It seemed like time has not gone by at Stamford Bridge. Didier Drogba started against Tottenham and put up a massive performance for Jose Mourinho's team, setting up Eden Hazard's goal and scoring the second of the evening. With this result Chelsea remain undefeated in this Premier League season with a six point lead over second place Manchester City.
It took Chelsea 22 minutes to set the record straight about which team would come out on top. Eden Hazard scored after 19 minutes, putting to good use an assist by Drogba, who eventually scored the second one three minutes later. The downside for Chelsea was Drogba limping off the pitch after scoring his goal, but he eventually managed to stay on for almost 75 minutes.
After the break, Chelsea continued pummeling Hugo Lloris' net, and even enjoyed a few chances before Loic Remy scored the third goal of the evening for the Blues. Remy, who came in for Drogba, finished a magnificent play with his right foot to set the final score.
Fans all over the internet are praising the Blues, who remain undefeated this season and have their followers dreaming about a championship. Eden Hazard also had words to describe today's result, while dismissing any worries about Manchester City's current form.

Didier Drogba remains the #1 & real legend of Chelsea Football Club. I wouldn't count Judas among the 12 disciples of Jesus.

Diego Costa banned so Didier Drogba starts and scores. Drogba goes off so Loic Remy comes on and scores. Strength in depth. 3-0 to #cfc.
