​

Gianfranco Zola has returned to Chelsea as manager on an initial one-year deal. Zola made 312 apperances scoring 80 goals. In 2003, Zola confirmed his legendary status at Stamford Bridge as he was voted the best ever Chelsea player by the fans. Gianfranco already has experience as a manger in England with previous spells at West Ham and Watford but this is a big step up.

Perfect start to the season and hopefully a sign of things to come. We dominated from start to finish, Willian scored early on, before Diego Costa grabbed a debut goal and Eden Hazard rounded off the scoring late on.

38 shots and 68% possession but only 1 early goal from Diego Costa was needed to wrap up the points.

Pelle scored a very early goal for Saints and even though John Terry headed an equaliser early on in the second half we were left frustrated as we couldn't find a winner and continue our 100% record.

Can't complain about our Champions League draw, we should qualify top of the group comfortably.
