Hull City’s Turkish owner Acun Ilicali has said he was right to sack Rosenior and even believes his current boss Sergej Jakirovic is a better manager for the Tigers.
He told SunSport: “Liam is a fantastic guy and good coach — but his philosophy of how to play was not mine.
“So rather than get him to change, it was better for me to change the coach.
“Liam has a style that is taking him in his direction and I didn’t want to push him in mine.
“His way of football is suitable for Chelsea and big clubs because it needs high-quality players superior to others in the league.
“But here at Hull I wanted a different kind of attacking style which is entertaining as well as getting results.
“We weren’t on the same page and I talked to him often about this. And in the end I decided to part ways.”
