Chelsea News: Cesar Azpilicueta reportedly clashed with Reece James after West Brom loss
According to news from Football.london, Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta gave Reece James a hearing after the West Brom loss. It has been said that Azpilicueta was involved in a bust-up with James as the Blues searched for answers to their 2-5 loss.
As Thomas Tuchel asked his charges to remain calm after their first defeat, thing somewhat got out of hand as players reportedly clashed against each other. James was somewhat at fault for the second goal conceded by Chelsea and later struggled to shake it off.
The captain gave James a lowdown on his mistakes throughout the game as he sprayed a lot of stray passes. However, it has been said that the pair have resolved this situation away from the camp and even trained together on Sunday.
However, this was not the only bust-up on the side, with Rudiger and Kepa also involved in a training ground tussle. Things had to be calmed down by everyone as Rudiger was taken off training a few minutes earlier.

It’s quite normal for these things to happen, especially after a loss. Players are emotional characters and such a loss would play on anyone’s mind. However, it is important to not let it escalate and use that anger in a constructive way.
