Chelsea outcast Danny Drinkwater SENT OFF for lashing out at Tottenham's 16-year-old midfielder Alfie Devine in Under 23s game as his woes at the Blues continue

Danny Drinkwater's fall from grace continued on Monday night after the Chelsea outcast was sent off for kicking out at Tottenham's teenage midfielder Alfie Devine in a Under 23s game at Kingsmeadow.

The 30-year-old, who joined the Blues in a £35million deal from Leicester City in 2017, has not made a senior appearance since March 2018 and is now maintaining his fitness with the club's academy players.

In a clash against the club's fierce London rivals Spurs, Drinkwater helped the young side fight back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 before setting a poor example to the Blues youngsters in the U23s side.
