Rosenior Makes Flying Start as Chelsea Rout Charlton in FA Cup
Liam Rosenior ended Chelsea's five-match winless streak with a 5-1 victory over Charlton, featuring eight changes and key contributions from Marc Guiu and Jorrel Hato.
- Liam Rosenior's Chelsea opened his tenure with a 5-1 FA Cup win at The Valley on January 10, 2026, beating Charlton Athletic to reach round 4 with goals from Marc Guiu, Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernández.
- Replacing Enzo Maresca, Liam Rosenior reshuffled Chelsea with eight changes and left Cole Palmer out, amid claims he was chosen as a 'yes-man' due to the Strasbourg ownership link.
- Jorrel Hato opened the scoring in stoppage-time of the first half with a volley after a miscued header, and Tosin Adarabioyo doubled the lead early in the second half with a header from Facundo Buonanotte's free-kick.
- Rosenior said `I was delighted with the starting XI, I was delighted with the front three` and added `Malo, Cole and Reece were precautionary`; Chelsea prepare to host Arsenal on Wednesday.
- Data Debrief noted Rosenior's win was Chelsea's first winning debut since Antonio Conte in August 2016, and Rosenior, known for leading Strasbourg to seventh place, raised hopes of Wembley in May.
