Gary Cahill hailed Chelsea’s performance in their 4-0 drubbing of
Manchester United as one where his side “dominated from the first minute
to the last”.
Cahill, captaining Chelsea in John Terry’s absence,
grabbed Chelsea’s second goal with a close-range finish after Pedro had
given the Blues the lead within 30 seconds.
It is Chelsea’s third
consecutive Premier League win, and Antonio Conte’s men have now scored
nine goals without reply across those games after Eden Hazard and
N’Golo Kante added second-half strikes.
Cahill said his side were pleased with another win, and even more so with the performance.
“Winning the game is the most important thing but the performance today was fantastic,” Cahill told Sky Sports.
“We dominated from the first minute to the last and it was a really impressive performance from us.
“I couldn’t miss from there,” Cahill added, speaking about his
strike. “I’m delighted to get a goal. It was a decent moment in the
game.
“The performance that went with the three points was the most pleasing thing.”
Fellow goalscorer Hazard echoed Cahill’s glowing assessment of Chelsea’s display.
“It
gives [us] a lot of confidence, we start well. We deserved to win. We
dominated the game from the first minute to the end. For the fans, for
us, it’s a great afternoon,” he said.
“It’s a big game and we lost two big games this season against Liverpool and Arsenal and for the fans that means a lot.
“Today
I did well, the whole team did well. In football the most important
thing is three points. We have a lot of confidence now we have won three
games in a row.”
