Chelsea 3-1 Arsenal PLAYER RATINGS: Eden Hazard was wizard on the wing but Mesut Ozil was anonymous and Francis Coquelin had day to forget

Marcos Alonso headed Antonio Conte's men into a first-half lead and Eden Hazard's stunning solo goal doubled their lead in the second period.

Cesc Fabregas made it 3-0 after a Petr Cech howler before Olivier Giroud scored a late consolation strike for the visitors.
