Arsenal are going to quickly become Liam Rosenior’s least favourite team during his tenure as Chelsea manager.
So far, Mikel Arteta’s men are the only side to beat Chelsea since Rosenior replaced Enzo Maresca last month.
Arsenal have already beaten their London rivals twice since Rosenior’s arrival, winning both legs of their Carabao Cup semi-final tie.
Wesley Fofana was solid against Arsenal 💪
Who do you want to see partner the Frenchman if he stays fit?
Arteta appears to appreciate Rosenior’s work, but Arsenal fans have not been as kind when speaking about the 41-year-old.

Arsenal fans launch ‘schoolteacher’ jibe at Liam Rosenior
Following his move from Strasbourg to Chelsea, Rosenior has faced a lot of unfair criticism, partly because of some of the things he has said in interviews.
At the Emirates, Arsenal supporters continued the mockery of the Chelsea boss as he was forced to watch his side exit the Carabao Cup.
According to Sky Sports reporter Gary Cotterill, some Arsenal fans yelled at Rosenior to sit down while calling him a “schoolteacher”.
Did Rosenior get his tactics wrong against Arteta? 🤔
Hindsight is a wonderful thing…
Despite his critics, the former Strasbourg boss has still made a good start at Chelsea. They recently qualified for the Champions League last 16 and currently sit just one point below fourth.
The Blues will now be looking to bounce back with a win when they take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League this Saturday.
Liam Rosenior has already proven that he’s a good coach in just eight games at Chelsea
It is early days. Rosenior has not won anything at Stamford Bridge yet, but he deserves way more respect than he is currently getting.
Rosenior did a good job at Strasbourg, leading them to Conference League qualification last season, and almost guided Hull City to the Championship play-offs in 2024. It is not bad for a young coach.
He is now winning games at Chelsea, picking up six victories from eight fixtures. And across those matches, Chelsea supporters have seen great in-game management and substitutions from their head coach. Again, he deserves more respect and less mockery.
