At the time, Liam Rosenior said: “I am extremely humbled and honoured to be appointed Head Coach of Chelsea Football Club. This is a club with a unique spirit and a proud history of winning trophies.
“My job is to protect that identity and create a team that reflects these values in every game we play as we continue winning trophies. To be entrusted with this role means the world to me and I want to thank all involved for the opportunity and faith in undertaking this job. I will give everything to bring the success this club deserves.
“I believe deeply in teamwork, unity, togetherness and working for one another, and those values will be at the heart of everything we do. They will be the foundation of our success.
“I am excited to work with this extremely talented group of players and staff, to build strong connections on and off the pitch, and to create an environment where everyone feels united and driven by the same goal.

Is Brighton Vs Chelsea on TV?
The Brighton VS Chelsea match will be televised live on Sky Sports.
When it comes to injuries, Joao Pedro faces a late fitness test but has trained ahead of the Brighton match. It is unlikely that Estevao will play after he was substituted in the 15th minute in the match against Man United after tweaking his hamstring.
Liam Rosenior said: “He was crying at half time; it was really devastating for him.”'It looks like it's his hamstring and that has happened in a moment when he's running through on their goal for a one-v-one chance – he pulls his hamstring in that moment. I hope Este comes back sooner rather than later.”

Liam Rosenior also commented about Enzo Fernandez and said: “I just saw him in the dressing room – I think it was his calf.
“I’m hoping it's cramp; he’s getting work on it right now because we want him, obviously, fit for Tuesday [against Brighton and Hove Albion].
“He ran himself into the ground for the club tonight and I expect nothing different from a man of his stature and quality.”
