Chelsea continued their good match run wins with another win over Leicester City in the English Premier League.

Goals from Ben Chilwell, Kai Havertz and Mateo Kovacic put the blues ahead with only one reply from Leicester’s Datson Paka.

This win has definitely reduced the pressure on under fire manager, Graham Potter while putting the heat on Leicester coach, Brendan Rodgers.

This game was supposed to be about Chelsea winning but the real story is how the heat has turned on Rodgers with fans calling for him to be sacked. The home fans had almost emptied the stadium by fulltime.

Chillwell scored in the first half with a riffling volley before an equalizer by Datson Paka.
Kai Havertz scored in the stoppage time of the first half to make it 1-2 for Chelsea before Mateo Kovacic sealed the win in the second half.

So it looks like Graham Potter is finally getting Chelsea to start winning games. Earlier this week, Chelsea qualified for the quarter finals of the Champions League by beating Borussia Dortmund. Maybe, just maybe, the good times are back in Stamford Bridge.
