๐ฃ๏ธ Calum McFarlane on Chelseaโs 2-1 win over @Tottenhm Hotspur [H] in the Premier League:
๐ค โI thought the atmosphere was exceptional tonight. I thought you could feel the energy.
โI thought it was exceptional at Wembley as well, and I think it always helps the team when we get that positive energy and it drives us on to do more.
โThere were lads out there tonight that were dead on their feet, but the crowd, the enthusiasm and the drive from the crowd, drives them on to just push a little bit extra, and I thought that was clear tonight.
โIt was good to get the win.
โIt was obvious from minute one that we didnโt at times have the energy and the intensity that we needed. We had it in patches.
โIt was always going to be tough with the turnaround from the cup final. With the physical and psychological load that put on us, we knew that was going to be the case.
โI thought we played some really nice stuff in the first half, thought we deserved the two-goal lead when we got it, and then it was about when Spurs obviously showed more energy.
โThey had more time to prepare for the game, more rest. You could tell that was coming and we just needed to dig in for the result like I thought we did well at the end.โ

@Madrid_Atletico want to sign Marc Cucurella from Chelsea this summer.
The left-back is of long-term interest to Mathieu Alemany, who wanted him at @Barcelonaen and is now the sporting director at Atletico.
Barca retain an interest in the player too but plan to make the loan deal of Joao Cancelo from @Hilal_Al a permanent switch.
Cucurellaโs contract with the Blues expires in June 2028.
