Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior praised both Mamadou Sarr and his entire team after their impressive 4-0 FA Cup fourth-round victory over Hull City.
Sarr, recently brought into the side, delivered exactly what his manager wanted to see. “Mamadou was everything that I expect. I know Mamadou so well,” Rosenior said, stressing that the defender already understands his style of play and adapted quickly on the pitch.
Rosenior, however, was keen not to focus solely on one player. “But I don’t want to single players out. I just felt the whole team, from Garnacho’s energy and running Liam Delap, Estevao, midfield players, the back unit, Rob Sanchez. I just felt it was a really, really strong team performance and that’s what makes me so happy this evening,” he added.
With Pedro Neto scoring a hat-trick and Estevão also on target, Chelsea produced a complete display at both ends of the pitch.
The result underlined the growing cohesion in Rosenior’s squad and hinted that Sarr could become a key figure in Chelsea’s back line as the season’s cup campaign continues.
