Strasbourg fans were furious with losing Liam Rosenior to Chelsea in January \u2013 but have ended up delighted with his replacement.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n If you enjoy Chelsea News coverage and want to see more of it, add us as a preferred source on Google to make us a favourite and see more of our content.<\/em><\/p>\n Chelsea aren\u2019t in action until Monday night, so we\u2019re really excited for tonight\u2019s Conference League semi final first leg featuring our sister club Strasbourg.<\/p>\n Gary O\u2019Neil took over from Liam Rosenior when the latter came to Chelsea in January, and has since continued his predecessor\u2019s good work. While their league form isn\u2019t as strong as last year, that\u2019s because of their deep run in the Coupe de France and Conference League.<\/p>\n The Athletic had a really interesting piece about how O\u2019Neil compared with Rosenior, featuring quotes from a Strasbourg fan.<\/p>\n \u201cO\u2019Neil is basically acting like a very down-to-earth football manager. He sticks to football and that is very much welcome because Liam Rosenior had a very high idea of himself. He had communication that was very sophisticated; he would speak about so many things and he had a kind of a posture that it was all about him.<\/p>\n \u201cGary O\u2019Neil is more of a regular football guy who speaks about football, very down to earth, and that\u2019s OK with us.\u201d<\/p>\n We all saw how Rosenior\u2019s style went down at Chelsea \u2013 hopefully he can learn to tweak his communication going forward.<\/p>\n Andoni Iraola has emerged as a top candidate for the Chelsea job \u2013 but Manchester United are keen on him too.<\/p>\n Mauricio Pochettino has been speaking about his time at Chelsea, and his words make us fear for the future even more.<\/p>\n DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CHELSEA NEWS APP FOR ALL THE LATEST UPDATES \u2013 STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE!
