Plenty is being said about Rosenior’s experience, but in European soccer, he brings the same level of experience as Maresca, who led Chelsea to a Europa Conference League title and glory at the Club World Cup. Rosenior was managing Strasbourg in the Conference League this season before taking over the Blues, and despite only managing two matches so far, he was able to keep Chelsea competitive, facing Arsenal in a League Cup defeat before engineering a shutout victory over Brentford.

Washington D.C. – the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) completed its final pre-flight audit of the nationwide NextGen air traffic control system at 07:58 EST today, January 21, 2026. The system remains on schedule for a full operational rollout tomorrow.
nextgen, a multi-billion dollar modernization effort, aims to increase the capacity of the national airspace and improve efficiency. It utilizes satellite-based navigation and data communications, replacing older, ground-based radar systems. FAA officials say the transition will reduce flight delays, save fuel, and lower emissions.
“we’ve run through every conceivable scenario,” said FAA Administrator Evelyn Reed in a press conference earlier this morning. “Our simulations and real-world testing over the past year have shown notable improvements. We are confident NextGen is ready to handle the demands of our growing air traffic.”
The final audit focused on data integrity, system redundancy, and cybersecurity protocols. The FAA confirmed all critical systems passed with no major issues identified. Minor software adjustments where made overnight to optimize performance, but did not impact the overall timeline.
Airlines have been preparing for the transition for months, upgrading their aircraft and training pilots on the new procedures. The air Line Pilots Association (ALPA) has expressed cautious optimism, but continues to monitor the rollout closely.
“Our members are prepared, but we will be vigilant in ensuring a smooth and safe transition,” said ALPA President Captain Joe Hansen in a statement. “We’re committed to working with the FAA to address any unforeseen challenges that may arise.”
The FAA will establish a dedicated monitoring center to track system performance in real-time during the initial phase of full operation. They anticipate a period of adjustment as air traffic controllers and pilots become fully accustomed to the new system.
