๐ฃ๏ธ Xabi Alonso on Chelseaโs 6-5 defeat [1-1 AFT] on penalties to @Liverpool_Always [A] in the Carabao Cup Round of 16:
๐ค โFor sure the outcome is not what we wanted.
โItโs not what we expected before the game. You know, once you reach the penalties, thereโs going to be a sad side. This is us in the case, but I have to say that the game we have played a very good competitive level, with good performance.
โWe showed an improvement, I would say. Thatโs what we wanted. We played with courage. The game was really close. It could have gone not many chances for both sides and we have tried to overcome difficult moments as well.
โAfter the injury, we had to deal with and to change a few things. But itโs a small setback in this competition. Itโs probably the least important competition for us in the year, so we need to move on. And as soon as we leave Anfield, our focus is on Saturdayโs Premier League [game]. This is the main and the most important thing.โ
๐ค ๐๐ง ๐ฐ๐ก๐ฒ ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐โ๐ฏ๐โ๐จ ๐๐ข๐๐งโ๐ญ ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐:
โWe started with Pedro [Neto], with Danny [Welbeck] and with Morgan [Rogers] up front.
โThe game had very intense moments. We knew that it was going to be physical and after we had to deal with Moi [Caicedo], he had little problems. Malo [Gusto], as well, he had cramps - so we were a little bit forced with substitutions.
โThe season is going to be long and there will be moments for everyone.
โIโm sure that Este will have his moment. Itโs my responsibility and we need to deal with that.โ
๐งฑ ๐๐ง ๐๐ข๐ค๐ ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ฌโ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐:
โHe looked really solid, with good composure. Like he had dealt well with Saturday.
โThis is what it takes in this job, to overcome difficult situations and he did quite well.โ

๐ฃ๏ธ Xabi Alonso ahead of Chelseaโs match against @ManchesterUnited [H] in the Premier League:
๐ฅ ๐๐ง ๐ญ๐๐๐ฆ ๐ง๐๐ฐ๐ฌ:
โMaxence [Lacroix] picked up an injury and we expect that he will not be ready before the international break. So he will be a few weeks out.
โNo issue [with Moises Caicedo]. He is ok for tomorrow.
โHe [Aaron Anselmino] is not available yet. He has had a few things, a few injuries, and it will take a few weeks until he is fully fit. We need to be cautious with him as heโs had a few of them, so he is still not there.
โYes, there is a chance [that Emiliano Martinez will be available before the international break]. We need to still wait for next week, but letโs see how things go. But there is a chance.โ
Alonso also confirmed that Jorrel Hato will be absent against United, but Pep Chavarria is in contention after missing the last three matches.
๐น ๐๐ง ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐๐:
โUnited have a good squad, they have good players, good manager, so itโs going to be a tough game and weโll have to be on our top in a good version of us to win the game.
โWe know how important it is, each game, and tomorrowโs is a big one against United in the early kick-off.
โWe are back in Premier League mode, and thatโs for me the main competition for us this year and almost every year, I would say. And itโs a big one.
โItโs one that we didnโt have that [much] time to prepare, but itโs really important after the last home game that we had, that we keep winning games, that we have this winning feeling. And we know that every game is tough and we are expecting that.โ

Chelsea fear defender Maxence Lacroix is set for a lengthy lay-off after suffering a serious hamstring injury.
Itโs understood that the France international, 26, could be out until January, meaning he could miss up to 10 matches.
The setback occurred at the end of the first half of Wednesdayโs Carabao Cup loss to Liverpool on penalties, as Lacroix sprinted and attempted to block a shot.
