A furious Rosenior was captured on TV in the warm-up at the Emirates, prior to Chelsea's Carabao Cup defeat on Tuesday, telling a member of Arteta’s backroom staff to stay in their own half.

Rosenior explained on Thursday: “I’m not here to have mind games, it’s just what I think is right and respectful.”
