Midfield

8. <p>At £32 million, this transfer could easily be the bargain of the season. The Frenchman was exemplary today, Burnley couldn’t figure out how to get past him.</p> <p>Key Stat: Made 2 interceptions over the 90 minutes; both lead directly to Chelsea goals.</p>. CDM. France. N'GOLO KANTE

CM. Serbia. NEMANJA MATIC. 7.5. <p>It seemed that the Matic of 2014/15 that turned up today. Becoming more disciplined in attack, while still retaining his defensive solidness.</p> <p>Key Stat: His 2 clearances were joint second most on the team.</p>

OSCAR . 7. <p>He’s transforming into an accomplished centre-midfielder. Playing so deep unfortunately compromises his attacking threat and linkup play with Hazard. Drifted out of the game towards the end, but another solid display.</p> <p>Key Stat: 4 total tackles, joint most by both teams.</p>. CM. Brazil
