Chelsea Fans in Agreement as Liam Rosenior Interrupts Joao Pedro Interview

Many fans reached the same conclusion when Joao Pedro's post-match interview was interrupted by Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior on a memorable Wednesday night in Naples.

Chelsea came from behind to secure their place in the Champions League round of 16 as a second-half brace from Pedro sealed a hard-fought 3-2 win over Napoli.

Since arriving at Stamford Bridge, the likeable Rosenior has spent plenty of time with the in-form Pedro, who has more goal involvements (13) this season than any other Premier League summer signing.

“I think I've had very, very good conversations with him already, probably four in my office,” Rosenior said of Joao Pedro after Wednesday's win. “I think he's sick of my office."

“I've said to him: ‘If you play with intensity, with your quality, the quality comes out’," he added. "The two goals are fantastic but the way he held the ball up for the team, the way he sprinted and started that press, the harder you work, the better you are as a player.”

Rosenior is clearly a huge fan of the Brazilian forward and, after the full-time whistle in Naples, he gatecrashed Pedro's post-match media duties.

As seen in the footage below, Pedro was speaking about his outing against Antonio Conte's side when he spotted Rosenior in the corner of his eye. "The gaffer is great!" he laughed, before the pair exchanged a hug.

Here's how fans have reacted to the clip.

One wrote: "Look at the connection between Joao Pedro and Liam Rosenior here, I absolutely love him. How are Chelsea fans not behind our gaffer, good person, good coach, so likeable."

A second commented: "How am I not supposed to be emotionally invested in this?" while a third commented: "The amount of time I have watched this is so unhealthy. You can clearly see a healthy bond between the coach and his players."

A fourth wrote: "I’m sold," and a fifth added: "I actually love him man."

Joao Pedro gives insight into difference between Liam Rosenior and Enzo Maresca

“I think Liam is electric,” Pedro told CBS Sports on Wednesday night. “He wants to play with more intensity, to be more compact. If you see my second goal, I was low."

“He wants us to come low to connect the team and create space for others to run behind," added the Brazilian forward. "Enzo is more with the ball; he’s very good. But that’s the main difference."
