Rosenior, 41, succeeded Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge after the Italian’s departure on New Year’s Day.

Since arriving from sister club RC Strasbourg Alsace in January, he has overseen eight wins from 11 matches in all competitions.

Speaking ahead of Saturday’s Premier League meeting with Burnley, Rosenior admitted he has postponed plans to find a permanent home.

“The job never ends. Just a day. I managed to switch off for a day,” he said.

I’m still in the hotel. I’ll probably be there until the end of the season. I don’t have time. I’m focused on this job. My living circumstances aren’t a priority right now.”

Strong start on the pitch

Chelsea are currently fifth in the Premier League, a position that could secure Champions League qualification given England’s coefficient ranking.

They have also progressed to the latter stages of the FA Cup and await their last-16 opponents in Europe.

Rosenior’s only defeats so far have come against league leaders Arsenal. in the Carabao Cup semi-finals.

A win against Burnley during Saturday’s Premier League clash would move Chelsea above rivals Manchester United, who play later on Monday.

Firm stance on racism

Rosenior also addressed the recent racism controversy involving Vinicius Junior during the Champions League clash between Benfica and Real Madrid.

“If I categorically heard racism and nothing was done about it, I would take my team off the pitch, I wouldn’t play the game,” he said.

I’m really lucky. I’m mixed heritage. My dad is black, my mum is white. What I learned in my life is everyone is pretty much the same,” he added.

Chelsea face a demanding run in March, including league fixtures against Arsenal and Aston Villa, alongside FA Cup and European commitments, as Rosenior looks to sustain early form despite his unsettled living arrangements.
