Alonso believes our performance against Tottenham on Sunday showed Chelsea would fight for the title this season.

“There was a lot of talking during the week, everybody, and I think we showed we are together,” Alonso said.

“We worked so hard this week and we 100 per cent deserved the win. We showed we are going to fight again for the title this year.”
