Rudiger: Chelsea players should be ashamed of Bournemouth display

The Blues suffered their worst league defeat in 23 years against the Cherries and the defender places the blame with the players, not the manager

Antonio Rudiger has said Chelsea should be ashamed of their performance against Bournemouth on Wednesday night.

The Blues lost 4-0 on the south coast, causing manager Maurizio Sarri to lock his players in the dressing room for 45 minutes after the game, as he searched for answers to Chelsea’s subpar showing.

While Rudiger did not offer an explanation as to what happened on Wednesday, he did claim the performance - which ended in Sarri's side suffering the club's worst league defeat for 23 years - was unacceptable.
