form.<\/p>\n<p>Despite Chelsea\u2019s woeful Premier League form, Rosenior\u2019s side have the prospect to succeed in the FA Cup final this season as they play Leeds United within the semi-final at Wembley on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Based on bookmakers Betfair, Rosenior stays favourite to stay as Chelsea manager for the beginning of next season, while Filipe Luis, who held talks with BlueCo earlier

now until the tip of the season, I feel they\u2019ll give him that chance but he\u2019s got to complete on a high note, he\u2019s got to get some wins under his belt,\u2019 Hoddle said.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The rationale they brought him in is he\u2019s a young manager, he\u2019s a part of their project, in the event you like, if you desire to use that word, and I feel they\u2019ll give him that probability.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018But he\u2019s going to have to start out winning, even when he doesn\u2019t get within the Champions League, they\u2019re within the FA Cup semi-final so that they could actually win a trophy still.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I feel they\u2019ll stick with him and provides him a pre-season and I feel they\u2019ll start with him but he\u2019s going to have to start out next season in a positive way, if not, I feel then he may very well be on a little bit of dodgy ground.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories like this,\u00a0check our sport
