It was billed to be a tough game against a plucky opponent. In the end, Chelsea made short work of a Wolverhampton side to secure qualification for next season’s Champions League.
Goals from Mason Mount and Olivier Giroud in first-half stoppage time sent the Blues into the break in a position of overwhelming strength.
The team did well to see out the second half in what was a thoroughly professional display. It appears that work had been put in training following the reversal at Anfield earlier this week.
With a summer rebuild on our hands, a return to Europe’s top table was imperative. We can now chase the best talents knowing well that we can provide them with top-level football.
It is a testament to Frank Lampard’s work in what was a testing preseason. The transfer ban ensured there would be no new players coming in.
Lampard made the most of what he had and in the end, it appears that his faith in the kids has been well placed. There is a long way yet for the Blues to go under his stewardship but for now, we have taken a massive step in the right direction.
Next up is the FA Cup. Winning it will ensure the Blues go yet another season without a trophy drought.
