The steal of the summer, Sarri’s blue-eyed boy, Jorginho. Hey what you famous for after this weekend? My run up to take my penalty.

A goal in your sides three goal victory, on your debut is something any new player to the English Premier League wishes for. It was a solid performance by Chelsea’s new man, Jorginho. So much so so, he was awarded the Man of the Match by the Stamford Bridge brigade.

An unorthodox penalty was the highlight of the midfielder’s weekend, and so was it the highlight of the day. One things for sure, he certainly had Ben Hamer fooled. A run, a pause, a jump, and a goal.

Besides Liverpool beating West Ham by the widest margin this weekend past, Jorginho helped Chelsea to the second best victory of the weekend. If you want, they were a goal short of the Reds’ flawless performance.
