HT: Vitesse 0-2 Chelsea

A pair of goals courtesy of Salah and Fabregas see us in firm command at the break. The hosts had much of the ball in that half, but scarcely anything of consequence in the final third, while we, despite perhaps not having as much of it as we'd have liked, find ourselves two to the good.

Vitesse grab a late consolation goal in the 89th minute.

FT: Vitesse 1-3 Chelsea

Goals from Salah, Fabregas and Matic see us to a comfortable win in a match we rarely, invariably much to José Mourinho's dissatisfaction, were challenged in.

by Shed Thu Jul 31, 2014 2:16 am

My biggest fear used to be that Mourinho was going to try to pry him off of us for Real Madrid.

Now he'll be playing for us at last with Mourinho himself at the helm Proud
