Newcastle United legend, Alan Shearer has named three Tottenham players that destroyed Chelsea in their Premier League clash on Saturday. Shearer also blamed Chelsea centre-back, David Luiz for Harry Kane’s goal. The Blues lost their unbeaten run to Tottenham on Saturday as they went down in a 3-1 defeat.
But it was Kane’s long-range effort that angered Chelsea supporters the most.
Luiz surprisingly moved out the way of Kane’s speculative shot instead of blocking it.
The incident was highlighted on Match of the Day on Saturday night and Shearer said he couldn’t believe it.
“David Luiz got out the way of the ball, I thought centre-backs were supposed to stop it,” he said while footage was shown of the error.
Shearer also praised three Tottenham forwards.
He added, “They dominated Chelsea for 90 minutes and ruthlessly exposed that back four.
“They battered them and it should have been six or seven with the chances they missed.
“Kane, Dele Alli and Son ran them ragged, exposed them and pulled them in positions they didn’t want to go – particularly the centre-halves.
“Tottenham were absolutely fantastic, their best performance of the season I think.”
