An awful error from Edouard Mendy allowed Brenden Aaronson to open the scoring in the 33rd minute and in-form Spanish forward Rodrigo made it four in three games this season when he headed home Jack Harrison’s excellent free-kick delivery four minutes later.

Raheem Sterling missed a good first-minute chance for Thomas Tuchel’s visitors and had a goal ruled out for offside when the game was still 0-0,

but Chelsea had more or less vanished as an attacking force by the time Rodrigo and Harrison reversed roles in the 69th minute for the latter to finish from close range.

Tuchel is winless in the past two, yet to see any of his forward players find the net and saw Chelsea’s misery completed when Kalidou Koulibaly collected a second yellow card fouling substitute Joe Gelhardt.

Sterling playing on the left of the front three with Kai Havertz through the middle gave Chelsea’s front three a more threatening look, but their afternoon fell apart after Mendy’s moment to forget.
