๐ฃ๏ธ Xabi Alonso on Chelseaโs 2-2 draw with Hull City [H] in the Premier League:
๐ค โItโs all maybe entertaining, but I hope that one day you say it was a boring game and we win and we donโt give these entertaining moments.
โIt will take time to or it will take moments to fix them when we get the lead and you still need to be competing and not to give the chance so easily for them to come back, especially in the first goal, we can do much better.
โIt was too soft to give them this hope because until then we were controlling, we were creating chances, but that momentum that we had changed the mood and the score of the game and itโs something that we need to be talking [about].
โWe will get better, but itโs having an impact on our performances at the moment.โ
๐ค On whether changing to a back four was an effort to stop conceding the amounts of goals:
โItโs about the profile of the players. You can say it was back three or four, so itโs about the choice of the players, their qualities, where they play better. Today we played with Malo [Gusto], he was playing in good positions, trying to find him and on the right linking with other players, so it wasnโt that much of a change for me.
โI think that we are attacking better than defending in every part. We know that itโs a big topic and a big theme for us. For sure itโs just four games, but the dynamic in terms of conceding, I donโt like it and we need to do much better. Open play, set-pieces, long balls, this toughness, this competitive sense, we can do better.โ
๐คทโโ๏ธ On whether he sees a real desire from his players to defend:
โWe can do better, we can do better for sure. We need to know that even when we have the lead, a very important part of the game is to hold together, to keep the distances, to go intense in the situations to defend. Iโm sure that we can do better.
โWe need to be aware that from any situation, any team in the Premier League can hurt you.
โToday it was from a long ball, two bounces, the way it happened. If you are soft or if you are not prepared, you will get punished and we have been punished that way.โ
