Zabaleta: A fighter who remains as robust as ever at 32.Once again fiercely competitive throughout 6
Ogbonna: Growing and growing with every game – another excellent outing 7
Collins: Looked as though he’d never been away – outstanding performance from The Ginger Pele 8
Cresswell: Back to the top of his form – great performance 8
Masuaku: Plenty of fierce running but not at the Chelsea level today. Gave Stoke plenty to think about but we have come to expect more 6
Obiang: Quietly efficient – decent performance 6
Noble: Looked comfortable before departing after 35 minutes with hamstring injury. 6
Lanzini: Won the penalty and provided two assists for the other goals on a day of great creativity from the Argentine 8
Arnautovic: Another high energy performance. Always a threat , scored , quietened the crowd but could have had a couple more. 7
Antonio: Still looks short of his absolute best but he’s getting there and being asked to cover ‘acres’ of ground in this new offensive approach 6
SUBS:
Rice: Looked more than comfortable in the midfield role when replacing Noble. Mature performance 7
Sakho: Below speed through lack of minutes but then took his goal with great aplomb 6
Chicharito: No rating
