Cole Palmer scored his 50th Premier League goal for Chelsea on his 105th appearance. He's the third-fastest to reach that milestone for the Blues, after Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink (84 games) and Diego Costa (85 games).

The Blues have netted nine goals in the opening five minutes of either half in the Premier League this season. No other team has scored more than three, while only in 2008/09 (10) and 2024/25 (11) have the Blues netted more such goals.

Morgan Rogers became the first Chelsea player and just the second Premier League player to reach 10 goal involvements in all competitions this season (six goals, four assists), after Erling Haaland. Rogers’ five league goals make him our top scorer in the competition.

Romeo Lavia won possession 14 times against Manchester United, the most by a Chelsea player in a Premier League game since Lewis Hall did so at Fulham in January 2023. It is also the joint-most by any player in the top flight this season, alongside Ipswich Town’s Argentine international midfielder Exequiel Palacios against Nottingham Forest.

The Blues have kept two clean sheets in our last three Premier League games, one more than in our previous 28 matches in the competition. They were also Mike Penders’ first Premier League clean sheets, having played the last 15 minutes at Everton and the full 90 minutes against Manchester United, both 2-0 wins.

Chelsea won a Premier League home game without conceding for the first time in 13 matches, since a 2-0 victory against Brentford in January.

On Saturday, at 23 years and 89 days, we named our joint-second-youngest starting XI in a Premier League match, matching the age of the line-up that faced Newcastle United in October 2024. The 23 years and 21 days of the team that beat Crystal Palace 2-1 in December 2023 remains our youngest of all time in the Premier League.
