Player ratings as the Blues win at a canter.

Chelsea went two points clear at the top of the the Premier League after a 2-0 victory over Newcastle at Stamford Bridge.

Oscar and Diego Costa secured a comfortable victory despite the Blues looking under par for most of the match.

The win sees them open up a gap at the top of the table after Manchester City only manage a 1-1 draw with Everton and drop two points at Goodison Park.

Here’s how the Chelsea players fared in their easy win:

Petr Cech – 8

A late change saw Cech come in for an injured Courtois but showed his expected class with a number of good stops.

Branislav Ivanovic – 6

Lacked a bit of his usual quality on the ball but his low cross found Oscar for the opener and marshalled his flank well.
