Chelsea manager Rosenior keeps faith in keepers, James extends contract

Asked if he was content with the pair, Rosenior told reporters: "For sure... His (Jorgensen's) performance against PSG for 75 minutes was magnificent. 

"He makes a mistake, we get punished and we go on to lose the game in a manner which we definitely shouldn't have lost," he added ahead of their Premier League game at home to Newcastle United on Saturday. 

"Rob Sanchez is one of the best goalkeepers in the league. There's no question about those two players' quality at this level ... I've got no issues, no lack of trust with the two goalkeepers I have or the team."

Chelsea, fifth in the standings, will look to bounce back from their defeat when they host 12th-placed Newcastle, who find themselves facing a balancing act.
