"Since I arrived, they keep getting better and better." — Potter hails two Chelsea stars after United draw.

 Potter has hailed two Chelsea stars who were crucial to our 1-1 draw against United on Saturday evening.

The Blues were back in Premier League action again after a goalless draw at Gtech Community stadium against Brentford and were looking to secure all three points against the Red Devils. 

A foul on Armando Broja saw a penalty awarded to the Blues which Jorginho converted to secure the opener for the Blues. Late into stoppage time, Casemiro secured the equalizer for the Devils and ended what would have been a win for Chelsea. 

Before the twist of events before the final results, two Chelsea players had been impressive and have been lauded by head coach, Graham Potter. Those players are Kepa Arrizabalaga and Trevoh Chalobah. 

Speaking in his post match briefing, per Football.London, Potter said of Kepa:

“He contributed again. I think as a team, we defended quite well and gave everything – the running power was there. The area we can do better is when we have the ball and attack ourselves. But at the same time, we were playing against an opponent in a good place. 

"So I’m pleased for Kepa that he can help us again; not so many massive chances but still he had a good game.”

Speaking of Trevoh Chalobah, he said: 

“I thought he was fantastic, got better and better, grew into the game. He is playing such a lot as well. It’s not easy with [Marcus] Rashford making runs in behind constantly, he’s got incredible pace. So I thought Trevoh did really well.”

Antonio Conte tells Tottenham to hijack deal for Chelsea target.

 Antonio Conte has told Tottenham to sign the Bayer Leverkusen star. Per Tuttomercatoweb, Antonio Conte has asked Tottenham to sign Bayer Leverkusen defender, Piero Hincapie who is also a Chelsea target.  Hincapie, 20, featured in three of Ecuador's opening games in the world cup and his impressive performance for both club and country has attracted interest from both London clubs.  Chelsea are said to be in the market for a left-sided central defender and per reports, have opened talks with the likes of Josko Gvardiol and AS Monaco's Benoit Bardiashile, but Hincapie is also a player of interest.  The Blues could now face stiff competition from Tottenham as Spurs boss Conte has identified Hincapie as a player who would suit his style of play.
