Chelsea spoil Mourinho's return

LONDON -- Three quick thoughts from Chelsea's 4-0 Premier League defeat over Manchester United on Sunday at Stamford Bridge.

1. Chelsea spoil Mourinho's return

As familiar as defeat at Stamford Bridge became for Jose Mourinho last season, there was nothing as bad as this. He came home, and was utterly hammered, suffering his worst ever Premier League defeat. A fiercely driven Chelsea battered Manchester United 4-0.

It was Antonio Conte's side that came out like they had a point to prove, rather than their former manager, as there was never a second of this game when they didn't look superior to United.
