After going 3-0 down to a devastating defeat to London rivals Arsenal at Emirates, there was need to point out the weaknesses of the team in order to improve.
Chelsea defence has witnessed an aging back line as they have been too slow to cover up their defensive line whenever attack breaks lose. The Chelsea Boss Antonio Conte has refused to be asterik on any player to be specific or the area of the team underperforming, as he has holistically blame the whole team for losing. But one player that has boldly come out to pin point the area of the team that has given them course for concern is the defense.
Eden Hazard was quoted as saying on the club's official website;
"We came to win the match but we made mistakes, for the first goal, another for the second and then before we knew it we were already 3-0 down," Hazard told the club's official website.
"Every weekend at the moment we are having to come back and score. We did it at Leicester but against Arsenal, who were playing at home, it was not possible.
"There are no excuses. It was not good."
