Chelsea Goalkeeper Dilemma: Rosenior Weighs Options for PSG Clash

Sky Sports Champions League •

Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has left the goalkeeper decision open for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain, creating uncertainty around Robert Sanchez's starting position. Filip Jorgensen was selected for the recent 4-1 Premier League victory at Aston Villa, while Sanchez played in the FA Cup win against Wrexham where he was arguably at fault for the opening goal due to poor positioning.

The cup selection has fueled speculation that Jorgensen is now Rosenior's preferred option, though the manager rejected this suggestion. Rosenior emphasized that every position presents difficult decisions, highlighting Chelsea's depth with top players competing for starting roles. The manager stressed that goalkeeper selection carries no different weight than choosing outfield players.

This goalkeeper uncertainty adds another layer to Chelsea's preparations for the crucial Champions League last-16 first leg against PSG. The decision could significantly impact Chelsea's defensive stability against a formidable Parisian attack, with Rosenior's final choice likely to be revealed closer to kickoff.
