Slick Welbeck sets seal on Chelsea's fifth straight loss

The evening kicked off with the Premier League’s three “B-teams” - Brentford, Bournemouth and Brighton - behind Chelsea in the table. Following another grim chapter in the Liam Rosenior saga, his name taken in vain by angry away fans, Chelsea now look up at Brighton.

Each of those clubs provide an example of responsible stewardship. models Chelsea’s brains trust have struggled to upscale. The project has spent billions, and taken on a raft of former Brighton employees, Rosenior included, but has failed to emulate the culture and strategy. Chelsea have beaten only Port Vale in eight matches and not scored in the other seven.

Meanwhile, Brighton’s return to the European football enjoyed under Roberto De Zerbi is fully on the cards. Fabian Hürzeler has revived his team, and has still never been defeated by an opposing English manager. Goals by Ferdi Karioglu and Jack Hinshelwood did the damage to Chelsea, and it could have been far more by the time Danny Welbeck scored the third to complete as convincing a win as it get.
