Chelsea did not take long to open the scoring as Maatsen put the finishing touches on a well-crafted move by new recruit Nicholas Jackson as the former Villarreal player made his way through the crowd to release the ball at the perfect time to put it on a platter for the 21-year-old Dutchman.

The Dutch forward doubled Chelsea’s advantage before the interval as he finished off a neat exchange just outside the area in the 42nd minute of the game to give the Blues some breathing room.

Chelsea had to wait till deep in the second period for their third goal as Gallagher found the back of the net in the 80th minute of the game after English international Raheem Sterling danced around the defence before laying it off for the former Crystal Palace player to slot it home from right outside the box with a controlled shot.

Nkunku, the most talked about signing of the Blues in recent times, found the back of the net after rounding the keeper to put the London side four goals to the good.

English full back Chilwell put the finishing touches on an easy win for Pochhettino and Co. as he scored deep in the second period extra time to pick up a crushing win.

“It is good to have all these players and the names we have. We can see, we can touch, we can feel if they can be an important player for Chelsea,” Pochettino said after the win.
