Chelsea destroyed Ian Holloway's side with four first-half goals
- two from Florent Malouda and others from Salomon Kalou and Didier
Drogba.
Blackpool improved in the second half and Branislav Ivanovic had
to clear off the line from DJ Campbell while substitute Gary Taylor-Fletcher
brought a fine save from Petr Cech.
It took just two minutes for Chelsea to take the lead when Drogba's
corner was flicked on by Branislav Ivanovic and Kalou supplied the
finish at the far post.
It was the Ivory Coast striker's fourth league goal of the season
and Chelsea's 22nd in total so far this season.
