That was despite Xabi Alonso telling us a day previous that he intended on using him against League One visitors Luton. Chelsea did not need him. They won by two goals‚ with Danny Welbeck scoring and Hakeem Odoffin sending Estevao Willian's shot into his own net. They arguably should have won by six with the chances that Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers had.
