Chelsea got back to winning ways with an
emphatic victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday
after hitting three past Crystal Palace. With this
3-0 win, Chealsea recorded their biggest win of
the season after Oscar, Willian and Diego Costa
delivered the goods with an all round impressive
team performance over their London Neighbours.
The resurgence of John Obi Mikel, preferred to
Nemanja Matic in central midfield by Hiddink
must be appreciated by all as the interim
manager declared him the 'ideal' player to bring
balance to Chelsea.
Mikel showed power and authority showing his
dominance in key battles in Chelsea's midfield
area. Crystal Palace without several of its best
attacking players, found it difficult to create clear
chances and have not scored in three games
since Boxing Day.
They worked into some promising situations and
yet lacked quality on the final pass. Zaha flashed
one effort wide in the opening minutes, but
Thibaut Courtois was not extended until he
denied the same player with nearly an hour gone.
Within seconds of the save, Chelsea extended the
lead. With this victory,Chelsea have moved out of
the relegation zone.
