LW) Eden Hazard, 5
Constantly on the ball and won a few fouls, but this is exactly the type of game he has to influence if he wants to be considered the best player in the league.
RW) Juan Cuadrado, 6
A solid if unspectacular debut from the Colombian, showing snatches of his ability with some dribbles.
ST) Loic Remy, 4
Was dealt with well by Phil Jagielka and John Stones, and did little to excite.
SUB) Cesc Fabregas, 8
Made a noticeable difference when he came on. It says a lot that he could be the best player in what is a brilliant Chelsea team.
SUB) Didier Drogba, 4
Similarly to Remy, Stones and Jagielka had little trouble with the Blues legend.
SUB) Gary Cahill, 6
Didn’t have enough time to make an impact.
