Former Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has felt the wrath of Chelsea fans, as he was slammed by the Blues fans last night after calling Marcos Alonso “inexperienced” while being on Monday Night Football.
While discussing how to exploit Chelsea’s weaknesses on Sky Sports last night, Pardew described Alonso as inexperienced.
He said: “Obviously, this [Alonso] is an inexperienced player who has had an unbelievable season. I don’t think anybody would have assumed he could have done that role [LWB] as well as he has.”
Chelsea fans descended heavily on the sacked Palace boss.
