Chelsea 2-0 Bournemouth: Hits and Flops

Chelsea FC v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League
Chelsea found a way through comfortably in the end

#3 Best: Joshua King

Chelsea FC v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League
King played a good hand in Bournemouth's attacking contribution

The Cherries held a compact back-line and pressed hard on Chelsea in fits and starts. King was fantastic from that point of view, as he stole the ball from the blue shirts who were napping in possession. He also created openings for Fraser and Wilson upfront by interchanging quick passes, playing it in their path and trying to split the defence.

A few of his touches, flicks and passes were a treat to the eye. Although he had no real chance in front of goal, the forward never stopped running. He offered defensive cover and held the ball up safely.

Technically, Joshua King was absolutely magnificent.
