The woes of Norwich City in the English Premier League was compounded on Saturday as they were thrashed 7-0 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Mason Mount was the main man for the Blues; scoring his first Chelsea hat-trick as the Premier League leaders ran riot in a 7-0 romp humiliation of 10-man Norwich.
The England midfielder had not scored for his club yet this season before Saturday but helped himself to a maiden senior treble at Stamford Bridge as Thomas Tuchel’s dominant side went four points clear at the summit in the early weekend kick-off.
Callum Hudson-Odoi also netted for the first time in 2021/22 with Chelsea not lacking goals in the absence of injured strikers Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner, while Ben Chilwell continued his prolific recent run and fellow defender Reece James also notched a stylish effort, with Ben Gibson sent off for rock-bottom Norwich.
It is Chelsea’s biggest win of the Tuchel era so far and their most emphatic scoreline since putting eight past Aston Villa without reply back in 2012.
