Liam Rosenior says Chelsea yet to decide whether to repeat huddle routine
Liam Rosenior said a decision was still to be made over whether Chelsea will conduct their pre-match huddle around the ball before Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 second leg meeting with Paris St Germain at Stamford Bridge.
It followed farcical scenes on Saturday when referee Paul Tierney found himself trapped in the middle ahead of kick-off before the Blues lost 1-0 to Newcastle.
Rosenior reiterated his stance that the ritual is not designed to intimidate or to annoy but would not say whether it would be repeated when his team look to claw back a 5-2 deficit from the first leg.
“I think it’s been blown out of proportion,” he said. “It’s a small thing among many serious things that we need to address, such as the massive game against PSG.
