Brentford 0-0 Chelsea: Back underway for the second half at the Gtech Community Stadium.
๐ฃ๏ธ Xabi Alonso on Chelseaโs 3-0 defeat to Brentford [A] in the Premier League:
๐ค โIโm disappointed at the end with the second half and the result.
โThis is not enough to compete in the Premier League, not to be able to go for the 90 minutes. This is why today we were punished.
โAt the moment, we are not being consistent enough to compete during the whole game โ 45 [minutes] is not enough, you need to play the whole game knowing each detail is important and each action can be decisive.
โWe dropped our consistency, and our competitive mentality needed in the second half. It's about 95 minutes, and we have not been able to keep that level throughout these few games in the start of the season. It's something that we'll have to do better.โ

โWe concede the first goal but still during the game and when you lose shape, you are out of control, you concede in a transition and they do that well, things that we have worked [on]. So to be able to understand the game, to know what it takes to be competing until the end, itโs something that, itโs a process, it takes time for them to feel it and at the moment we are not feeling it fully to compete for the whole game.
โItโs not about talking or looking for excuses. We need to look at each other and know we have to work and improve.
โThere is still a long way to go, but we have to check many things.โ
