The current Premier League leaders had no mercy against Swansea City, giving their fans something to talk about with a 5-0 victory playing against the South Wales side. With this win, the Blues will remain at the top of the English top-flight regardless of what happens between Manchester City and Arsenal on Sunday.
Oscar started the goal scoring fiesta just after one minute of playing time. On the 20th minute mark, Diego Costa finished a good team effort to score his first goal of the day, completing his brace after 35 minutes. Then, Oscar made it 4-0 after being assisted by the Spanish striker before the half ended. After the break, Chelsea controlled the ball as they pleased, even seeming to lay back. Andre Schürrle's back heel flick made it 5-0 with just ten minutes to go in the game, and so the Blues earned three more points and took one more step in their quest to win the Premier League again.
Diego Costa now leads the goal scoring table in the Premier League with seventeen balls sent to the back of the net. The former Atletico Madrid striker has scored six goals in his last seven EPL matches, and he managed to net the ball five times this season against the Swans opponent. Surely the help of Cesc Fabregas has something to do with it, since the Spanish midfielder has dished 15 assists this season for the Blues.

Love Mourinho, 4-0 up players starting to do back heels and lose the ball. Mourinho gets up and is angry with what he's seeing. Love it
