Chelsea bounced back from recent disappointments to comfortably beat Stoke City at Stamford Bridge 3-0.
With that win, Blues are the league leaders again for the time being and will be hoping that Liverpool drop points today against the Hammers.
Mourinho rested his star players Hazard and Oscar with the Champions league second leg coming up. However the surprise decision was to start wasteful Fernando Torres again.

Nevertheless, the make shift attacking midfield did the job for Mourinho, especially his two wide players Salah and Willian were in blistering form and both were on the scoresheet as well.
Other than that, Chelsea’s central midfield were in form, mainly winter signing Nemanja Matic who completely dominated the midfield battle being strong defensively and provided perfect passes as well.
Lampard scored his 250th league goal and was given standing ovation after getting substituted for David Luiz to come on.
