Rosenior on Pedro's fitness, Brighton and how Blues 'have to win'
Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has been speaking to the media before Tuesday's Premier League game against Brighton at the Amex Stadium (20:00 BST). Here are the key lines from his news conference: Rosenior confirmed Estevao Willian will definitely miss the game with a hamstring problem picked up in Saturday's defeat by Manchester United , while a "late call" will be made on Joao Pedro's inclusion after missing that game but Enzo Fernandez is "absolutely fine". He is optimistic Levi Colwill can feature before the end of the season as he continues to recover from his ACL injury: "Very hopefully, yes, to see him before the end of the season.
We want him to be involved in the next game with the under-21s on Saturday. " Rosenior was asked about Wesley Fofana's frustrated reaction to being substituted against the Red Devils: "Wes is very emotional in a good way. I love him as a guy.
He wears his heart on his sleeve. He's disappointed. He could've shown his emotion in a better way.
The optics on that is not the reality. Wes apologised. " On the Blues' poor form and how it has affected their Champions League qualification chances: "We've made it very difficult for ourselves.
What we can't do is give up, we have to keep fighting. As a coach, you have to work to the data and the process. In this moment, we need to win.
