Chelsea’s recent appointment of their next permanent manager has dominated pre-match discourse, but attention must return to events on the field when the Blues visit local rivals Fulham.
Liam Rosenior was named as Enzo Maresca’s long-term successor on Tuesday, although Calum McFarlane, the club’s Under-21s manager, will lead Chelsea out at Craven Cottage. The interim boss clinched an impressive 1–1 draw at Manchester City last weekend as Enzo Fernández struck late.
