Three minutes after the break Nicolas Anelka made it 2-0 following a terrific ball by Jon Obi Mikel and then four minutes later Nicolas Anelka scored the third from a Drogba cut back. Chelsea then ran riot, Salomon Kalou scored on 78 after great work by Drogba and then Salomon Kalou scored again in the 90th minute from a lovely Drogba crossbefore Yossi Benayoun added the sixth to score Chelseas 12th goal in just two matches.

Arsenal 6 Blackpool 0 (Premier League, August 21, 2010) (MOTD highlights) Blackpool lasted just 12 minutes at the Emirates before conceding, Arshavin threaded a pass to Theo Walcott on the right hand side and the winger drilled a low shot into the far corner. The Tangerines mission became virtually impossible on the half hour after Ian Evatt was sent off for fouling Marouane Chamakh in the box and Andrey Arshavin accepted the opportunity to open his account from the spot. It the 38th minute it was three as Theo Walcott collected a Wilshere ball in the box, spun, and produced a composed finish for number three. The Gunners started the second half as they ended the first, Sagna burst down the right and pulled the ball back where Abou Diaby crisply volleyed to set up a crick score for Arsenal. Four became five when Theo Walcott capped a fantastic personal day cutting in from the right and scoring with a left foot curler. In the 82nd minute Marouane Chamakh opened his Emirates account as the Moroccan header home a Van Persie corner for number six.
