Hull v Chelsea player ratings

Pedro Neto’s hat-trick helped Chelsea romp past Hull City in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Here’s how we rated each Blues player in the 4-0 win against Liam Rosenior’s former side.

Robert Sanchez: 6

The Spaniard had little to do until making a couple of decent late saves, but a trademark brain splurge of a moment saw him needlessly charge out of his goal and so nearly led to a late Hull consolation.

Reece James: 7

Steady and reliable at both ends of the pitch, but one sloppy moment where he tried to see the ball out so nearly led to a Hull goal.

Jorrel Hato: 7

Hato looked assured on the ball and showed his powers of recovery and pace as well.

Wes Fofana: 7

Quietly efficient, Fofana was a calming influence and did all that was asked of him defensively while making good decisions when using the ball.

Mamadou Sarr: 7

Sarr impressed on his first Chelsea appearance, the 20 -year-old showing good defensive maturity and also his ability with the ball at his feet.

Andrey Santos: 8

Another eye-catching and effective showing by a player whose selfless efforts allows others to shine. Santos was also unlucky not to score with a decent header soon after the break.

Moises Caicedo: 7

A typical Caceido performance – understated and unflustered but full of control and class in the midfield.

Alejandro Garnacho: 6

Lively and threatening without ever truly looking totally convincing from his many promising positions. Garnacho looks like a player who has more he can offer but has not really been able to show it since joining.

Estevao: 8

A surprising first-half miss never affected the Brazilian, whose ability, pace and sheer energy and enthusiasm already makes him a breathtaking talent – with bundles of potential.

Pedro Neto: 9

Chelsea’s standout attacking player, long before his sweetly-struck opener. Neto played like a man with something to prove after a recent dip in form. He was always involved, showing good delivery in open play and from set-pieces, and also his goalscoring ability.

Liam Delap: 7

Delay recovered from a dreadful first half, when his touch and technique deserted him, with his late assist seemingly providing the confidence for a vastly improved second half in which he laid on two more goals and showed he can run the channels and hold the ball up.

Josh Acheampong: 7

He looked comfortable after coming on, showing no signs of a hangover after a couple of costly moments in the midweek draw with Leeds.

Enzo Fernandez: 6

With the game already won, played within himself, making the most of his mini rest and also enabling Caicedo to take a breather.
