Dejan Kulusevski names two Tottenham players who delivered ‘unbelievable’ displays vs Chelsea
Two Tottenham players received praise from Dejan Kulusevski for their efforts during Monday night’s 4-1 Premier League loss to Chelsea.Guglielmo Vicario and Eric Dier’s efforts in Tottenham’s 4-1 loss to Chelsea were praised by Dejan Kulusevski as “unbelievable”. The Lilywhites looked impressive in the first fifteen minutes, grabbing the lead thanks to the Swede. However, things quickly went wrong for them when Cole Palmer’s penalty kick equalized the score, and Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie were sent off either side of the interval.
Mauricio Pochettino’s team bravely defended against Chelsea even though they were reduced to two men as a result of the red cards. Nicolas Jackson’s goal in the 75th minute gave them a vital second. The striker finished with a hat-trick in stoppage time, although the 4-1 final score did not accurately reflect the exciting nature of the match.

Given the opportunities Chelsea created on goal, they could have easily won if it weren’t for Vicario’s heroics in goal and Dier’s outstanding effort in his first game of the season. After the game, Kulusevski gave particular recognition to the Tottenham pair in his analysis.
Regarding the injuries sustained by Micky van de Ven and James Maddison, the attacker stated, “It will be a test for sure.” “As you can see, the new guys were outstanding, but they are truly remarkable athletes, and I sincerely hope they return very soon.
Every day, we train extremely hard, and everyone is prepared.The boys are prepared because, as you witnessed, Eric Dier arrived, made his debut, and was fantastic.”
When asked if the team had a high line, he replied, “We definitely did.” I believe we had a lot of opportunities, and Eric Dier scored a goal that was ultimately offside, but we also had fantastic opportunities with Bentancur and Sonny. Vicario scored a goal that was just amazing, and we produced three chances overall.
“We did really well and of course in the end they score the goals, but I am very proud of the team.”
Vicario also praised Tottenham’s play in the first half of the match, calling it “unbelievable”.
“Our first fifteen minutes were fantastic; we played incredible football,” the child remarked. “One of the best so far this season, although we made several poor tackles because we were too excited. We ultimately covered our costs.”
“Yes, we have to stay strong, we have to believe in each other, and we have to try to win the game,” he continued. It’s what we carried out. Not much more could be asked for. You have to sometimes put yourself in situations that are larger than yourself and try your best.”
