Chelsea's Managerial Rollercoaster: Who Will Replace Liam Rosenior?

Chelsea Football Club has rarely been a place for patience, but the era under BlueCo has taken managerial volatility to a new extreme. The dismissal of Liam Rosenior after barely three months in charge is not just another chapter in the club’s chaotic recent history—it is a symptom of a deeper structural issue that continues to define Chelsea’s modern identity. As the club searches yet again for a new head coach, the question is no longer just “who comes next?” but rather “what kind of manager can survive—and succeed—within this environment?” Rosenior’s tenure, brief as it was, encapsulates many of the contradictions that have plagued Chelsea since the takeover. He arrived as a progressive, tactically intelligent coach with a reputation for developing young players and implementing structured, possession-based systems. His work at clubs like Hull City and Strasbourg suggested a manager capable of building long-term projects. Yet at Chelsea, he found himself in a dressing room filled wi...

Bayern Munich seeks to reintroduce the 'old' Joshua Kimmich.

According to Bild, Bayern Munich wants the 'old' Joshua Kimmich back.


Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, Kimmich was regarded as Bayern's midfield leader and one of the club's key players.

On and off the pitch, Der Rekordmeister saw the German international as a symbol of perfection.

However, when the 29-year-old originally refused to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, he was swiftly quarantined under Julian Nagelsmann.

Then, under Thomas Tuchel, Kimmich's role at the club was further reduced, with the former Bayern Munich head coach pushing the midfielder into an unfavorable right-back position.

Nonetheless, with big changes taking place at the Allianz Arena, returning the 29-year-old to his position as a leading midfielder is one of Max Eberl's top priorities.

It is reported that the German international has spoken with Bayern's head of sport, Vincent Kompany, and the club's sporting director, Christoph Freund, all of whom agree that they want Joshua Kimmich back.

The record champions believe João Palhinha is the ideal number six, allowing Kimmich to return to his position as number eight.

This would allow Kimmich to resume his role as midfield leader, with full support from those in control in Bavaria.  

Furthermore, while negotiations for a new contract have yet to begin, there is speculation that Kimmich might be named Bayern captain if he agrees to drop his salary demands and sign a new long-term contract at the Allianz Arena.
