Collymore hails Chelsea's 'best performance in some time'

Collymore, who was in attendance at Villa Park for Chelsea's 3-0 victory, took to social media to express his admiration for the Blues' display. 'Best team performance I've seen at B6 for some time,' he wrote, highlighting Chelsea's 'high press, discipline and enterprise' in their comprehensive win.

Joao Pedro's hat-trick and Cole Palmer's goal capped off a dominant display that saw Chelsea thoroughly outplay their opponents. The former Villa striker acknowledged that his old side was 'filleted by better players playing through several gears rather than one' in the match.
