While everyone was focused on the Champions League, Chelsea was seriously dealing with Leeds United. Chelsea was losing but the moment Alonso brought on the avengers Chelsea scored 6 goals in 45 minutes 😭😭😭. Chelsea’s games are too interesting!
🚨🗣 Ethan Ampadu: “It's hard to defend against the Chelsea attack. Honestly, I think they might win the domestic treble this season if they continue like this.”
Alonso said he had made it "hard" for his players in the first place.
🗣️ "I need to take my own blame and my own responsibility on the things that happen,"
🗣️ "I need to be able to help them better so they are not responsible, and after you need to react and think what's better for the team."
Alonso said the raft of substitutions he felt compelled to make should be considered "part of the game".
Valentine Barco 🗣️ “I feel good after playing another 90 minutes. I
said in my first interview at Chelsea that I was ready to play these games and ready for the Premier League.
It is physical and tough, but I’m ready to fight in every game."
“Scoring my first Chelsea goal was very special.
Hopefully, it will be the first of many. I spoke with my wife before the match and told her I would score for our baby.
After the goal, I did the celebration because my daughter’s name is Chema.
Interviewer: You both made an incredible difference in the game, but the Carabao Player of the Match is Cole. Will you do the honours, Morgan?
Morgan Rogers: Unfortunately, yes. It is rigged, honestly. Rigged.
Interviewer: Well done. I don’t know if Morgan Rogers was too happy with that! This is what he said before the interview started with Johnny. Have a listen.
Morgan Rogers: It is rigged! I’ve got four assists. Nah, nah, nah. Morgan! I can’t believe that. That is mental. He scored a penalty!
