Life begins for Chelsea under the new leadership of Liam Rosenior on Saturday, as the former Strasbourg coach takes the reins in west London. His first match was against Championship side Charlton in a Metropolitan Derby Cup tie.

Rosenior, who was named as Enzo Maresca’s replacement earlier this week, will be hoping for a more positive experience after watching Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat to local rivals Fulham from the managers’ box on Wednesday.

Standing in the way of a winning debut for the new Blues boss is Charlton, sitting uncomfortably close to the Championship relegation zone in 19th place. Nathan Jones’ Addicks have only managed one win in their last 11 matches.
