The past two weeks have been brilliant as far as Chelsea are concerned. 17 goals scored without reply in all competitions. Sadly for other fans though, they would probably have missed the spectacle due to a host of other much-hyped fixtures. Consider this:

Spotlight: Arsenal v Tottenham
Bolton 0 4 Chelsea
