Summary
So...Chelsea's goalkeeper is quite good isn't he?
Matt Davies-Adams has got Dom Fifield and Liam Twomey in tow to reflect on the remarkable man of the match performance of Edouard Mendy who ensured the Blues came away from the Brentford Community Stadium with all three points. There's also some love for Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Malang Sarr who starred - and withstood the late onslaught.
Focus then shifts back to the Champions League, with the European champions welcoming Malmö to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.
