Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer will grab much of the limelight after Chelsea’s emphatic 3-0 win over West Ham.

But there was another player at the London Stadium who also caught the eye.

Jadon Sancho started a Chelsea match for the first time since his move from Manchester United on deadline day.

In fact he started a Premier League game for the first time since 28 May 2023 when he scored for United against Fulham.

The 24-year-old bagged himself an assist for Chelsea’s opening goal scored by Nicolas Jackson – Sancho’s second for the Blues after coming on to set-up the winner against Bournemouth a week ago.

Sancho was industrious, used the ball intelligently and looks like he will be able to strike up a good rapport with Jackson and Cole Palmer.

He also had a passing accuracy of 90% as well as two chances created and two dribbles during the 90 minutes.

It’s early days but these are encouraging signs for a player who has something of a point to prove after the way things went at Old Trafford.
