Match report: Chelsea 3 Leicester City 0

A second consecutive victory, and another clean sheet, made it a welcome return to Premier League action as the Blues ran out comfortable 3-0 winners against Leicester City at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.

It was an impressive, dominant Chelsea display from start to finish and the winning margin could easily have been more significant.
Diego Costa and Eden Hazard scored first-half goals to put us in the ascendancy and Victor Moses, excellent throughout, added a third late in the game.

David Luiz hit the woodwork with a brilliant free-kick and midfield partners N'Golo Kante and Nemanja Matic both went close after the break.
There was just one change to the side which won at Hull a fortnight ago with Pedro coming in for Willian, who is currently away on compassionate leave. Our players wore black armbands in honour of the Brazilian’s mother who sadly passed away earlier this week.

Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz and Gary Cahill made up a three-man defence and there was a home debut for Marcos Alonso at left-wing-back. Kante, playing against his former club for the first time, and Matic, were paired together in midfield.
John Terry, available for the first time since picking up an injury in our away game at Swansea, was named among the substitutes on a youthful bench.

Branislav Ivanovic, John Mikel Obi and Cesc Fabregas were unavailable due to minor muscle injuries, the first two picked up on international duty, while Oscar flew back to Brazil due to a serious family illness.

It took just six minutes for the Blues to open the scoring and it was no surprise in-form Diego Costa was the man who gave us the lead.
The striker had linked up well with Pedro and Victor Moses down the right-hand side, with the Nigerian, operating as a right wing-back, eventually forcing a corner. When Eden Hazard’s delivery was flicked on at the near post by Alonso, Diego Costa stole in unmarked to fire a left-footed drive beyond Kasper Schmeichel.

It was his seventh goal of the campaign and gave Conte’s men the perfect start.
The Blues sprung into life in an attacking sense after the goal with Alonso and Hazard in particular linking up well on the left. The Belgian saw a dangerous cross cut out by Wes Morgan before Alonso supplied another teasing delivery, seeking out Moses, which was diverted behind.

Kante then picked out Hazard with a scooped pass over the top of the Leicester defence but the winger, on the move, was unable to wrap his foot around the ball and sent his volley up and into the arms of Schmeichel.
As the central figure in the back three David Luiz was seeing a lot of the ball and using it intelligently, while wing-backs Alonso and Moses were asking questions of Leicester full-backs Luis Hernandez and Christian Fuchs.

Former Chelsea defender Robert Huth became the first player to be shown a yellow card when he clattered Hazard from behind on the edge of the box, and from the resulting free-kick David Luiz crashed a brilliant effort against the top of the post with Schmeichel well beaten.

As the half-hour mark ticked by it had been all Chelsea, and 12 minutes before half-time Hazard scored a deserved second.

Matic picked up possession on the halfway line and attempted to thread the ball through to Hazard, but as Pedro and a couple of Leicester defenders also challenged for possession, the Spaniard, who had tumbled to the ground, smartly volleyed the ball into his team-mates’ path. Hazard still had work to do but he made it look easy, taking the ball around Schmeichel and rolling it into the empty net for his third goal of the season.

Hazard’s celebration mirrored that of Diego Costa, with both players holding their fingers aloft in a way which paid tribute to Willian.
Having already hit the woodwork with one free-kick David Luiz then went close with another, this time from further out, the Brazilian’s dipping effort forcing Schmeichel into an uncomfortable punched clearance.

Within seconds of the start of the second half we were appealing for a penalty and looked to have a legitimate claim. A lofted ball out from the back found Pedro, who brought it down brilliantly and then saw his shot appear to strike the arm of Fuchs. Andre Marriner, however, disagreed and signalled for play to continue.

Leicester were then appealing for a penalty of their own when Moses and Jeffrey Schlupp tangled in the Chelsea box but again the referee saw nothing in it.

Ten minutes into the second half a brilliant break almost led to a third Chelsea goal after Hazard had done well to flick on a Pedro clearance. Kante was first on to the loose ball and advanced into the Leicester half before expertly picking out the excellent run of Moses, who saw his first-time strike saved by Schmeichel.

It was developing into a free-flowing contest and the visitors were almost handed a route back into the game when Marc Albrighton’s cross was diverted against the foot of the post by David Luiz.
Nathaniel Chalobah was introduced 23 minutes from time and slotted into midfield alongside Matic and Kante in a bid to add more defensive steel, Pedro the player making way.

Kante then passed up a glorious opportunity to make it 3-0 when his close-range effort was deflected behind by Morgan.
With 11 minutes remaining, though, the impressive Moses capped a superb display by making it 3-0, exchanging passes with Chalobah and calmly beating Schmeichel with a cool finish.

Ola Aina was handed his Premier League debut for the final 10 minutes when he replaced Moses while Ruben Loftus-Cheek came on for Hazard.

Overall, it was a positive day for the Blues with many reasons to be optimistic and we now look forward to another home game next Sunday, the visit of Manchester United.

