After a goalless draw at halftime, Pochettino boys returned in the second half with a different energy as their summer signing Cole Palmer netted their opener just 9 minutes after the second half resumed.
The 21-year-old Palmer continues to prove why it was worth being signed for £40m.

It was also a day many Chelsea fans hoped to see their summer arrival Christopher Nkunku make his debut after recovering from an injury he suffered during Pre-season that put him in the sidelines since August.
Nkunku was named in matchday squad though he remained as unused substitute.
