Chelsea could only manage a draw away at Bournemouth in the Premier League despite being the better side for large parts of the game at the Vitality stadium. Raheem Sterling came close to winning it with a free kick but in the end both sides had to settle for a point.

Chelsea came into the game having lost their last three away games in the Premier League dating back to last season. They hadn’t suffered four top-flight away defeats in a row since a run of five from October to December 2000.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino was forced to leave out record signing Moises Caicedo due to what reports say is a minor knee issue after international break.

Great save in the first half after some brilliant play from Bournemouth. Made himself big.

Raheem Sterling who has scored two goals and has two assists this season came into the game alongside Mohamed Salah with nine goals vs Bournemouth, the most anyone has scored against the Cherries.

Lesley Ugochukwu impressed in midfield in place of Mosies Caicedo while Robert Sanchez made three world class saves to ensure Chelsea did not go behind.

Goalscoring still remian a big problem for Chelsea and even though there is enough to suggest Nicolas Jackson will be a big player, he can do with some help at the moment to aid his development and speed up Chelsea’s project. Robert Sanchez was incredible and it was worth his first clean sheet of the season.

Here is how we rated the Chelsea players out there today.

Has settled settled so well given the injury to James. Not a lot gets past him. Can do better attacking wise.

Has looked very dangerous through out the season. There was a feeling that if anything good is going to happen was going to be Sterling. Smashed a free kick off the post early in the second half.

Starting his first game of the season, Mudryk looks like a man whose confidence is shot. Hooked in the second half.

Passed well but then just never really gets into a position to score goals or assist them regularly.