Nihilist:
My friend, you are one duracell battery short of a full remote.

How can I be negative when keep saying that this squad is good enough to challenge for the title....when you asserted the squad is so unbalanced that a top 4 place would be a miracle?

Who has had enough of 'my negativity'?

I was the only one posting here on the game until nateevs quoted me. Nobody is quoting you despite posting 10 million articles so you're desperate to attach yourself to a convo by force.

You ain't worth sheet bro. I could staple 50 bucks to your mushroom shape ogo, and you still wouldn't be worth 50 naira.

Be gone clown!

With that statement above, I can only conclude that you are an attention seeking narcissist who thinks one does things just to be noticed.
I am done for now.. I will address this later.

Tval:
Omo . We are winning, we should be celebrating not fighting.

I really tire for the guy.. Conte has just converted azpi to a center back and is now benching John Terry. And some1 is telling me our improvement is not down to the coach. Who is it down to??. The coach has made tough calls and is making something out of nothing and someone is putting it down to luck.

That's irritating..

Nihilist:
Mate I advice you to shut dafuck up and stick to posting articles if you don't understand the conversation.

You were the same ediot that was claiming the squad was 'unbalanced' when I was arguing that these boys were good enough for a top 4 finish.

Just like Nateevs was saying that we dont have the players for a 343 only 3 weeks ago, again when I was insisting that this squad is good enough to challenge for the title.

You better back off. This is a convo between your ogas. Afterall, I didn't start it, they did.. If nateevs and raumdeuter wanted to hear your opinion, they would have quoted you first.

You are a very big fool!! Everyone has had just about enough of your useless moanings!!!
Yes I complained about the imbalance of the team and I still but the coach is doing the best to make something out of the team, and we fully appreciate that..
What are you seeing that others can't?? Y the constant negativity??
I really wouldn't want to engage in an e-fight or banter with you so just better just be reasonable. You better Stop this childish trolling of yours and start acting your age.

Nihilist is beginning to think and sound like that troll on Manchester United's thread that doesn't want to see/say anything good about the coach/players. Dayo and nateevs, it'll be best to just ignore him if you can't convince him.

The Roman Empire in deep waters.

Chelsea's owner, Roman Abrahmovic has lost 2.7 billion dollars in the last three quarters of the fiscal year due to the drop in oil prices. This has led to him listing most of his oil assets in Russia, America and the Caribbean gulf for sale.
Reports say this is to focus on his steel and aluminum businessess coupled with his other real estate ventures.
The Russian oligarch once owned the largest yatch in the world, but it is understood that he has listed the yatch for sale in the region of $400 million.

Sources say, he is also considering going into the ammunition industry, of recent the industry has risen vastly and the marginal profit in the market is mouth watering, he has approached the government in his native home to get the necessary approvements to begin the manufacture and production of arms and ammunition.

This has put question marks as to if he will indeed continue to bankroll, his beloved asset in London, Chelsea football club. Since 2003, his sub company fordstam has given interest free loan in the region of 1 billion pounds.
With her heavy hits to his pockets, One can only wonder if he will still finance the heavy projects soon to be commenced by the club.

Ex-Roma director of sport Walter Sabatini is being called to Chelsea by Antonio Conte, according to the Corriere dello Sport.

The chain-smoking transfer guru resigned from his post at Roma last week after months of hinting he was ready to walk away.

He disagreed with Giallorossi President James Pallotta on strategy and became increasingly frustrated at having to sell top players like Erik Lamela.
Today’s edition of the Corriere dello Sport newspaper suggests Sabatini is close to taking on a new job in London with Chelsea.
Conte is said to be pushing hard for Sabatini to join him at Stamford Bridge and transform the way they do business.
Chelsea got a taste of how tough Sabatini can be this summer when trying and failing to negotiate for Radja Nainggolan.

Defensive Saviour
For All His Talents, Kurt Zouma Isn't Chelsea's Defensive Saviour

Kurt Zouma doesn't need pressure at Chelsea; he needs games and time. Yet the days are being counted down until he reaches full fitness and waltzes back into Antonio Conte's side to change their fortunes for good.

With Zouma back in blue, no longer will the goals flow in at the wrong end; defensive errors will be extinct. When the Frenchman returns, Chelsea will be a different team altogether. With Zouma at the heart of defence, Chelsea are going to be unstoppable.

If only it were that simple for Conte and Chelsea. It isn't. The club's problems run much deeper than one promising centre-back being sidelined; the Blues' problems are deep-rooted, and the expectation that Zouma is going to change much of that is alarmingly skewed.
Zouma is just 21 years old. He has played less than 40 Premier League games for Chelsea and has two senior international caps to his name with France. The club's future he may well be; their saviour he ain't.
Yet to complete a full 38-game season in Chelsea colours, Zouma remains a raw talent. There's no doubting that his rapid rise has been a reason for Blues fans to feel positive, although there is a long way to go before he can be commanding the sort of profile that, say, John Terry has at Stamford Bridge.

