some Liam Rosenior related demands to the under pressure Chelsea ownership group.
Chelsea fans have an organised protest for the Brentford game at the weekend and as well as that, they have been chanting against the owners and in particular, co-owner Behdad Eghbali in their last two games. It’s not a good feel out there right now amongst the Chelsea fan base for many reasons, and this has caused some pressure to be upped on the ownership groups.

Liam Rosenior is now in the door of course, but he has a big job ahead of him.
Pundit Micah Richards believes Rosenior could be good at Chelsea, but he does have a huge worry and has demanded the club owners make themselves clear.

Richards said on The Rest Is Football: “The only worry is what Chelsea want from him and if they’re happy just being top four and challenging for the Europa League, Champions League or whatever, maybe winning the Europa League if they don’t get into the Champions League.
“I just want to know what the bigger plan is for Chelsea. If their plan is to get top four and challenge for a trophy, I think he’ll do really well.”
Richards added: “They’re not better than Manchester City, they’re not better than Liverpool and they’re not better than Arsenal.
“Aston Villa are creeping up there as well so a realistic target is to challenge for top four.
“I hope he does really well and I think he will, as long as it’s a realistic plan.”
