This video can not be played Figure caption, Fernandez fires Chelsea to FA Cup final showdown with Manchester City By Phil McNulty Chief football writer at Wembley Published 16 minutes ago 62 Comments Liam Rosenior's thoughts would have been worth a lot more than a penny as Chelsea 's triumphant players took the acclaim of their supporters inside Wembley after reaching the FA Cup final. Chelsea 's 1-0 win against a disappointing Leeds United showed much of the best of a talented group of players - but also some of the worst given their desperate efforts that led to Rosenior being shown the door after only 106 days.
If Rosenior was watching this scrappy semi-final, decided by Enzo Fernandez's first-half header, he would be right to question where all that fight and determination on show at Wembley were when he was at the helm. These are the basics any head coach should be able to take as a given, but were absent under Rosenior during a desperate run of five league losses without scoring, a fate that had not befallen Chelsea since 1912. Here, with an FA Cup final against Manchester City back at Wembley on 16 May as the prize, those qualities miraculously – or perhaps predictably – returned, allowing Chelsea to grind out victory.

Chelsea 's players, and their derided owners BlueCo, now have the opportunity to save a shambolic season with silverware, a trick the club have performed often in the past. Chelsea reach FA Cup final after Fernandez winner against Leeds Hapless Chelsea owners have built a monument to chaos and decline Published 3 days ago Roman Abramovich's "hire 'em, fire 'em" strategy inflicted instability on Chelsea , but was also the catalyst for great glory. In the Abramovich era, which stretched from July 2003 to May 2022, Chelsea won 18 major honours and two Community Shields, contesting 30 finals under 15 managers, including caretakers and interims.
The classic case came in 2012, when caretaker manager Roberto di Matteo won the Champions League and FA Cup after succeeding the sacked Andre Villas-Boas. Under BlueCo's leadership, Chelsea have won two major honours - the Conference League and Club World Cup - and have now reached three finals under eight managers, including caretakers and interims. Now, from the wreckage of a chaotic campaign, Chelsea could perform the feat again - providing the players who have gone missing so often this season show up against Manchester City and play to their capabilities.
It was clear from Rosenior's latter days that he had lost the faith of the dressing room. A dismal 3-0 loss at Brighton was the final straw for an ownership who desperately wanted the 41-year-old - brought in from another of their clubs, Strasbourg - to succeed as a symbol of their multi-club model.
