Mauricio Pochettino’s happiness after the win against Tottenham last week will only have been added to by the result for Chelsea yesterday.
He saw his side pick up a dominant 5-0 victory over London rivals West Ham, with his attackers in particular on fire.
Nicolas Jackson found the net twice, with Noni Madueke and Cole Palmer also scoring in what was a terrific 90 minutes.
With many of the injured players returning only able to make the bench, Pochettino named a very similar side to the one that had played just three days earlier.
This saw Moises Caicedo continue in midfield, and put in yet another imperious performance as he continues to come into his own in the middle of the park.
Pochettino gets the best out of Moises Caicedo
Playing in the absence of regular midfield partner Enzo Fernandez after his season-ending injury, the 22-year-old has shown the quality many were waiting to see since his record transfer last summer.
Ever since half-time of the draw against Aston Villa a few weeks ago, the Blues have operated in a new system where Marc Cucurella regularly crops up in the middle of the park and helps with both build-up play and pressing.
Caicedo starring alongside Conor Gallagher
This has offered help to Caicedo in terms of not leaving him isolated, with Conor Gallagher continuing to feature in more advanced areas to great success, shown by his goal yesterday.
Completing 92% of his passes, the Ecuador international added an assist to his great display in typical fashion, winning the ball back in his own half to release Jackson one on one with the goalkeeper.
There will be questions asked about what the answer is when Fernandez returns from injury next season, however one question that has already been answered is that if Caicedo was going to be a flop at Stamford Bridge. The answer is a resounding no.
