Ah, Chelsea fans, gather here make we yan small! E don dey hot for Stamford Bridge as the Blues don finally show Enzo Maresca the door. E be like say dem sabi how to sack manager well well, but this time na serious matter wey dem dey find solution for.
Maresca no just pack him bag and waka go because him no fit manage the team. Na im carry two trophies come house and turn Chelsea to champions of the world. But as 2026 begin, the wahala don start again. Chelsea dey fifth for the league table, with Arsenal dey 15 points ahead. Chai! No be small trouble o!
So, who go fit take over this hot seat wey no dey green? Dem dey eye Liam Rosenior, wey don show say him sabi ball for Stade de Strasbourg. E don do well as head coach, but the big question be: how e go cope for the big boys league?
If you dey ask wetin happen last summer when Rosenior bin get sack, you no dey alone. But no be say e no fit do the job o, na wetin we go look into today. Him come from football family, wey be son of the legendary Leroy Rosenior. D guy don play for some solid clubs like Fulham and Brighton, so him know wetin e dey talk about!
After him playing career, him still dey play as pundit for Sky Sports, but no be only that; him passion catch am for coaching. From Brighton youth to Derby County, e don show say him get plans wey dey work for him.
At Derby, him try take the team from ground zero, but na Paul Warne wan collect the job after Rooney waka. No worry, rain no fall forever, because Hull City call am later, wey he use take small time raise dem from relegation zone to safety.
But wetin con happen when him dey at Hull? Dem end up sacking am after him bring dem close to play-offs, and na wetin dey scatter my head! Dem for allow am finish wetin he start, but na wetin e be! No be say na di end for am sha; BlueCo don introduce am to Strasbourg where e shine!
For Strasbourg, Rosenior manage to bring dem from middle table to top of league and even qualify for UEFA Conference League. People wey sabi say the guy fit manage well, but how e fit land for Chelsea we go see? He don use strategy wey dey different but effective, so we go see if hin go come bring come Stamford Bridge vibes.
But make we dey frank; he get some unique play style wey fit work for Chelsea. E dey like using back three formation, sweet style wey fit manage the young players wey dey dey for the team. Plus, him team dey press well! E no dey play like those teams wey dey shake ground like say dem no dey fear anybody!
But dem dey talk say set-pieces na wetin dey hot for England now, and Rosenior sabi the matter. Why? Because him Strasbourg don score more goals from set-pieces than anybody else last season. If na dis effectiveness he bring come, Chelsea fit thrive under am.
As we dey wait for the next move from Chelsea board and if Rosenior fit enter the kind pressure wey dey for Stamford Bridge, one thing we fit agree on be: Chelsea na big name and dem fit take risk with young coach like Liam. Make we rest matter for here, we go dey follow before dem start to announce! I go come give una update as e dey hot!
