On Sunday, London "Chelsea" suffered their first defeat of the season in the English "Premier" League.

The "Aristocrats" conceded 1:2 away to acknowledge the superiority of the champions "Arsenal".

After the match, "Chelsea" coach Xabi Alonso was unhappy with his team's defensive performance.

"My priority is always winning, and it's easier to achieve that when you don't concede goals. We need to address our defensive issues.

You have to understand that for the club, this is still the beginning of a new era, so I am pleased with my players and their dedication," said X. Alonso.

In the first three matches of the "Premier" League, "Chelsea" conceded seven goals.
