Funny moment at Chelsea, Rosenior will reunite with players he has punished

Gilabola.com – Liam Rosenior has just officially become Chelsea’s new coach, but now he is preparing for an awkward reunion with the player he once punished at Strasbourg for disciplinary issues, Emmanuel Emegha.

Chelsea had previously just announced that Rosenior had been appointed as their new coach to replace Enzo Maresca who was fired due to conflicts with club management.

However, there will be one interesting moment at Stamford Bridge because the English coach will be reunited with the player he once suspended due to disciplinary problems.

The player in question is Emmanuel Emegha, who was suspended by Strasbourg last December. At that time he was considered to have violated the club’s values, rules and expectations.

Even Rosenior then emphasized that the suspension was necessary, resulting in the player finally being suspended for one league match against Toulouse.

At that time, Strasbourg did not provide detailed information about why Emegha was punished, when the club emphasized that they still uphold ethics and professionalism in the dressing room.

Emegha is currently still playing for the Ligue 1 club, but his status has changed to a loan player after he agreed to accept a seven-year contract at Stamford Bridge starting next summer.

Inevitably, the opportunity for an awkward reunion between Rosenior and Emegha next season will be something interesting to look forward to, whether the two of them can put down old problems and now work together to carry the banner. Blue.

Actually, Rosenior wasn’t always harsh on Emegha either. When the striker moved to Chelsea, many Strasbourg fans were angry and disappointed, thinking that the club sold its players too easily.

There was even a protest banner from supporters asking Emegha to return the captain’s armband, and at that time Rosenior immediately defended his players, assessing what the supporters group had done was inappropriate.

The 41 year old coach said Emegha deserved to play for a big club because of his hard work and contribution. He also admitted that Strasbourg is currently still below the elite European clubs in terms of level.

The relationship between the two will now continue at Chelsea, although that will only happen next summer after Emegha’s loan contract ends. Rosenior is now planned to lead the first practice this weekend.

Our opinion

The reunion between Liam Rosenior and Emmanuel Emegha could be an interesting story at Chelsea. Despite the problems at their previous clubs, both of them need to show a mature attitude at their reunion so that they can be a profitable combination for their new club.
