Liam Rosenior Takes The Helm: What His Appointment Means For Chelsea's Future.

Liam Rosenior’s appointment as Chelsea head coach signals a deliberate shift towards a younger, more relational, tactically flexible project built for the long term rather than another short-term reset. It is a gamble on potential and process, but one that fits the club’s multi‑club model and the profile of a squad crying out for clarity, accountability, and a clear identity.​ Who Liam Rosenior Is – And Why Chelsea Chose Him Liam Rosenior arrives at Stamford Bridge on a contract running until 2032 after an impressive spell with Strasbourg, where he guided the club to European qualification for the first time in 19 years. Before that, he built his reputation with Derby County and Hull City, plus coaching work at Brighton, moving rapidly from retirement to the dugout. ​ Chelsea’s ownership have turned to him as their fourth permanent head coach since the BlueCo takeover in 2022, replacing Enzo Maresca after tensions over interference and protection from above. The choice of Rosenior refl...

A young Real Madrid player is expected to play a bigger part in future games.


Following Real Madrid's devastating 2–5 loss to FC Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final, Carlo Ancelotti has been the target of a lot of criticism.

The Real Madrid manager's choice to start Aurelien Tchouameni at center back instead of Raul Asencio is one of the main criticisms leveled at him.

The Frenchman has had some success at center back, but Sunday's match ended badly as the Barça onslaught completely destroyed the player.

Raul Asencio will become more well-known.


Raul Asencio is expected to play a larger role in the starting lineup in the upcoming games, according to Mario Cortegana of The Athletic, despite the mounting worries about Real Madrid's defensive shortcomings.

Every time manager Ancelotti has given the 21-year-old La Fabrica graduate a chance, he has performed admirably.

However, club sources maintain that it was always going to be tough for him to start against Barcelona last Saturday because Los Blancos had maintained a clean sheet against RCD Mallorca in the semi-final.

However, after the final disaster against Barcelona, a change is now considered necessary, and Asencio will be given a bigger position in the team as a reward for his performance.

Real Madrid has no intention of acquiring a new center-back this month, and Ancelotti must begin to have greater faith in the 21-year-old young player given Antonio Rudiger's knee issues.

The defending Spanish and European champions will also benefit from David Alaba's impending return, as the Austrian is anticipated to be reincorporated into the match dynamics starting this week.
