Rosenior has had to get to grips with his new surroundings quickly. It was on 6 January that it was announced he would be joining the Blues. His first match – a 5-1 win at Charlton Athletic in the FA Cup third round – arrived four days later.

That was the first of eight games he has taken charge of in a busy first month at Chelsea and our fixture schedule shows no signs of easing off. Following the midweek trip to Arsenal for the second leg of our Carabao Cup semi-final, the Blues are straight back to work with two Premier League fixtures in the space of four days.

The first of those arrives on Saturday, when we travel to Molineux to face Wolverhampton Wanderers, with Rosenior getting another chance to learn more about his players as he looks for an instant reaction to our cup exit.

‘I'm learning about the group all of the time, in every performance, not just in games but in every training session – their characters,’ he said. ‘They know the journey that I want to go on with this club and with them.

'You get set-backs in life, it's how you respond. The response in training and in the meetings that we have had has been really positive. We have to now focus on the future, which is Wolves on Saturday.’

It already seems a long time ago that Rosenior first stepped into the Chelsea dugout, with so many games played already, and it has been an impressive start with three wins from three games so far in the Premier League, with our only defeats coming in the League Cup to Arsenal.

However, despite that strong opening to his time with the Blues, he admits the process of getting to know his squad and make his mark on the team continues to be an ongoing task.

‘I think any manager would say, before you walk into a club you watch and analyse the games from before, but what's really important to me is that you don't use that information too much,’ Rosenior went on.

‘You try to take on the information when you're in. You don't make judgments on players without seeing them or meeting them in the first aspect. When they come in, I am just myself with my staff, in my own way, and then we judge every training session.

‘A lot of what we’ve spoken to the players about is not football-related. They're already fantastic players and they're already fantastic people, which is what I've learned, so it’s a lot to do with reactions, body language and spirit. I think they are the intangibles that make a big difference to the success of a football club.’
