“What I love” – Liam Rosenior waxes lyrical over “world class” Chelsea ace after Hull win
Liam Rosenior hailed Pedro Neto as “world class” and admitted he wasn’t aware of the stick he’s been receiving online.
The Blues thrashed Hull City 4-0 on Friday night to advance to the FA Cup fifth round, and give the perfect response after dropping points against Leeds in midweek.
The star of the show was Pedro Neto who scored a hat-trick, whilst Estevao also got amongst the goals after missing a sitter in the first half.
Liam Rosenior praises “world class” Pedro Neto
As expected Rosenior made a number of changes to the team which drew with Leeds, and Neto returned to the starting line-up.
The Portuguese appeared to be playing more centrally as a number ten, with Estevao and Garnacho occupying the wide areas.

Neto missed a good chance in the first half, but eventually opened the scoring with a lovely finish from outside the box.
The 25-year-old completed his hat-trick in the second half with a goal direct from a corner, and another nice finish after good work from Liam Delap.
It was the first time Neto had found the back of the net since the previous round against Charlton, and he’s come in for a lot criticism, particularly on social media.
Rosenior was asked about the social media criticism, and admitted he wasn’t aware as he labelled Neto “world class.”
“No, I’m not aware of it. I don’t know why that would be the case because Pedro Neto brings us so many different qualities that you need,” he told his post-match press conference.
“For me, he’s a world-class player.”

Rosenior carried on and stated he also loves what Neto sacrifices for the team, and thinks he will be really important for the rest of the season.
