©️UEFA 2026 Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior lauds the second-half showing of Cole Palmer who helped turn their Champions League clash against Napoli in their favour. The 3-2 victory, thanks to a brace from Joao Pedro, saw the Blues finish in the top eight and avoid a playoff tie. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Intro 0:27 Firstly to get through in this competition is the most important thing. In terms of the season and time on the pitch with the players, it will help. I've had no time - that's not an excuse, it's a fact. 1:08 There's no way Cole could have started this game and played 60/70 minutes. I thought later in the game we would be stronger. I thought Cole was magnificent. We need to look after him.  2:57 I wanted to go man for man all over the pitch; I wanted to be really aggressive. When Napoli started to miss our press out and go more direct, the distances were a bit bigger. 3:40 Five wins from six? It's not about me. I give the credit to the players. They lost a manager they really expected for reasons beyond my control or knowledge.  4:40 Where does this rank personally? It's not bad. But again, it's not about me. I'm here to win and it's my job to win games as manager of Chelsea. I'm already focused on West Ham on Saturday. 5:02 Sterling’s departure? He is a magnificent guy and player. There are a lot of positive things going on the background that I have nothing to do with. I wish Raheem and his family all the best. 5:37 Joao Pedro impact? For sure. Carlo Ancelotti is one of my heroes so I don't want to tell him how to do his job. I've had four really good conversations with Joao already in my office - I think he's sick of my office. @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
