Dele Alli described Nicolas Jackson and Noni Madueke as ‘selfish’ after they had an on-pitch argument during Chelsea’s emphatic victory over Everton.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side blew Everton away at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, with Cole Palmer scoring four goals and a perfect hat-trick in another sublime performance.
Jackson and Blues academy graduate Alfie Gilchrist also got on the scoresheet as Chelsea’s encouraging run of form continued and Everton returned to Goodison Park empty-handed and demoralised.
But Chelsea’s superb 6-0 win was somewhat overshadowed by a bizarre argument between team-mates Jackson and Madueke after the hosts were awarded a penalty in the second half.
The pair argued over who should take the spot-kick and both refused to back down even when Chelsea captain Conor Gallagher grabbed the ball and gave it to designated penalty-taker Palmer.
Palmer slotted his spot-kick past Jordan Pickford – becoming the Premier League’s joint-top goalscorer in the process – but Jackson then refused to celebrate the goal.
Everton midfielder Dele, who has not featured this season due to personal and injury issues, was critical of both Jackson and Madueke and said they ‘showed their age’.
