    When you saw N'Golo Kante in a Leicester team, they conceded possession and he was probably at his best then. Because Chelsea have had so much of the ball he's not been needed. Really it's up to the Eden Hazards and the Oscars to turn this performance into goals.

    From the corner, defender Branislav Ivanovic rises highest to get on the end of it, and his flicked header loops over the far post. Could easily have dropped in.

    Now. Winston Reid brings down Diego Costa about 30 yards out.

    Willian is over the free-kick...

    The ball bounces around in the area following the corner and Arthur Masuaku dawdles on it instead of clearing and Oscar nips in.

    The Brazilian midfielder is brought down by our Arth but Chelsea cannot make anything of the free-kick.

    Chelsea earn a corner after a sliding tackle from Andy Carroll in the left-back position.

    Can they make anything of it?

    And Big Sam.

    West Ham's holding midfielder for the day Havard Nordtveit loses possession as the last man and almost gifts the ball to Diego Costa, but can recover to get the ball away.

    Good job he was able to show a bit of pace there or his side would have been in real trouble.

    Chelsea boss Antonio Conte warmly applauds a pass from Oscar which is about five yards behind Willian and goes straight out of play.

    Must be an Italian thing.

    Chelsea have not found their range yet, but the next one may find the back of the net.

    Striker Diego Costa collects the ball outside the area, before shifting it to his right and lets fly with a shot that West Ham goalkeeper Adrian waves over the crossbar.

    You're desperate to play at a new club and suddenly you get an injury after all that pre-season work. It's very disappointing.

    Yep, Andre Ayew is done, his West Ham debut lasts just 33 minutes.

    The former Swansea man, who has the right leg of his shorts rolled up, hobbles off the pitch and down the tunnel.

    On comes on-loan Besiktas man Gokhan Tore for his debut...against his old club.

    That pacy run from Eden Hazard has caused West Ham debutant Andre Ayew big problems, as he has pulled up trying to chase the Belgian.

    His debut could be over here.

    Eden Hazard is playing very wide. I'd like to see him play more centrally. If you compare him to Neymar or Gareth Bale - they are wide players but end up centrally. It's a little bit rigid and it's something the manager may want to look at.

    Fantastic play from Eden Hazard, his influence is growing in this game.

    The Belgium forward picks the ball up deep in the West Ham half before wriggling his way through to the area.

    He attempts a right-footed curler into the far-bottom corner, but with Adrian beaten, the ball goes agonisingly wide of the post.

    In unison, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte and owner Roman Abramovich lean back and hold their heads. Close.

    West Ham made a very composed start. This was their possession in the first five minutes...

    Chelsea have steadied though - this is the overall possession so far in the first half.

    Chelsea striker Diego Costa is caught on his heel. If he had been bursting his lungs to get into the box this would have been 1-0 to the home side.

    Eden Hazard works the ball well on the left before drilling a teasing cross across the six-yard box, begging to be slipped into the net, but it rolls through to the other side of the area and to safety.
