Southampton 1-4 Chelsea: 3 players who impressed and 2 who were poor

Impressive: Jan Valery

Valery showed plenty of promise in a bleak performance

There was a moment as the game came to a close when Jan Valery won back possession from Christian Pulisic high up the pitch. He pushed forward and was mobbed by Batshuayi, Pulisic, and Marcos Alonso, yet he managed to squeeze the ball away and play it forward. It sort of typified his game.

The young full-back was constantly fighting a battle down the right flank, both defensively and offensively. He kept his cool for the most part in defence and was beaten by sheer numbers as he received no support. Going forward, he carried the ball up the pitch repeatedly and tried to find his forwards in the middle.

He found Danny Ings for Southampton's only goal of the game, but even apart from that assist, he was one of the reasons Chelsea came out slightly more conservative in the second half.
