Xabi Alonso admitted he would love Chelsea to give him a “boring game” after their defensive woes allowed Hull to escape Stamford Bridge with a 2-2 draw on Saturday. Alonso’s side were cruising after Morgan Rogers drilled home in the seventh minute, but once again they paid the price for some sloppy defending.
