Sergio Augero scored twice but the gap between these two teams on a sweltering day at Wembley – in front of an impressive near-73,000 gate - was bigger than the scoreline suggests.
Aguero could have had at least four goals but at the other end Alvaro Morata continued his barren spell and his confidence still looks to be in pieces.
Maurizio Sarri has been brought in to make Chelsea more exciting and that will be the case but at both ends of the pitch.
One of the stars of the game was Phil Foden who showed what a fantastic talent he is. Hopefully, he will be given more games by Guardiola this season.
Midfielder Foden did not take long to make his mark as he saw plenty of the ball and looked a constant danger.
Chelsea then regretted the fact that they gave him too much space and he took full advantage before laying the ball off to Aguero.
He took one touch to get the ball away from Antonio Rudiger and fired an effort through the German’s legs and past Willy Caballero.
