A
side
starting
the
day
bottom
of
the
league
has
not
beaten
the
team
at
the
top
since
February
2011,
and
Norwich
never
looked
likely
to
halt
that
run
at
Stamford
Bridge
as
Thomas
Tuchel’s
side
cruised
to
their
biggest
win
of
the
season
with
ease.

Mount
and
Callum
Hudson-Odoi
got
things
started
with
their
first
league
goals
of
the
campaign,
with
Ben
Chilwell
scoring
for
a
fourth
successive
top-flight
match
after
fellow
wing-back
Reece
James
got
in
on
the
act.

Max
Aarons’ own
goal
and
Ben
Gibson’s
red
card
made
life
even
more
miserable
for
Norwich,
with
Mount
doubling
his
tally
from
the
spot
before
rounding
off
his
hat-trick
in
stoppage
time.

It
took
Chelsea
just
eight
minutes
to
take
the
lead,
as
Mount
allowed
Jorginho’s
lay-off
to
run
across
him
before
planting
a
firm
strike
into
the
bottom-left
corner.

Mateo
Kovacic’s
weighted
throughball
teed
up
Hudson-Odoi
for
a
cool
finish
across
Tim
Krul
10
minutes
later,
with
Mount
turning
provider
for
Chelsea’s
third,
sliding
a
perfect
ball
through
to
James,
who
chipped
in
with
aplomb.

After
making
an
error
that
allowed
Milot
Rashica
to
test
Edouard
Mendy,
Chilwell
quickly
atoned
at
the
other
end,
drilling
in
a
low
finish
to
continue
his
brilliant
scoring
form.

Aarons’ deflection
on
Hudson-Odoi’s
cross-shot
did
for
Krul,
who
spilled
over
his
own
line,
before
Gibson
–
only
10
minutes
after
he
had
first
been
cautioned
–
dived
in
late
on
James.

Mathias
Normann’s
handball
handed
Chelsea
a
spot-kick
and,
though
Krul
initially
saved
Mount’s
effort,
the
goalkeeper
had
come
off
his
line,
and
Norwich’s
goalkeeper
was
unable
to
keep
out
the
second
attempt.

There
was
time
for
one
more,
Ruben
Loftus-Cheek
beating
the
offside
trap
and
cutting
back
for
Mount
to
slot
in
his
third.
