The returning Diego Costa played a key role as Chelsea earned a much-needed win over struggling Aston Villa to ease pressure on Manager Jose Mourinho.

But the biggest win in the EPL came from Man City yesterday, as they thrashed visiting Bournemouth 5-1.

The striker tapped in Willian’s pass midway through the first half after defender Joleon Lescott’s mis-control gifted the ball to the home side.

It was a welcome break for the Blues, who doubled their lead when Villa’s Alan Hutton deflected in Costa’s shot.
Chelsea, 16th in the table at the start of the day, were not at their best – but Villa offered little.

What contributions Tim Sherwood’s side did make to the game were all in Chelsea’s favour as they repeatedly gave the ball away and were punished accordingly.

They remain in 18th place and without a win in their past eight matches.

Chelsea’s second home win of the season moves them up to 11th in the table, five points behind fourth place.

Raheem Sterling scored a hat-trick as Manchester City thrashed Bournemouth to remain top of the Premier League.
City were missing the injured Sergio Aguero but went ahead when Sterling poked in despite looking offside.
