Liam Rosenior is set to complete the process of becoming Chelsea's new head coach after flying into London for talks with Blues officials. The 41-year-old, who currently manages Strasbourg in France, has been identified as the top contender to replace outgoing boss Enzo Maresca.
Rosenior's appointment comes at a time when Chelsea are struggling to find consistency in the Premier League, currently sitting fifth but out of title contention after a dismal December under Maresca. Despite this, Rosenior is confident that his team has "talent and character to be successful."
Chelsea caretaker manager Calum McFarlane has expressed optimism about Rosenior's potential, stating that he is likely to take over as boss by Monday at the latest. However, with talks at an advanced stage, it remains to be seen how quickly Rosenior will be formalized into the role.
Rosenior took charge of Strasbourg just a few days ago, leading his team to a 1-1 draw against Nice in their last match before flying to London. He is expected to face several challenges as he prepares to take on Chelsea, including navigating the complex dynamics between the club's American ownership and its sister club, Strasbourg.
Chelsea's recent performances have been impressive, with a hard-fought 1-1 draw at Manchester City providing a glimmer of hope for the title-chasing team. Despite this, Rosenior knows that he has his work cut out to transform the side and get them back on track.
With a grueling schedule ahead, including a trip to Fulham and an FA Cup third-round tie against Charlton, Rosenior will have to demonstrate his tactical acumen and leadership qualities if Chelsea are to make a serious push for silverware.

the team has been doing pretty bad lately and its good that they changed it up. but with liam rosenior coming in, im hoping he can bring some magic back to the pitch 
. his experience with strasbourg is a big plus too, so fingers crossed he can bring those skills to chelsea 
. cant wait for him to take over and start making changes! the fa cup tie against charlton looks super intense tho 
. wish them all the best!
i hope liam rosenior brings some fresh ideas and helps them turn their season around but man navigating complex dynamics between owners and sister clubs sounds like trying to manage a crazy cafeteria schedule 
. First, they're making some big change at Chelsea and then BAM! They go and get some young blood like Rosenior, who's still getting his feet wet with Strasbourg. It's like they're trying to create a power vacuum or something. And what's up with the timing? This guy just flies in for talks and suddenly he's the top contender? It smells like there's an agenda at play here 
. I mean, have you seen Rosenior's managerial record so far? Not exactly impressive. Is Chelsea trying to distract us from something else while they figure out what's really going on behind the scenes? 
! He's gotta bring some magic back to Stamford Bridge ASAP 
️! I mean, 41 is old for a manager, but Rosenior's got experience and he's already showed signs of life with his draw against Nice 
. The real question is how's gonna play out with the American ownership and Strasbourg? There are rumors they want him to do the Chelsea thing in France too 
! One thing's for sure though - Rosenior's gotta bring some consistency to the team if he wants to turn things around 
! Can't wait to see how this all plays out

5th place in the league is still decent but gotta do better, don't know how hard it'll be to go from france to london lol but good luck calum 
They really need someone to sort out their consistency issues, and I think he's got what it takes. His experience managing Strasbourg in France is impressive, and I love that he's talking about his team having "talent and character to be successful". It's a big change for the club, but I'm confident they can get back on track with Rosenior at the helm. 
. And let's be real, navigating all those complex dynamics between the club and its sister team is gonna be a challenge for anyone. I'm curious to see how Rosenior approaches it, but at the same time, I don't wanna get my hopes up too high just yet 
.
. Rosenior's chances of becoming Chelsea's new head coach seem pretty promising, but I'm not sure if he'll be able to turn the team around... did you watch that game between Manchester City and Chelsea?
. And let's be real, he needs to whip this team into shape ASAP, they're sitting in 5th but still so far off title contention 
. Strasbourg's been doing well for him though, and if he can bring that same magic to Stamford Bridge, watch out Premier League! 
. Rosenior's got the credentials and the passion to take Chelsea to new heights 
. It's time to give this guy a chance 
!
! I mean, Liam Rosenior's got some big shoes to fill coming into Chelsea, but he seems like the real deal 
. It'll be interesting to see how he navigates that complex dynamic between American ownership and their sister club 
i mean rosenior has done well with strasbourg but can he really take on this big club? they need someone who can bring stability and a clear vision, not just a new face. and what about mcfarlane, why cant he be the one to lead them out of this mess? 
. And with all these upcoming matches, it's gonna be interesting to see how he navigates the club's dynamics... not an easy gig for a new boss
