Rosenior breaks silence on Chelsea exit

[Getty Images] Liam Rosenior has addressed his Chelsea exit for the first time since being unveiled as Paris FC manager. The 42-year-old has made a swift return to work in France, where he previously enjoyed success with Strasbourg before his spell of less than four months at Stamford Bridge last season. After his time at Chelsea ended with five consecutive defeats without a goal, Rosenior spoke about his departure while meeting the media at Paris FC's training ground. "We joined the club in the middle of a season and at a difficult moment, and I learned many lessons," Rosenior said. "There are things I definitely could have done better and things I could have taken more accountability for, but there were also positive aspects to what we did." He added: "I wish them all the best in the future. I think they have a fantastic manager in Xabi Alonso and I will be following their results. "Those lessons I take from Chelsea will help me in this role and, hopefully, help this club become a very big club in world football as well." Rosenior replaces Antoine Kombouare after Paris finished 11th in Ligue 1 last season, joining a club with significant investment and long-term ambitions under the ownership of the Arnault family, with Red Bull holding a minority stake. "Ligue 1 is a fantastic league," he continued. "I said that when I left Strasbourg for Chelsea. I feel that my staff and I have joined an exciting project with enormous potential. It was an opportunity I could not turn down."
