Brentford Beat Chelsea 3 0 to Shatter Alonso’s London Honeymoon Brentford's resounding 3 0 victory over Chelsea on Friday night served as a harsh reality check for Xabi Alonso's struggling side.
The loss, which capped off a dismal run of one point from their last three league games, exposed the Blues' defensive vulnerabilities and highlighted the gulf in class between the two teams.
Chelsea's inconsistent form has been a concern since the transfer window closed, with 19 goals scored in their first four matches contrasting sharply with just one point earned over their subsequent three outings.
