Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior, speaking to TNT Sports: “A tough night. We knew it was a tough ask and to start the game in the manner that we did. We had the ball in the final third. you cna’t make mistakes at this level. We had the ball in their box and Barcola hit one from 25 yards into the top corner. Their belief grows.
On difference between the two: “They were clinical. The third goal, ball breaks and he hits in the top corner. I haven’t looked at the stats yet, but we had a lot of shots. They didn’t make mistakes. I want to thank the fans because they saw how hard the lads worked.
On Mamadou Sarr: “Mamadou, he’s a very good player, but we missed our two starting right-backs. There are times when you have to put players in and you have to trust them. it took the wind out of our sails.
On Trevoh Chalobah injury: “Trevoh, I just asked the medical team. He’s got a high ankle sprain, so I’m praying it’s nothing too serious because we can’t lose another defender.
“When you go through a difficult run, you have to make sure your habits are right. We have a really difficult game at Everton and we have to be at our best to get a result there.”
