Mason Mount scored his first Chelsea hat-trick, as the Blues thrashed Norwich City by a 7-0 scoreline on Saturday afternoon.
Despite not having the likes of Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku at his disposal, Head Coach Thomas Tuchel found the right solutions as the leaders extended their lead at the top of the table.
Thomas Tuchel’s men were 2-0 ahead inside 18 minutes as Mount and Callum Hudson-Odoi scored their first goals of the season, with Mount turning provider to set up Reece James for a third goal before half-time.
Fellow defender Ben Chilwell, scored for the fourth successive game to extend Chelsea’s lead shortly after the restart, before Max Aarons’ own goal and Mount’s late double wrapped up the win.
The Canaries defender, Ben Gibson was sent off for two yellow cards to cap a miserable afternoon for the away side, who remain rooted to the bottom of the table and without a win this season.
The win ensured Chelsea also became the first top-flight club in five years to have four different English players score in the same game, something which last occurred when Bournemouth played Hull City in 2016.
