Chelsea vs QPR
Sept. 23rd 2009

Sam Hutchinson

Sam Hutchinson and Fabio Borini got their full debut in this 3rd round Leage Cup encounter. Hutchinson had an excellent match alongside Ivanovic at centre half. He didn't set a foot wrong the whole match and was instrumental in the build up to Kalou's goal. Borini did well on his full debut paired with Kalou up front. He had a couple shots saved by QPR's keeper and held up the ball well on the break. Chelseafc.com have an interview with Sam here



Jeffery Bruma and Nemania Matic were unused subs.
