  1. Emery says Martinez was subbed as he was feeling 'some pain'

    Alex Howell
    BBC football news reporter at Selhurst Park

    Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez was subbed at half time of the defeat to Palace and was replaced by Robin Olsen.

    Manager Unai Emery has just been into his press conference and confirmed that it was a precaution.

    "He was feeling yesterday a little bit some pain. He trained and today he did the warm up and he was feeling good. He was feeling some pain and we had to take him off." Emery said.

  2. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Aaron Ramsdale really trusts his wall and leaves a huge gap to his left. Cole Palmer opts to go the side Ramdale is standing and it's an easy save for the Southampton keeper.

  3. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Cole Palmer, still going in search of a goal, is brought down and he'll certainly be taking this free-kick. Great position for a shot.

  4. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Cole Palmer's corner meets the head of 17-year-old Shumaira Mheuka and his header very nearly finds the back of the net! What a dream debut that would've been.

    I fear this is just papering over the cracks for Chelsea, they won't be playing Southampton every week.

  6. SUBSTITUTION

    Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Aaron Ramsdale is still on his toes as he gets across well to Enzo Fernandez's powerful strike to keep it at 4-0.

    The Argentina international is now being withdrawn for debutant Shumaira Mheuka.

    I think Cole Palmer has triple-captained himself and collapsed under the self-imposed pressure.

  8. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    A few blue seats are appearing around Stamford Bridge as Chelsea fans decide to make an early dash towards the tube station. The points have been in the bag for a long time as they occupy fourth spot again.

  9. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    More youngsters entering the pitch for Chelsea with Moises Caicedo and Christopher Nkunku making way for Josh Acheampong and debutant Mathis Amougou.

    Southampton bring on striker Cameron Archer for Flynn Downes.

  10. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Cole Palmer rifles another attempt at goal but it crashes into the side netting. He's cutting a bit of a frustrated figure.

    Cole Palmer needs a rest? He's only played 4 more matches than Saka has so far this season and that's with Saka having been injured for 2 months! Palmer's had plenty of matches where he's been rested due to not playing in European competition etc, so he can't be that tired, surely?!

  12. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Enzo Fernandez blocks Mateus Fernandes' shot inside the Chelsea box.

    Chelsea are nine games without a clean sheet and will be desperate to keep one here.

  13. 'Cool, calm finish from Cucurella'

    Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Former Chelsea & Fulham goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live

    Third time lucky for Tyrique George after a shot on goal that was blocked and a lay off that didn't quite go to plan - third time he cut back to Marc Cucurella near the penalty spot. A really cool, calm finish from the defender, slammed it past Aaron Ramsdale.

  14. Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Chelsea are up to fourth in the table as things stand. That could all change tomorrow, of course.

    GOAL - Chelsea 4-0 Southampton

    Marc Cucurella (78 mins)

    Chelsea break from Southampton's corner with Malo Gusto sorming down the right. He finds Tyrique George and his pullback is dispatched past Aaron Ramsdale by Marc Cucurella.

    It's been coming is an understatement.

  16. Chelsea 3-0 Southampton

    Southampton come forward with a rare attack and win themselves a corner after Marc Cucurella deflects behind.

  17. Chelsea 3-0 Southampton

    Bit of a training exercise for Chelsea now is this game. Attack v defence.

    Bad result that for Wolves. With the way Man Utd are playing and with Old Trafford likely being a quiet atmosphere Ipswich will fancy their chances of winning to close the points gap to 2 points.

  19. Chelsea 3-0 Southampton

    How many of you captained Cole Palmer tonight then? He's got around 15 minutes to secure you some points.

  20. Chelsea 3-0 Southampton

    Moises Caicedo finds Tyrique George wide on the left. This time he looks to find Christopher Nkunku with a back heel but it doesn't go to plan. Might've been better off having a strike there, it opened up for George in the box.
