Chelsea ayaa sii wajaheysa dhibaatooyin dhinaca difaaca ah, kaddib markii ay Sabtidii garoonkeeda Stamford Bridge ku kala baxeen barbaro 2–2 ah oo ay la galeen Hull City. Inkasta oo Chelsea ay xilli ciyaareedkan dhalisay 10 gool, haddana waxa laba gool ama ka badan laga dhaliyey mid kasta oo ka mid ah afartii kulan ee ugu horreeyey horyaalka. Kooxda ayaa hadda sagaal gool laga dhaliyey, iyadoo kaliya Crystal Palace iyo Ipswich Town ay ka badan yihiin goolasha laga dhaliyey kooxaha Premier League.
Dhibaatada difaaca ayaa sidoo kale soo jiitamaysay, iyadoo Chelsea aanay shabaqeeda ilaashan 20 kulan oo horyaalka ah oo xidhiidh ah, waana silsiladdii ugu dheerayd ee kooxda ku dhacda muddo 65 sano ah. Tababare Xabi Alonso ayaa kulamadii ugu dambeeyey dhowr jeer beddelay qaabka ciyaareed ee kooxdiisa, balse isbeddelladaasi weli ma aysan xallin dhibaatooyinka difaaca. Kulankii Hull, Chelsea ayaa laba jeer hoggaanka qabatay, waxaana goolasha u kala dhaliyey Morgan Rogers iyo Joao Pedro, halka Cole Palmer uu qayb ka qaatay labada gool.
Si kastaba, Hull City ayaa labada jeer soo laabatay, waxaana ciyaartu ugu dambayn ku dhammaatay barbaro 2–2 ah. Natiijadu waxay sii kordhisay walaaca laga qabo awoodda Chelsea ee dhinaca difaaca. Alonso ayaa qirtay inuusan ku qanacsanayn qaabka ay kooxdiisu u difaacanaysay, isaga oo ciyaartoydiisa ugu baaqay inay noqdaan kuwo adag, isku xidhan, isla markaana si wanaagsan ula tartama ciyaartoyda ka soo horjeeda.
Qaar ka mid ah goolasha Chelsea laga dhaliyey ayaa ka dhashay khaladaad shaqsiyeed. Jorrel Hato ayaa si khaldan u qiimeeyey kubbad soo karoorsan, taas oo keentay goolka barbaraha Hull, halka goolka labaad uu yimid kaddib markii Chelsea ay ku guuldarraysatay inay si fiican uga nadiifiso kubbad koorne ah. Dhibaatada Chelsea kuma koobna oo keliya kubbadaha go’an, maadaama goolal badan laga dhaliyey ay ka yimaadeen ciyaar furan. Taasi waxay muujinaysaa in kooxda ay weli u baahan tahay inay hagaajiso isku-xidhnaanta difaaca iyo sida ay uga falceliso marka ay kubbadda lumiso.
Dhanka kale, weerarka Chelsea ayaa ah qaybta ugu wanaagsan ee kooxda xilligan. Rogers, Palmer iyo Joao Pedro ayaa muujiyey awood weerar, balse qaab ciyaareedka wanaagsan ee weerarku ma daboolayo khaladaadka joogtada ah ee difaaca. Alonso ayaa sheegay in Chelsea ay ku jirto marxalad dib-u-dhis iyo isbeddel ah, iyadoo ay jiraan ciyaartoy iyo xubno cusub oo ka tirsan shaqaalaha tababarka. Tababaraha reer Spain ayaa aaminsan in kooxda ay u baahan tahay waqti, laakiin sidoo kale wuxuu doonayaa in ciyaartoydu si degdeg ah u hagaajiyaan adkaysiga, tartanka iyo feejignaanta difaaca.
Chelsea ayaa hadda isu diyaarinaysa kulanka ay Brentford la ciyaari doonto Jimcaha. Kulankaasi wuxuu Alonso siin doonaa imtixaan kale, gaar ahaan maadaama Brentford lagu yaqaan khatarta ay ka abuuri karto kubbadaha go’an.
Chelsea ayaa sidoo kale wajahaysa dhibaatooyin khadka dhexe ah kaddib dhaawaca Moises Caicedo, iyadoo kooxda ay ku guuldarraysatay inay suuqa kala iibsiga ku soo kordhiso Lamine Camara oo Monaco ka tirsan. Isku dayo ay ku doonaysay ciyaartoy kale oo khadka dhexe ah sida Manu Koné iyo Sander Berge ayaa sidoo kale fashilmay.
Sidaas darteed, Alonso ayaa hadda wajahaya hawl adag oo ah inuu xal u helo dhibaatooyinka kooxda isaga oo aan heli karin ciyaartoy cusub ilaa uu furmo suuqa kala iibsiga bisha Janaayo. Tababaraha reer Spain ayaa laga sugayaa inuu garoonka tababarka ku hagaajiyo difaaca Chelsea, haddii kooxdu doonayso inay xilli ciyaareedkan gaadho himilooyinkeeda.
