Chelsea 3-0 West Brom – Player Ratings

Chelsea relieved some of the pressure on their under fire boss Antonio Conte, with a much needed 3-0 win over Premier League basement boys West Brom at Stamford Bridge last night. Let’s see how the players rated …

Chelsea

Courtois 7

Made a crucial one-on-one save against Rondon with the score at 1-0.

Azpilicueta 7

Solid as always, and made one vital close range clearance early in the second-half.

Christensen 6

A great talent, but needs to learn when to play it smart and when to clear his lines.

Rüdiger 7

Is growing into a decent Premier League defender.

Moses 8

Never stops running, and a tidy finish for his goal.

Fàbregas 7

Not his best game, but still some classy touches and passes.

Kanté 8

Broke up so many Baggies attacks and passed well.

Zappacosta 7

Brought great energy and pace, despite playing in a unfamiliar left-wing back role.

Pedro 6

Ok, always looking for the ball, but unable to create any clear cut chances.

E Hazard 9 (MOTM)

World class. Another top class display and two brilliant finishes by the mercurial Belgian.

Giroud 8

Missed one great chance, but linked the play up really well during an encouraging display.

Substitutes

Morata 7

Got a good 30 mins into his legs, as he looks to regain match fitness.

Cahill 7

A leisurely stroll for the Chelsea captain after his late introduction.

Willian 7

Looked sharp.

West Brom

Foster 7

No chance with any of the goals and made some top class saves.

Phillips 7

Put in some excellent crosses in first-half that maybe deserved more.

Dawson 7

Worked his socks off as always.

Hegazi 6

Did well in parts, but was badly rolled by Giroud for the opener.

Evans 6

Good on the ball, although didn’t look comfortable when Hazard had the ball at his feet.

Gibbs 5

Very negative in possession, when his team needed him to try and make something happen as a wing back.

Krychowiak 5

Crowded out in midfield by the brilliant Kante.

Barry 5

Lost Hazard for the first goal and looked every one of his 36 years.

Brunt 5

Surprisingly poor set piece delivery.

Sturridge N/A

Injured after three minutes. Sadly nobody was surprised.

Substitutes Rodriguez

Burke 6

One decent run and cross early in second-half, but did little after that.

Yacob 6

Got stuck in as always, very little quality in possession however.
