Chelsea moved to the top of the Barclays Premier League for a few hours at least with a fluid destruction of new boys Burnley at Stamford Bridge. Burnley, victors over Manchester United and Everton in their last two matches, were no match for an exciting Chelsea side.

Goals from Nicolas Anelka, Michael Ballack and Ashley Cole ensured Chelsea retained their 100 per cent record. But for an inspired performance by Burnley goalkeeper Brian Jensen, the margin of victory would have been much greater.

It was a performance that captured Chelsea at their best under Carlo Ancelotti’s attacking system. Burnley clearly could not cope with it and at times Chelsea’s play was fluid, fast, and exciting.
