Since replacing Enzo Maresca who was sacked on New Year’s Day 2025, Liam Rosenior has made an immediate impact at Chelsea. As of February 14, 2025, Rosenior has overseen 11 matches, recording:
- 8 wins
- 2 losses
- 1 draw
Softfootball gathered, the only two defeats came against Arsenal in the Carabao Cup semi-final, a narrow 3–2 loss in the first leg and a 1–0 defeat in the second leg. Outside of those matches, Chelsea have looked far more structured and confident under his leadership.
The sole draw came against Leeds United in a frustrating 2–2 encounter as Chelsea had taken a 2–0 lead but conceded after Moisés Caicedo gave away a penalty, while a late defensive lapse allowed Leeds to equalise.
Chelsea’s First 11 Matches Under Rosenior:
- ✅ Win vs Hull City
- 🤝 Draw vs Leeds United
- ✅ Win vs Wolverhampton Wanderers
- ❌ Loss vs Arsenal
- ✅ Win vs West Ham United
- ✅ Win vs Napoli
- ✅ Win vs Crystal Palace
- ✅ Win vs Pafos FC
- ✅ Win vs Brentford
- ❌ Loss vs Arsenal
- ✅ Win vs Charlton Athletic
Eight wins in eleven matches represent a strong return, especially considering the managerial change mid-season. Beyond the results, the team appears more balanced tactically. The midfield structure has improved, pressing looks coordinated, and the defensive shape has stabilised compared to earlier in the campaign.
While it is still early days, Rosenior’s record so far suggests Chelsea may have found renewed direction at a crucial stage of the season.
