“He had 0 successful dribbles and 7 duels lost” , player faces tough task to impress Rosenior after Charlton performance despite win
Liam Rosenior’s debut as Chelsea manager went smoothly with a dominant victory over Charlton, though Alejandro Garnacho’s performance was underwhelming.
Chelsea secured a comfortable 5-1 triumph at The Valley in an FA Cup third-round match that could have posed challenges. Five different players found the net, with Jorrel Hato’s strike standing out as the most impressive.
Rosenior implemented more lineup changes than anticipated following the loss to Fulham. Garnacho received his first starting opportunity in three matches, positioned on the left flank after being absent from the Manchester City and Fulham fixtures.
The former Manchester United player had difficulty influencing the match, particularly during the opening period. While his second-half showing improved slightly, the overall display fell short of expectations.
A managerial change offers fresh opportunities for all squad members. Although Garnacho enjoyed playing time under previous boss Enzo Maresca, his statistics from this match suggest he needs to elevate his game to impress the new manager.
FotMob data reveals concerning numbers: zero successful take-ons, no on-target attempts, and losing the ball in seven physical confrontations.
The article concludes with a question about how Rosenior can maximize the potential of the Argentine international, who joined from Manchester United during the summer transfer window for approximately £40m but has shown inconsistent form.
