#2 West Brom play the 'Chelsea way'

Chelsea have been playing some tremendous football this season but if you look back a year from today, they were parking the bus and trying to grind out results.

Jose Mourinho was not able to do anything right and was doing nothing but frustrate the opponents. Tony Pulis took a leaf off Jose's books and made his team play the same way today.

Unfortunately for him, his team made that one bad error and Diego Costa punished them. The defenders managed to keep the Spaniard and Hazard quiet throughout the game while Pedro was not even allowed to get close to the ball today.
