Rogers hails Alonso for ‘exciting’ Chelsea goal spree
The Blues have scored 16 goals in Xabi Alonso's first five matches in all competitions, showcasing their attacking talent.
Morgan Rogers, a recent addition to Chelsea from Aston Villa, praised Xabi Alonso's impact on the team following Chelsea's 6-3 victory over Leeds in the League Cup. The match extended Chelsea's impressive start to the season with a flurry of goals. Alonso, who took charge at Stamford Bridge during the close season, has overseen a remarkable sequence of goals since joining the Blues.
An extended display of attacking prowess was demonstrated as Palmer, Neto, and Rogers were sent on at half-time and immediately wreaked havoc in Leeds' defense. Rogers, who has been on pace to provide three assists, highlighted the enjoyment of playing alongside high-level talent and expressed his appreciation for Alonso's influence.
Palmer, a close friend of Rogers from their time in Manchester City's academy, echoed the sentiment, relishing the new attacking environment. Alonso, acknowledging the risk of making nine changes in a crucial competition, admitted the team was ready to make an impact and is satisfied with the result.
