Cesc Fabregas could make the difference in the title race
In the period of the first half where Chelsea grabbed the game by the scruff of its neck, it was creative central midfield debutant Cesc Fabregas who was at the centre of everything good about Chelsea. The former Arsenal man earned himself two assists, including what will likely be one of the contenders for pass of the season, after a first time through ball to Andre Schurrle for the Blues’ second goal. His influence waned in the second half, but he is the kind of deep-lying influence that Mourinho did not have at his disposal last year.
