Liam Rosenior wants to turn Chelsea into pressing monsters like Arsenal but admits he hasn’t been able to — and explains why:
“You always want to be at the top of every category. Arsenal are a very physical, very high pressing, high energy team. I want us to be high pressing and high energy as well.
“That is something that you can’t solve in a short space of time. That comes over a period of months and hopefully years.
“It’s OK in your mind to say, ‘I want to play this way’. But you have to tailor that to the players, and their experiences, and where they are at this stage of the season.
“You can’t come in and completely change their training schedule and what they are used to, because they will get injured. This is a longer term thing for me to address.
“At the moment, my focus, and the way we work, is game by game, what’s best for these players to win. That’s how it’s going to be for the rest of the season.”
