    Chelsea 0-2 Southampton

    Southampton

    Southampton goalscorer Nathan Redmond: "I think it’s wrong for us to go into the game and expect anything. We did the ground work today and it sounds a cliche but we earned the right to be in the game. We have been working on a system that works for us about when we can keep the ball land when we can attack. We executed the game plan so to come away with the three points is the best feeling."

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham midfielder Lucas Moura: "What a game, it was really tough. I am happy for the win, we needed it today. I am happy for the second half, we had problems in the first half. They are really strong in the air and defensively. We had the confidence in the second half to play our way.

    "We need to believe that we want to win and I think we did that in the second half. We have to do that. The most important thing is the win. We do not have time to celebrate. We need another three points. I think it will be a tough game but we will be ready."

    Pav Dhande: Enormous win, huge three points, clean sheet and a solid performance across the pitch. THIS was a team with real fight. Grealish, again, sensational.

    Ben: So many ups and downs these last few weeks for Chelsea. West Ham, Villa, Everton, Spurs, and now a loss today. A bit of consistency would be nice.

    Micah Richards
    Former England defender on Final Score

    Chelsea have been stunned today. Southampton deserve to win the game. The way they have pressed, the way they have set up. It's not a smash and grab. They are keeping the ball well. Their confidence has grown throughout the game. They have been the better team.

    Lee Kibbey: Frank needs a good transfer window or I fear he may be living on borrowed time. Everyone knew this season would be tough, but did people really expect our home form to be this poor?
