Maxence Lacroix on Penders’ mistake: “He’s a young goalkeeper with a lot of talent, and he’ll learn from this experience. Mistakes happen in football, just as they do in life. We all make them, and we need to support him — which we will. We’re behind him. “He’ll help us this season, and now it’s our turn to help him.” (@ChelseaFC) #CFC

It was a tough one, but we need to keep going because there are more games in front of us and we want to do better.” (@ChelseaFC) #CFC

🚨🔵🎙️ Xabi Alonso admits disappointment : “We’re all disappointed with the result and the performance.

🚨🔵🎙️ Xabi Alonso on Chelsea’s defeat to Tottenham: “I think both teams had a few chances.

🚨🔵 Alonso says the team could have been more aggressive: "In some situations we could have been more aggressive. The idea was to go high and being more aggressive. But we have more to do to be better." (@SkySport) #CFC

🚨🔵🎙️ Xabi Alonso on Chelsea’s defeat to Tottenham: “We’re all disappointed with the result. Collectively and individually, we were not at our best level. “It came down to the first goal, which went their way. Playing with 10 men made things difficult, but we can do better. Chances were the main issue — they had few, and so did we. “At half-time, we spoke about the need to be patient and mature. We can do better.” (@SkySports) #CFC

🚨🔵 Daniel Sturridge says Welbeck should have started: "I think the manager got it wrong in terms of playing Quenda. I think the way in which they have played in the last couple of weeks, if Joao Pedro doesn't start, then the formation changes. "For Rogers and for Palmer, it has an impact on their natural way of playing, having a focal point.  "Is he as fast? No but he could've come in and done a job. Welbeck should've started today, it would've let the team be what they have been. "[Nicolas] Jackson is flying at the moment, should they have kept him?" (@SkySports) #CFC
