Chelsea have their third, fourth and fifth goals in a flurry against Morecambe, and they were some super efforts.
Tosin Adarabioyo got the first, in a sort of re-run of his goal to open the scoring. This time there was no deflection on the super strike he hit from outside the box though. His long leg wrapped around the ball even though it was slightly behind him, and he pulled the finish back in at the near post. He’ll remember that for a long time, no matter who it was against.
Tosin’s season has certainly had it’s ups and downs. He’s played a fair amount since signing, but recent weeks saw a significant moment as he lost his place to Josh Acheampong for the game against Crystal Palace. He will hope that two goals today help his cause in terms of getting back into Enzo Maresca’s plans.

Then it was Joao Felix’s turn. Much like the rest of this team, he’s trying to earn himself a starting place by playing well, and he can’t do much more than score goals like this.
The first was nice – a ball pulled back to him which he rolled low into the bottom corner, wrong footing the keeper with a short backlift strike.
If that subtle, clever effort wasn’t enough, he followed it with a jaw dropping effort. After some nice interplay down the left, Felix picked up the ball on the edge of the area, shook free of a defender and launched the ball into the top corner.
