Kovacic and Ngolo Kante were relentless in their pressure while Loftus-Cheek, despite playing out-of-position at right-wing back, played a crucial part in Chelsea's physicality, but also in attack by being involved in two goals.
I was confident to go and step up, you have to put yourself in those moments because it's going to happen in your career.
There was nothing there today. I don't feel sorry for the players but I do genuinely believe the players care.
Sevilla and Atletico Madrid have been credited with interest, while even Barcelona were said to be monitoring a player of considerable promise at one stage.
The winger has most certainly improved during his time in Europe. He was a substitute for Colombia during the 2019 Copa America, but had grown into the team's best player by the time the 2021 edition came by last summer.
He said Barton was intimidating towards him after that game, which was also won by Barnsley, and squashed his hand during the post-match handshake.
I think everyone saw it clear as day on the big screen from behind the goals - the angle straight on doesn't see it but the minute it goes behind the goals, you see (Rocky) Bushiri just clipping Harry Paton's heels as Paton goes to block the shot.
The Blues' last trip to King Power Stadium inadvertently led to the beginning of the Thomas Tuchel era, a limp 2-0 defeat in January proving to be predecessor Frank Lampard's final game, and this display was further evidence, if needed, of how much they have progressed since.
The Athletic claims Pep Guardiola’s side have elbowed out their rivals and are close to concluding a deal that would see the 21-year-old remain at River for the rest of the season before moving to Eastlands in the summer.
He puts his head down, he trains harder than anybody else, he looks after himself, and he supports every team-mate under every circumstance.
They were different experiences but both very positive ones in my career. Premier League, Bernardo Silva admiration Ze Roberto's two spells at Bayern came either side of a move back to Brazil with Santos.
Recently, it has been the Gunners who have been starting matches at high-speed to nullify opponents and if they can do the same against the 2020 league champions, their chances of coming away with something will be greatly increased.
Then, just minutes later, Robert Anrich added Leverkusen’s third with a sweetly struck free-kick into the bottom corner from 20-yards out.
Egypt, unlike Senegal, weren’t consistently tipped for a strong showing in Cameroon ahead of the tournament, and fears that a lack of midfield creativity might limit them were realised during a stodgy group-stage showing and, particularly, their opening loss to Nigeria.
As he prepares for training in Bucharest, Romania, where Dynamo's players are camped following their journey from Ukraine, Romanian head coach Mircea Lucescu cannot afford the luxury of smiling. Not yet. At 76, he is the oldest still-active manager in top-level European football, but he is tireless.
Wolves had earlier forced saves from Nick Pope either side of half-time, but mustered little in way of a response.
They are not too far off the top six at the minute, and that will please Gary Rowett. They like a draw too, and I can't split these.

We wanted to get this game out of the way and we understand nobody will be pleased about it. It is a poor situation.
Aubameyang is the big one; dropped for that [Southampton] game, stripped of the captaincy, hasn't featured since and now with Gabon at the Africa Cup Of Nations.
I was out for a while but then I was back, I scored and we won the derby [against Tottenham]. It's not over. I signed a long contract here to stay for a long time. Chelsea is the most important club in my career. I want to give back all the chances they put in me. That's my only target.
Boro continued to threaten after going behind and were rewarded with an equaliser shortly before the interval.
Man City's Raheem Sterling has been directly involved in 12 goals in just eight appearances against Watford in all competitions (10 goals, 2 assists).
Combining both teams to score and Norwich to get 10 or more shots away at 4/1 should give you a great run.
On the final day of the 2020 campaign, Smith kept the club in the top flight, before leading them to 11th last season.
Still, we've rounded up a list of each club's primary, as well as secondary, penalty takers in the table below, and the players who have the best chance of being picked to convert a spot-kick.
We deliberately signed Jesse, with full conviction, because we wanted a bit of a return to the RB DNA. We didn't succeed in taking this step.Under Marsch, Leipzig won just eight of 21 games in all competitions. They were 11th in the table and out of the Champions League when Mintzlaff and Marsch decided to put an end to things in December.
On the surface, the transfer makes some sense for Newcastle. They have an injury to Callum Wilson to deal with and despite flashes from Joelinton of late, he is their own reliable striker. Bringing in Wood gives them a striker who can slot into the Premier League with a consistent scoring record of his own. He is not a desperately sophisticated player, nor is he a carthorse. He should fit in well with his teammates with little difficulty.
They are among the favourites for the tournament, having won it seven times before, more than any other nation.
Another of those to have been mooted as a potential United manager of the future for some time now is Brendan Rodgers, who remains in the mix despite his previous ties to Liverpool.
