Rosenior Is A Risk For Fulham – Danny Murphy

Former Chelsea player Danny Murphy has said that Liam Rosenior would be too much of a risk for Fulham after Marco Silva’s exit. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

Admitting that Rosenior would jump at the opportunity to manage in the EPL again, Danny stated that he expects Fulham to go for someone more experienced with English football.

Murphy added that he doesn’t see Lampard taking the job as well because he’ll most likely remain at Coventry City.

His words, “I think he’d jump at the chance. I think that would be a wonderful job for him.

I don’t think it’ll happen. I think Fulham will see that as too much of a risk because ultimately his time at Chelsea, although it started well, failed. Fulham’s not, although they’ve done brilliantly under Marco Silva and cemented their place in the Premier League comfortably, like top half side and play good football, I think that’s too big a risk for the club to take.

I think they’ll go with somebody more tried and tested at that level. I think Thomas Frank has ruled himself out of it, but I still think there’s enough coaches out there who’ve got a bit more experience in the Premier League than Rosenior – irrelevant of the connection between the club.

I would understand another club trying to get Lampard. What he’s done at Coventry is nothing short of remarkable in a short space of time. The way they play football, he’s improved players, knows the Premier League like the back of his hand, managed in the Prem for Everton and Chelsea.

I just can’t see, when he’s done that job getting them up and got the fans behind him, why… Well, there’s always a why – security, finances, there’s loads of reasons for managers and players to move. We all know that. I would understand Fulham trying, but I would be surprised if Frank’s loyalty didn’t keep him there, just to give it one go at Coventry and try and keep them up.

If he does manage to keep them up, a bit like Sunderland this year, it’d be a phenomenal achievement with the budget they’ve had. They haven’t been bouncing around from the Premier League to the Championship. They haven’t got a squad full of Premier League or half-Premier League players. I think he’ll see the challenge through. Although, part of me would be pleased if Fulham got him. Sorry, Coventry fans.”

WOW.
