Right, that is all from me. Plenty of Chelsea reaction to come so head on over to our main football live page to get it all. 

See ya!

All over and life after Jose Mourinho begins with a win for Chelsea. 

Three minutes of added time but, barring a crazy collapse, Chelsea are firmly on course for a first league win in three games.

Fine save by Thibaut Courtois! 

The Chelsea keeper stretches out a hand to deny Jermain Defoe's drive and ensure the Blues avoid a nervy final few minutes.

Some players have been booed by Chelsea fans today, but not Oscar. He goes off to universal applause as Ramires enters the fray for the closing stages.

Feels like there is another goal in this game as we head into the final 10 minutes.

One strong final message of the day from Chelsea's fans as Cesc Fabregas and Diego Costa are substituted in quick succession.

The reception is decidedly mixed with loud jeers - and there are noisy chants for Jose Mourinho as Costa walks slowly off.

That's Diego Costa's last action of the game as he is replaced by Loic Remy for the closing stages. Once again, the departure of a Chelsea player is met with a mixed response from the crowd.

Better from Chelsea as Branislav Ivanovic drives the ball across the box from the right, but Oscar fluffs up his finish, before a defender takes the ball from the feet of Diego Costa just as he is about to shoot.

Chelsea coach Steve Holland makes his first change of the game as Cesc Fabregas is replaced by Mikel.

A mixture of boos and applause as Fabregas goes off. Plenty of repair work to be done between the Chelsea fans and players.

After such a dominant first-half display, Chelsea are looking a little bit more like the side that has struggled this season at the moment, and they are fortunate not to see their lead reduced to just one goal.

This time, Duncan Watmore heads a ball down for Jermain Defoe but he powers an effort into the side netting. That would have made things interesting.

Today is a very good day for Jose Mourinho's ego, because his name is not being chanted at just Stamford Bridge. 

Manchester United are 2-0 down at home to Norwich and it seems the Red Devils' fans are making their feelings known about Louis van Gaal and who they want to replace him...

Fabio Borini has only been on the pitch for 11 minutes but he has had a big impact on this game already.

Moments after pulling a goal back, he strokes a shot just wide of the far post. 

A swift response from Sunderland as half-time substitute Fabio Borini bundles in from close range after a free-kick was headed into the middle of the box by Younes Kaboul.

Simple stuff from Oscar as he rolls the ball into the net from the penalty spot. 

Chelsea's third isn't enough to prompt the home fans to cheer their team, though, as once again Jose Mourinho's name rings out around the stadium.

Dream start to the second half as Chelsea break and Willian is nudged over by Costel Pantilimon inside the box as he chases a Pedro ball. Pantilimon goes in the referee's book and Chelsea have the chance for a third from the spot...

Applause greets the Chelsea players as they emerge back on the pitch for the second half.

Sam Allardyce rubs his face as Sunderland get things back under way.
