Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino held a meeting with the entire squad and coaching after the on-field feud between his players over a penalty.
Chelsea thrashed Everton 6-0 and Cole Palmer bagged a hat-trick on Monday night, however the big talking point was the players arguing over a spot-kick.
With the Blues comfortably leading, Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson had to be pushed aside by captain Conor Gallagher, who handed the ball to Palmer after the penalty was awarded.

Palmer went on to score the penalty, but Pochettino reveals there was a big meeting this week about the incident.
"I made it clear after the game. We had a meeting with players and staff, involved also was the sporting directors [Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley] and I explain my feelings and the way they are going to act in the future if something like this [happens]," Pochettino said, per ESPN.
"Now we need to move on, they are clever and understood the situation.
"We were talking a lot after Monday. Wednesday, Thursday and today, still because we were practising penalties."
The Blues will be in action on Saturday against Manchester City in the FA Cip semi-finals at Wembley Stadium.