Indeed, it's mention of Terry that is rather apt here. When we consider what he offered in his peak years to the club, it's that exact quality that is missing from Chelsea now that he has been injured in recent weeks. The Blues have lacked direction, a leader on the pitch to piece Conte's game plan together.

It was no coincidence we saw Chelsea suffer their two worst performances and results under Conte when Terry was missing against Liverpool and Arsenal in September.
In truth, given the performance of both sides on those occasions, Chelsea would have lost those games with or without their talisman. They were second best, beaten by teams who were better equipped and prepared. The question, however, is whether those defeats would have been so damning to their cause were Terry on duty.

Chelsea were completely out of sorts; with their backs to the wall and under pressure, heads were lost, and there was little resembling anything like organisation. For a manager with Conte's reputation and beliefs, it was painful watching him from the sidelines as his team crumbled.
Rarely has that happened with Terry in the team, especially when he was in his prime years. We saw in the manner of how Chelsea's power was eroded last term that the 35-year-old's influence is waning with it, but even still, there isn't another player like him who has such influence from front to back at Stamford Bridge.

A failure to come close to replacing that is what has held Chelsea back in this prolonged transition the club continues to endure. It certainly hasn't been an absence of young players being injured.

A big part of this struggle to replace Terry, though, has been the fact that in order to unearth a replacement for such a significant character and presence, the former England captain has to leave Chelsea. And that's been unfathomable.

Zouma's not at the same level as senior players such as John Terry
It's only by not having Terry around that a new leader is going to emerge. Stamford Bridge isn't big enough for two of them.

The hope is that Zouma will compete for such status at some point in his career, but to expect something of him on that level now is all wrong. And when we talk about him being the missing link for Conte at the back, it's that sort of presence he will have to display.

Terry's been the benchmark for Chelsea defenders ever since Roman Abramovich arrived at the club in 2003. It's players like him that are missed, even if he is 35.

Besides, we still don't know Zouma's condition after picking up a serious knee injury in early February. There was a time when a ruptured knee ligament would end a player's career, so the 21-year-old still has it all to do in his attempts to recover fully.

Even when fit and showing the potential that has fed this frenzy around his return to fitness, Zouma's effect on Chelsea was never at the level that suggests he will re-enter the fray and transform the team's fortunes.

For instance, looking at the previous campaign right up to Chelsea's last outing without Zouma—a 2-0 victory away to Hull City ahead of the international break—there's not much to work with. We can point to factors where his presence made Chelsea stronger; equally, there were weaknesses. There was nothing that makes a strong argument for his instant inclusion.

Chelsea with Kurt Zouma (since August 2015)
Played 23
Goals against 27
Clean sheets 8
Won 7
Draw 8
Lost 8
Points tally 29
Soccerbase (Premier League games only)

Conveniently, Chelsea's games pre- and post-Zouma's injury total almost the same number. Before February 2016, Zouma played 23 times in the Premier League, and with the couple of games he missed before then and the total since, the Blues have played 22 times without him.

The statistics tell a story that is too close to call when we're determining just how effective he was or will be when he is eventually back in Conte's side.
With Zouma, Chelsea conceded 27 goals in 23 games; without the Frenchman, the Blues conceded 35 in 22. So when he featured, they shipped an average of 1.17 goals per game, and without him, they conceded 1.59 on average.

Either way, for a side that went through the 2014/15 season with an average of 0.82 goals against for the entire campaign, it doesn't make for positive reading. In fact, if we wanted to be overly critical, we could suggest that the more game time Zouma had, the statistics suggest Chelsea were weaker given that he played more in 2015/16 than he did a year earlier.
Of course, we know Chelsea's problems weren't just with the defence last season. They were team-wide, which is why the average without Zouma doesn't really tell us that much, either—especially as there isn't a sudden spike.

Here's the thing: Chelsea picked up just 29 points with the Frenchman in the team last season. Without him present in matches from August 2015 through to October 2016, the Blues have 34 points from their 22 games.

So how do we read it? Do Chelsea want to concede more goals and win more points without Zouma? Or do they want a marginally tighter defence, but pick up less points in the process?
There isn't a correct answer as the debate isn't as black and white as those questions make out. There will have been plenty of factors that render those statistics pertinent by opinion only. We can point to Diego Costa's form being better since Zouma's injury, which has won Chelsea more points; equally, a spate of defensive injuries last season made them weaker at the back, hence more goals being conceded.

The point in it all is that with or without Zouma, Chelsea have endured big problems. It hasn't been about Gary Cahill or Branislav Ivanovic; we've watched a team take a serious nose dive through factors outside of their control.

Looking to Zouma as the answer to Conte suddenly finding a formula to cure the Blues of their ills is folly in the extreme. All it serves is to put more pressure on a player who doesn't need it.
Zouma needs to play games, regain his form and confidence. Only then can we start looking to him being Chelsea's defensive rock.

Let's not kill him.
