Rogers has done quite well since joining the Blues, and he has impressed in the Premier League.

Despite the defeat against Arsenal, Rogers produced an effective performance for his team, and there is no doubt that he will be a key player for the remainder of the season as well.

Chelsea have started the season well under new manager Xabi Alonso, and there were plenty of positives for them despite the defeat against Arsenal. The defending Premier League champions were always the favourites heading into the game with a much more settled side.

Chelsea will feel that they can improve in the coming months.

Rogers remains important for Chelsea

Meanwhile, Rogers will look to build on his strong start to life at Chelsea and improve further. The Blues will be hoping to return to the Champions League and fight for trophies this season. Rogers will be crucial to their hopes of doing well.
