'We got what we deserved' - Xabi Alonso admits Chelsea must improve following Hull City setback

Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso has delivered a blunt assessment of his team's performance following a frustrating 2-2 draw against Hull City. Despite taking an early lead, the Blues were forced to settle for a point after a series of defensive lapses allowed the visitors to remain unbeaten.

Xabi Alonso did not hold back in his post-match analysis after seeing his Chelsea side surrender their advantage at Stamford Bridge. It marked the second consecutive league game in which the Blues failed to hold onto a lead, having suffered a similar fate last weekend when Morgan Rogers' opener was overturned in a 2-1 defeat to Arsenal. The Spaniard expressed significant frustration with the lack of consistency shown by his players, suggesting that a brief period of dominance was nowhere near enough to secure three points in the Premier League.
