Chelsea 5-0 Everton player ratings: Woeful Blues thrashed at Stamford Bridge
Ian Doyle hands out some very low ratings after a terrible result for Koeman's Everton
Maarten Stekelenburg 4
To say he could have done better for the first two goals would be a kind understatement. Will point to Pedro perhaps putting him off for the first, and at least made some saves after the interval.
Ashley Williams 4
Never looked at ease dealing with the Chelsea forward line on the right of a back three. Matters didn't improve after moving to centre-back either.
Phil Jagielka 4
Made a few blocks and interceptions but struggled to stem the tide. Booked for dissent after being clobbered in to the advertising hoardings by Luiz.
Ramiro Funes Mori 3
Like his defensive colleagues, found Chelsea's free-running forwards impossible to contain. Switched to left-back where he proved he isn't a left-back.
Seamus Coleman 4
Fortunate to escape even a booking after an ugly challenge on Costa early on and was done by Hazard for the opener. May be wishing he was dismissed so not associated with this awful Everton display.
Gareth Barry 3
Lost possession with almost his first touch, and was contributed to Everton losing the ball for the opener. Picked up a second-half booking which means he misses the Swansea game next week.
Tom Cleverley 3
Isn't the same type of player as Idrissa Gueye, and boy did it show. Difficult not to feel a pang of sorrow for him, but also not difficult to imagine him having a better game.
Bryan Oviedo 3
Hard to remember a contribution from the Costa Rican. At least his early substitution was proof he was playing.
Yannick Bolasie 4
Showed brief hope of linking with Lukaku early on then disappeared. Was booked, and then reappeared long enough to disappear when substituted.
Ross Barkley 3
With Everton continually pushed back, the midfielder barely had a touch. But he really should be doing more to be involved in such instances.
Romelu Lukaku 4
Service? What service? Given barely any assistance, but didn't help himself with a weak challenge that allowed Costa to snaffle Chelsea's third.
Kevin Mirallas (for Oviedo 36) 3
Not even Messi, Neymar, Pele and Maradona could turn this around.
Aaron Lennon (for Bolasie 60) 3
“Fancy scoring five goals for us, Aaron?” A truly thankless task.
Tom Davies (for Barry 66) 6
It's easy to praise a youngster on a day like this. But he genuinely showed more heart during a late cameo than the rest of the Everton team put together.
Chelsea 5-0 Everton: Eden Hazard master-class fires Blues top of the Premier League
Chelsea soared to the top of the Premier League table this evening with an Eden Hazard-inspired 5-0 win over Everton at Stamford Bridge.
Antonio Conte’s side have been in unbelievable form since losing to Arsenal at the end of September, winning five league matches in a row and scoring 16 goals without reply.
Despite facing a potential banana skin in Everton this afternoon, Chelsea made Ronald Koeman’s side look like relegation fodder with a quickfire double in the first half.
Hazard opened the scoring in the 19th minute after cutting in superbly from the left-hand side, and scoring the kind of trademark goal that saw him win PFA Player of the Year in 2015.

Incredibly, the second Chelsea goal came just 23 seconds after the re-start, with the Blues punishing the Toffees for some slack defending, allowing wing-back Marcos Alonso to fire in beneath Maarten Stekelenburg.
Diego Costa scored his eighth goal of the season three minutes before half time, leaving the visitors wondering quite what had hit them.
Chelsea carried on as they’d started in the second half, with Hazard weaving his way through the Everton defence to score a delightful fourth in the 56th minute, and eclipsing his total goal tally for last season in the process.
Less than ten minutes later, it was 5-0 as Pedro tapped in to cap a fine individual display for him, and condemn the Merseysiders to an embarrassing defeat, conceding as many in one game today as they had in their previous five league games.
