Our friends at Opta say that seven of Chelsea's 10 shots have been on target today. Pedro's first goal (17) was the pick of them when he was found by Oscar (8) after a neat one-two with Alexandre Pato (11).

"Lerner out" banners are also seen as the team pass the ball around with a lack of urgency. Pato is through here in the inside-left channel but he is hauled back by Alan Hutton. Booking.

Jake Clarke-Salter comes on for his Chelsea debut, replacing Pedro, to continue the forward-looking theme to the Chelsea team. 

As he comes on, Villa fans orchestrate their latest protest about the club on 74 minutes, to coincide with the date (1874) that the club was founded. Supporters groups have asked for fans to leave in the past but this time they are holding up their sheets of paper which say: "Proud history, what future?"

Alan Hutton bulldozing his way down the right, with Jordan Ayew helping out. Villa fans are booing Leandro Bacuna every time he touches the ball. The midfielder has had previous run-ins with fans.

Meanwhile, Jack Grealish has a decent penalty shout as he's clipped by Pedro. Neil Swarbrick says no, but it looked very debatable. 

Jack Grealish, maybe trying to prove a point, makes an almost instant impression. He drives towards the byline on the right and drills a low cross which makes it way across the six-yard line with Ashley Westwood almost on the end of it. 

Good to get back to the football.

Dean Samways: David Pleat comparing Villa's defence to cones is the nicest thing anyone has said about them this season!

Francis Edwards: Why is it that chairmen and managers are the first people targeted by fans? The players Villa have got are not even Championship level.

Rachel Armitage: Part of me admires the loyalty of the Villa fans who turn up to watch such tripe... the other part thinks what a waste of money!

Jack Grealish and Leandro Bacuna are on for Carles Gil and Carlos Sanchez. Boos ring out as Grealish makes his first appearance since January. A player who, like Gabriel Agbonlahor, has been in the headlines for the wrong reasons this season. 

Villa look to make a change as Leandro Bacuna and Jack Grealish get ready on the touchline. Something needs to change from a Villa point of view.

Oscar has made a huge difference since coming on. He cannot believe his luck and the space he has wide on the left. Good news if you have him or Pedro in your fantasy team! 

Carlos Sanchez now goes into the book as he pulls back Ruben Loftus-Cheek. The least of Villa's worries.

"Under an hour gone and quite a few spectators are leaving early. But what did they come for in the first place? What did they expect today? They must be season ticket holders who paid it all at the start of the season. 

"Villa have capitulated in the second half."

Which comes to nothing. Caretaker boss Eric Black looks mystified on the Villa bench. What must go through a manager's mind at times like this?

Villa fans now singing: "You're not fit to wear the shirt" to their players followed by "Villa 'til I die." Depressing times at a once great club. 

On the pitch, Villa force a corner.

Villa fans now holding up a banner which says: "No fight, no pride, no effort, no hope." 

Not much to add to that except to say that we might be on for another march out of Villa Park on 74 minutes, as has been seen in previous home games.

"I thought Chelsea would take their foot off the gas in this second half, but that was a brilliant goal. 

"But that defending was so passive. It looked like a Chelsea attacking training routine, playing against cones. So easy for Chelsea."

Jordan Ayew is not happy with a tackle from Alexandre Pato, as the Brazilian wraps his legs around the Villa forward. Neil Swarbrick steps in to administer a few words. 

Ayew then takes out his frustration on the ball as he smacks a looping shot from 25 yards but Thibaut Courtois is well behind it. 

Oscar says 'de nada' and then fancies a goal himself as he surges down the left and pokes a shot goalwards. Brad Guzan dives to his left to save.

Ewan Lury: Pato for Ballon d'or? Less than one half played and one goal. Best goal per minute rate in the world!

Robbie Cunningham: OK, I'll concede, Pato has had a good debut so far. But he needs to do a lot more than this to convince me!
