Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior laughs off online comparisons to David Brent and Will from The Inbetweeners and explains honest relationship with forward Joao Pedro

“It doesn’t affect me because I’m too old by about three or four years, I’m not on social media,” he told Sky Sports. "My kids are all over it and when they see funny pictures of Will from The Inbetweeners, or David Brent, they send it to me and laugh at me. They love it!

"There was one about my dress sense where they said I had decent dress sense - my daughter thought that was hilarious. She hates my dress sense!”

"[The scrutiny] does affect your family, I’ve had conversations with them to just enjoy what’s an amazing experience for me and hopefully they can see some really special days to come at this club.“

"I don’t think about it. If I think about what people are thinking of me or saying in the media or in the press, I can miss out so many things here. There’s enough on my plate with the job I’ve got to do here.

"My motivation is just to make this club as successful as possible and to win the next game. All my energy and time is focused on my players, the team, the way we do the team meetings and the way we train.”

“The other stuff is just noise, and I can’t affect it anyway - apart from by winning games of football.”

He said: "When you make a football decision some of it’s tactical, 20 per cent, it’s the emotional side, 20 per cent, energy 20 per cent, the opposition system 20 per cent, there’s so many things that roll into one to make that decision.”

"I don’t think we were far off in the first half but we didn’t take care of the ball, and our energy levels were lower because we were chasing it for a lot longer than I expected.”

“People talk about the tactical changes but the resilience of the team, their spirit was the contributing factors to the second-half performance.”
