The Blues were convincing as they played the Everton side at home in the Premier League. The visitors could not believe what their eye is seeing as they saw themselves leaking in goals more like a lower League side.
Chelsea may have struggled at some points in the season but it took a superb performance to record such a high scoring win against the Toffees
With the crucial win as it was for Chelsea, we take a look at the three imperious lessons we learned from the weekend.
CHELSEA WAS RAMPANT
The Blues was terrific in transition as the goal came when the Frank Lampard Chelsea side wanted it. They scored goals through Mason Mount, Pedro Rodriguez, and Willian and this was a clear conclusion about the quality Chelsea has got in the final third.
Ancelotti’s Everton could not handle the Blues threat even as French form and Olivier Giroud found the net thus adding gloss to the score lines as well. This left Everton in a sorry state as the host carried the day with the three maximum points at stake.
MASON MOUNT HIGHLIGHT POTENTIALS
The young English midfielder used the Everton game to endear himself to the heart of the manager and his fans as well. This was duly evident as he opened the scoring giving his side a 1-0 lead in the contest.
He was smart and accurate as he read the goalkeeper’s position before firing in the bottom corner to open the gate for more goals for Chelsea. This he achieved in a spectacular way as his technique and vision were clear and evident for all to see in the course of the contest.
TOP FOUR ADVANTAGES
Beating Everton at the weekend was more than just a win. It proved decisive as teams like the Tottenham Hotspurs and Manchester United are both nursing the possibility of overtaking Chelsea in the race for the top four places amid Champions League football next season.
All the same, the win tightened Chelsea’s grip on the position while they stand the possible chance to leapfrog Leicester City if the foxes make a mess of their third position in the League Standings at the moment.
