EPL: Why we lost 3-0 against Man City – Chelsea manager, Liam Rosenior
Chelsea manager, Liam Rosenior, has explained why his team lost 3-0 against Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.
Three goals from Jeremy Doku, Nico O’Reilly and Marc Guehi gave Pep Guardiola’s side the victory against the Blues at Stamford Bridge.
Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Rosenior admitted that Chelsea didn’t perform well in the second half against the Cityzens.
“In the second half, the performance was nowhere near what we wanted. There was no frustration with the first half; we were organised and very difficult to break down.
“Cucu’s goal is an inch. I still don’t know how close it is, but they have made the decision.
“The reality now is there are too many times we go a goal down, and it’s quickly followed by another and that can’t happen,” he said.
Chelsea remain in sixth position with 48 points from 32 games after losing against City at home.
