‘Too many times’ – Rosenior on heavy defeat to Everton, Chelsea fans and another injury blow Liam Rosenior says he sympathises with the Chelsea fans after his side suffered another defeat at the hands of Everton. Chelsea were beaten 3-0 at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, and have now lost their last four games in all competitions . And Rosenior again highlighted a lack of concentration as an issue in the loss.
“It’s a moment of switching off (for the opening goal),” he said. “I want to protect my players always and I take responsibility for that lapse in concentration, but that’s what it is and that’s happened too many times in my time recently for me not to tell the truth as it is. ” Asked if a lack of an effort was an issue, also following Enzo Fernandez throwing doubt on his future at the club, Rosenior said: “I don’t think there’s a lack of effort, I don’t think there’s a lack of belief or determination in the team.
“I felt like Enzo kept going until the very, very last minute today. “I’m aware that when we’re on a run of defeats and performances that we’ve had, those things get levelled at you but I don’t think that’s the issue in this moment. ” Stay up to date with all the latest Chelsea news by joining our Chelsea WhatsApp channel .
Rosenior opted to bring on Alejandro Garnacho for Malo Gusto at half-time, dropping Moises Caicedo back to right-back, and defended his decision to do so despite the heavy loss. “I felt like we had so much control without the cutting edge,” he said. “We had chances and Pickford made some unbelievable saves and we were getting into the final third more and more.
