Mathys Tel delivered a strong performance for Tottenham in their win against Chelsea, scoring his first goal of the campaign with a solo effort. According to StatMuse, Tel was the highest-rated player across the Premier League this week. De Zerbi handed Tel a start at Stamford Bridge, and the player responded with what was arguably his best display in a Tottenham shirt. Tel's performance was a significant improvement after a poor start to the season.

Tel had faced criticism earlier in the season, not only from the media and fans but also from his manager, De Zerbi, who felt he made too many poor decisions in possession. De Zerbi had an animated argument with Tel following the draw against Everton and left him out of the matchday squad for the loss against Aston Villa. However, De Zerbi believes in Tel's potential and has given him tough love to push him to improve.

Tel is determined not to rest on his laurels and believes his best performance is yet to come. He praised the team's performance against Chelsea, stating that Spurs have the quality to achieve something special. Tel emphasized the need to continue working hard to improve, saying "I need to work, work, work, work and keep going." De Zerbi also highlighted Tel's potential, stating that he believes in Tel more than Tel believes in himself.
