Tottenham Hotspur 0-2 Chelsea: 5 Talking Points & Tactical Analysis | Premier League 2019-20

3. Shabby Spurs shoot themselves in the foot as Chelsea score twice

Paulo Gazzaniga completely missed the ball and closed Alonso in when trying to clear

The pupil punched the air in delight, while the master disappeared right out of thin air just as Willian converted the penalty to double Chelsea's lead.

Credit Lampard for his preparation ahead of the game, as that, led to a clueless Spurs group.

Jan Vertonghen, although not on the spotlight in the opening half, had nowhere to go with Azpilicueta marauding forward time and time again. He was largely indecisive, not knowing when to apply the brakes or to mark. Chelsea had different ways of getting at Tottenham, and a number of times when the likes of Kante swept the ball into the box, the Belgian was seen in no man's land down the near post.

However, it was Aurier who was to blame for both the goals, in fact. For the first, he should have dealt much better with a long ball with no one rubbing shoulders with him. Instead, he conceded a corner.

When the kick was taken, as per footage, the right-back was pointing at his goalkeeper - nowhere near was his sight on the ball. When Willian drifted in down the left, he slowly jogged toward him and was eventually beaten. Lucas Moura too, had to come in and close the opponent down. Shoddy, lazy and careless was what it was.

No one, literally no one knew what Gazzaniga was doing there when he fouled Alonso. Neither did he get any contact with the ball, nor did he time his jump. Aurier on that occasion was the one who had to take care of Alonso, at first place.
