But Chelsea didn't impress either against West Hamless than a decade on from being out of the Football League all together, and it’s not like they’ve bought their way there.

In fact, this summer has seen just £16m spent on five players, with Marvelous Nakamba joining permanently from Aston Villa, while Ross Barkley has been a stand-out free transfer.
