Liam Rosenior has broken his silence on his turbulent spell as Chelsea manager, insisting "I'm not a joke" in response to media comparisons with David Brent, as reported by Football365.

The 42-year-old Englishman, now in charge of Paris FC, described his time at the London club as the "best experience" of his life despite the difficulties, according to Trivela. He was appointed in January but left after just four months, with the treatment he received from the English media still bothering him, reports Voetbalprimeur.

The Evening Standard also highlights his criticism of the media's handling of his tenure at Stamford Bridge.
