Premier League score: Chelsea 3-0 Luton Town; post match ratings and reactions following the game

THREE POINTS WINNER AT THE BRIDGE DINNER

Chelsea didn’t get off to the best start, but came into action after a few minutes and created some excellent chances, but were unable to convert them when Raheem Sterling fired straight at the goalkeeper from ten yards after an effort on goal. mouth. and Enzo Fernández aimed his shot over the bar.

But Sterling then took matters into his own hands, putting on a brilliant individual run, losing three or four defenders and then finishing capably with his left foot into the far bottom corner. We haven’t seen many of these goals since Eden Hazard’s departure.

Unfortunately, Chelsea subsequently failed to capitalize on that breakthrough and failed to generate any shots in the final half hour of the first half. Luton rarely threatened, but with just one goal they felt anything but comfortable. Chelsea also made a reasonably good start to the second half, with Chilwell squandering a brilliant opportunity by opting to make the extra pass rather than shoot when eight yards wide. Further chances were squandered in quick succession by Sterling and Jackson as frustration levels began to mount.

Luton then gave a frightening reminder how close the score still was despite Chelsea’s dominance, creating a huge chance out of practically nothing. Sánchez manages to take the shot and clear it, with Gusto’s desperate dive that takes the sting out of the shot but also deflects it.

Chilwell and Sterling then squandered a few more chances before Sterling finally completed a beautiful pass in the 68th minute. Sterling then continued to be a supplier for a few minutes, with Jackson touching home to secure the points.

Three points, to the Bridge!

Carefree.

Pochettino remains faithful to the hybrid three-man defense/four-man guard system

Chelsea prepare to announce double transfer as Mauricio Pochettino continues to spend £350m

Chelsea spent over £300m in the summer transfer window after spending £600m on signings last season

Chelsea are set to confirm two transfers ahead of their next Premier League clash against Luton Town on Friday night. The Blues have already spent over £300m this summer, taking their total signing spend to over £900m in the past 12 months.

The Blues have already signed eight signings, including several young players, and Mauricio Pochettino are still waiting for at least a few more signings before the window closes, football.london reveal. Chelsea have picked up just one point from their opening two Premier League games but are hoping for drastic improvements from last season.

Several departures are still expected in the final stages of the transfer window, including Romelu Lukaku and Callum Hudson-Odoi, who are looking to leave Stamford Bridge on permanent contracts. The future of Trevoh Chalobah and Conor Gallagher remains uncertain ahead of the final nine days of the summer transfer window.

Chelsea are now expecting to sign goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic from the New England Revolution. The Blues reportedly agreed a deal with the MLS club on Monday, reportedly worth £12.5m plus a further £1.5m in surcharges.

Petrovic will fly to England in the coming days to finalize his move to Chelsea. A medical is scheduled ahead of the Blues’ game against Luton Town on Friday. The 23-year-old keeper won’t be the only confirmed signing this week as Deivid Washington has already passed a medical and an announcement should be made “soon” according to Fabrizio Romano. The West London club are looking to add at least one more attacking option to their ranks before the transfer window closes. Pochettino wants a right winger who can also operate as number 10 through the centre, football.london understands this.

Mohammed Kudus and Rayan Cherki remain in Blues care, but other targets are under surveillance. A deal to sign Michael Olise from Crystal Palace collapsed last week.
