It's been a good week for Chelsea, as Mykhailo Mudryk finally broke his duck and Armando Broja found the net on his first start since recovering from an ACL injury. They fired the Blues to a tension-busting victory over west London neighbors Fulham on Monday, though there have been countless false dawns at Chelsea over the past year or so.

Mauricio Pochettino's men may be seven places better off in the standings, but Burnley had to open the season with a much tougher run of fixtures, and through it all Vincent Kompany kept the faith in his young players and the progressive brand of soccer that got them to the Premier League in the first place. The Chelsea hierarchy may want to take note.
