Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has refused to blame Wesley Fofana following his red card against Burnley in the Premier League.
The Blues shared the spoils against the Clarets at Stamford Bridge earlier today. They opened the scoring after just four minutes on the clock.
However, the club were unable to double their advantage and put unnecessary pressure on themselves with Fofana’s 72nd minute red card.
The Blues went on the defensive in the closing stages and eventually conceded in the 93rd minute after gifting a free header on goal.
Speaking after the game, Rosenior said that Fofana can’t be blamed for the stalemate and it has more to do with the overall performance.
He said: “That wasn’t on Wesley, that was on our performance. From the first goal, we lacked decision, I wanted us to create wave after wave of attack. We were too safe in possession.”
The Blues have temporarily jumped ahead of Manchester United to fourth on goal difference, but could go three points behind if the Red Devils beat Everton away from home on Monday.
