"Sánchez or Jørgensen? They have different qualities. Rob is outstanding from crosses and an outstanding shot-stopper. Filip has amazing qualities too. One of the reasons we won at Aston Villa was because we were so calm in possession. But players sometimes make mistakes. Filip isn't the first one to make a mistake, that's part of football, but he has put his hands up in the dressing-room."
"The last 15-20 minutes were crazy, but that's on me. We need to be better when setbacks happen, be calm and collected, and that didn't happen. It's a painful one because we were in the tie for 75 minutes."
"Three goals in the final 16 minutes saw European champions PSG build a commanding advantage ahead of next Tuesday's return fixture at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea had looked set to head back to London with a 2-2 draw, but two goals from Kvaratskhelia and one from Vitinha blew Rosenior's side away."
Chelsea suffered a 5-2 defeat to PSG in the Champions League last-16 first leg in Paris. Coach Liam Rosenior selected Filip Jørgensen as goalkeeper ahead of regular starter Robert Sánchez, a decision that proved costly when Jørgensen made an error leading to PSG's go-ahead goal. Midfielders Enzo Fernández and Moisés Caicedo criticized Jørgensen on the pitch. Despite the mistake, Rosenior defended his selection, noting both goalkeepers possess different qualities. Chelsea controlled the match for 75 minutes at 2-2 but conceded three goals in the final 16 minutes, including an unstoppable strike from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Rosenior acknowledged his team's poor handling of setbacks during the collapse.
