Summary

Three whole points for Chelsea Football Club...

It's a Bank Holiday bonanza as Matt Davies-Adams, Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey bask in the glory of just a second win in 17 games for the Blues.

We reflect on the 3-0 victory over Luton - and celebrate another sensational performance from Raheem Sterling who bagged a brace for Mauricio Pochettino's men.

There's the obligatory transfer talk as we count down to the end of the window - including the arrival of goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic, potential loan to Manchester United of Marc Cucurella - and what Andrey Santos should expect at the City Ground.

Then - we pick our starting XI for Wednesday night's visit of AFC Wimbledon - as the Blues get their League Cup campaign underway.

We'll be back on Thursday to round up that match and looking ahead to the visit of Nottingham Forest ahead of the international break!

Produced by Lucy Oliva.
