Bournemouth 4 – Chelsea 0 Chelsea were battered by Bournemouth in the Premier League on Wednesday. The Blues lost 4-0 at the Vitality Stadium as Chelsea’s top four hopes took a major blow. In fairness to Chelsea, they started the Bournemouth match brightly. However Maurizio Sarri’s men collapsed in the second half once Josh King opened. David Brooks doubled Bournemouth’s lead in the 63rd minute. King completed a brace in the 74th, before Charlie Daniels capped the win with a late fourth. How Bournemouth neutralised Chelsea’s Jorginho In recent weeks much has been made of Jorginho’s impact at Chelsea this season. Many believe that Jorginho has failed to improved the Blues. For the record, the Italian has yet to register an assist in the league, while his only goal came from the penalty spot. While Sarri continues to deploy Jorginho in the enforcer role, N’Golo Kane operates in a more wide-right position. After the Chelsea match, Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe revealed how the Che...

Chelsea embarrassed by Bournemouth Chelsea fans have started to turn on boss Maurizio Sarri following their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Bournemouth on Wednesday night. Despite being considered strong title contenders early on in the season, the Blues haven’t exactly been in fine form over the past month or so. Earlier in the month, Chelsea were unable to beat Southampton who have been struggling all season. They then lost to Tottenham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup two-leg clash. A hard fought win against Newcastle papered over the cracks but they were then beaten 2-0 by Arsenal. They then scraped through to the next round of the Carabao Cup, beating Tottenham on penalties. Though, their worst performance of the month and potentially the worst of the season came against Bournemouth on Wednesday.
