Moses Shines, Mikel Continues Winston Bogarde Role As Chelsea Humiliate Man Utd
Published: October 23, 2016
Jose Mourinho suffered his heaviest defeat as a Premier League manager with Manchester United thrashed 4-0 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday evening.
The Blues started with a bang, taking the lead after thirty seconds courtesy of Pedro Rodriguez, who finished clinically after Smalling was caught ball watching.
England international Cahill made it 2-0 in the 21st minute, volleying home after Hazard had swung in a corner from the right.
In the second half, Eden Hazard scored with Nemanja Matic providing the assist for the goal, before Kante added more gloss to the scoreline with a beautiful goal in the 70th minute.
On his eighth appearance of the season in the Premier League, Moses was a livewire on the pitch, especially in the first half, with his crosses and excellent defending despite being an offensive player.
Super Eagles skipper John Obi Mikel remains out of favour as he didn’t make Chelsea’s matchday squad for the umpteenth time despite being fit and training with the first team.
Chelsea have climbed to fourth place on the table but only one point separate Antonio Conte’s side from Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool while Manchester United have slipped six points off the pace.
