Chelsea cruised to a dominant victory over West Ham United at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, extending their impressive home record in the Premier League.
The Blues put out a five-star performance on a hot Sunday afternoon with Palmer, Gallagher, and Madueke, all grabbing a goal apiece while Jackson hit a brace against the Irons, Footballrover reports.
The Blues made just one change from their previous win over Tottenham, with Thiago Silva replacing Alfie Gilchrist, and started strongly, taking the lead through Cole Palmer’s fine finish in 15 minutes.
Conor Gallagher’s superb volley doubled Chelsea’s advantage 15 minutes later, and Noni Madueke headed in a third goal moments after, following a towering header from Silva.
