Bournemouth targeted Chelsea’s ‘weakness’ Gary Cahill in shock 3-0 win over Antonio Conte’s side, reveals Callum Wilson
The Cherries striker opened the scoring in the stunning victory for Eddie Howe's men at Stamford Bridge
BOURNEMOUTH striker Callum Wilson has sensationally revealed the club targeted Chelsea centre-back Gary Cahill in their shock 3-0 win.
The 25-year-old opened the scoring at Stamford Bridge, as the Cherries ran riot, netting three times during the space of 16 second half minutes.
Cahill was exploited down the right-hand side of the Blues' three-man defence, with the ex-Bolton defender caught out by through ball for the opening two goals.
While he failed to mark Nathan Ake for the third strike as the Dutch international tapped home from close range against his former side.
And Wilson has claimed Eddie Howe's men specifically targeted a certain area of the Chelsea back-line, with their game plan proving highly effective.
He told BBC 5 Live: "We’ve been working hard on this formation and today we’ve put everything right and come up with a fantastic performance tonight.
"We knew Chelsea had weaknesses with their back line so we targeted one side.
"Everybody to a man put in a good shift tonight.
BLAME GAME Antonio Conte says he’s not to blame for Chelsea’s shortcomings despite worst home defeat in two years against Bournemouth
We’re unbeaten in six and want to carry that on."
The result leaves Bournemouth in tenth spot, while the defeat for Chelsea leaves them in fourth - level on points with third-placed Liverpool.
