Levi Colwill on the loss to Brentford:
"It was tough. First of all, seeing the set piece, obviously we weren't the best. We tried to push and maybe overexpose ourselves, play some passes we shouldn't have and forced it. They hit us on the counter, which they're so good at, and got the second goal. The third goal really hit home and hurt."

"In the second half, we weren't good enough, obviously. We've got a lot to work on over the international break."

Xabi Alonso on what disappointed him in the loss against Brentford:
"We have dropped our consistency, our competitive mentality needed in the second-half. The small details can be decisive. You don't have to give advantage in these kind of games. It's about 95 minutes and we have not been able to keep that level and we will have to do better."

Xabi Alonso on the difficult job at #Chelsea:
"We knew it was a process, it's five games. In a competitive Premier League, every game is going to be hard."

Xabi Alonso on set-piece woes:
"Not just set-pieces, in defensive duels, in the build-up. We conceded the first goal and then we lost shape and conceded on a transition. To be able to understand the game and know what it takes to compete until the end. It's a process."
