Episode notes
Chelsea’s honeymoon is officially looking shaky. After a frustrating defeat to Brentford, Akan unloads on Alonso’s tactics, substitutions and in-game management — questioning whether individual brilliance has been covering up much bigger problems all season.
From the Quenda vs Estevão decision to Brentford’s second-half tactical adjustments, the boys break down where Chelsea lost control and why patience with Alonso is already wearing dangerously thin.
