New manager Liam Rossini leads Chelsea to a winning start.

Chelsea heralded a new era with a dominant performance in the FA Cup third round, despite new manager Liam Rosenior only officially taking over the team on Thursday.

In this match, Chelsea displayed tremendous dominance on the field, with possession reaching as high as 78% in the first half. Although Jorel Hatto broke the deadlock in stoppage time, Chelsea maintained firm control of the tempo throughout the game.

In the second half, with goals from Torsen Adarabioyo and Mark Gioudo, and late goals from Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandes, Chelsea unsurprisingly defeated Charlton Athletic 5-1 and advanced to the next round.

In a post-match interview, Rossellini praised the team, saying, "I am very satisfied with the intensity and attitude of the team's pressing. Even in the deadlocked first half, we never lost control."

With Wednesday's League Cup semi-final against Arsenal looming, Rosseneil made eight bold changes to the starting lineup in his debut. This extensive rotation not only gave fringe players a chance to prove themselves but also demonstrated his confidence in the squad's depth.

Rossene emphasized: "If we want to have a great season, we have to rely on the strength of the whole team. Today I placed my trust in the players, and they rewarded me with their performance."

A clean and decisive victory allowed Chelsea to temporarily escape the shadow of their previous defeat to Fulham. For Rossenier, this FA Cup match was not only a trial run for his new role, but also a window for him to showcase his coaching philosophy to the fans. In a post-match interview, he stated frankly that the players' professional attitude filled him with confidence for the future.
