How damaging will the shock Tottenham defeat be for Chelsea & Alonso?
Description
For just the second time in 35 years, Chelsea have been beaten by Tottenham at Stamford Bridge.
Matt Davies-Adams, Simon Johnson and Luke Bosher assemble to look back on the horror 2-0 defeat by rivals Spurs on Saturday evening.
We dissect the hugely disappointing performance and result - which raises questions about Xabi Alonso’s game management. Why weren’t changes made sooner? Why did Cole Palmer lose his head? And what will Chelsea do if Joao Pedro is out for an extended period of time?
Elsewhere, CFCW fought from a goal down to beat Crystal Palace - and go top of the WSL table!
