See the player ratings for this game
Mendy: Continued his impressive form with yet another clean sheet. Good game in goal. 7/10
Azpilicueta: Solid defensive performance, and supported the attack at will. 6/10
Rudiger: His first game of the season. Did okay, but you’d wonder if he’d cope against a better attack. 6/10
Zouma: Needed some medical attention after taking a blow while defending a corner. Did okay, but his partnership with Rudiger wasn’t too solid as Krasnodar threatened time and again. 6/10
Chilwell: Wasn’t at his best, but he did okay. 6/10
Jorginho: Missed a penalty to extend Chelsea’s lead. Couldn’t control the midfield in the second half as Krasnodar mounted the pressure. 5/10
Kovacic: Did decently in the first half, but his combination with Jorginho didn’t seem to work in the second half as the Russian side continued to press. 5/10
Kai Havertz: Assisted Hudson-Odoi for the opener and seemed to have a spark around his game going forward. 7/10
Ziyech: First start for Chelsea and got a very good goal. Got better as the game went on. 7/10
Hudson-Odoi: Had an element of luck with his goal, but it was worth the effort. Not a dominant game from the flank as he’d have liked. 7/10
Werner: Quiet game until he banged a fine penalty. His performance improved when Pulisic, Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham joined the fray. Set up Ziyech for Chelsea’s third goal. 7/10
Substitutes
Mount: Good game in midfield to help against a Krasnodar side that seemed difficult in the second half. 6/10

Pulisic: Brought spark to the attack and scored the fourth goal for Chelsea. 7/10
Emerson: Late sub for Chilwell. 6/10
