Chelsea boss Frank Lampard was pleased with the attitude of his players for their 4-0 FA Cup defeat of Morecambe.
Goals from Mason Mount, Timo Werner, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Kai Havertz did the damage against League Two opposition at Stamford Bridge.
Lampard admitted the visitors were difficult to break down but he was happy with how his players persevered with the task.
"It was professional," he said. "We could have scored more goals maybe but the game was very comfortable, although it wasn't easy.
"Credit to Morecambe because they were very organised, sat deep and in the early parts of the game they covered all the spaces. It took a while to break them down but I was pleased. It was a game we should win with the squad we have and we did because we did everything right.
"We've had some results we don't like recently so it was an important part of the process to deal with this game in the right way."
