Rosenior urges Chelsea to ‘keep fighting’ following Man Utd defeat
Rosenior urges Chelsea to ‘keep fighting’ following Man Utd defeat Liam Rosenior says his Chelsea side need to “keep fighting” for Champions League qualification after losing to Manchester United on Saturday night. The Red Devils scored against the run of play in the first half as Matheus Cunha grabbed the only goal of the game at Stamford Bridge. The hosts created the vast majority of the chances in the contest, but failed to find the net for the fourth Premier League match in a row.
The result leaves the Blues four points off fifth place, occupied by Liverpool who have a game in hand. Rosenior urges Chelsea to ‘keep fighting’ following Man Utd defeat “It is so difficult,” Rosenior told BBC Match of the Day after the full-time whistle. “Today they had one shot on target while we were down to 10 men.
“We had wave after wave of attack and hit the woodwork I think four times. I don’t want my team to feel things are against us. We have to keep fighting.
” The Chelsea boss was displeased with his side’s defending for Cunha’s goal. “We have to defend that moment better,” he said. “We don’t and we get punished.
At the moment any small mistake we are making and the ball ends up in the back of our net and that has to change. “It is about results and we haven’t got a result today we should have. The small things add up but we have to keep working hard.
