Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was delighted for his defenders and Edouard Mendy after the 2-0 win over Everton on Monday.

The Blues claimed their fourth straight clean sheet at Stamford Bridge.

"We defended with a big effort and a big intensity," said Tuchel. "Defending is a team effort and is about helping each other.

"We did that and we deserved our clean sheet so it's very pleasing.

"Of course, I'm happy for the goalkeeper and the defenders when we keep a clean sheet, but also for the whole team because every guy puts defensive effort in."
