Siriki Dembele (Moore, 85’) – N/R. Provided energy and delivered the cross for Solanke’s late chance.

CHELSEA RATINGS: Kepa Arrizabalaga - 7. Decisive when needed while also showing plenty of composure with the ball at his feet. Dealt with efforts from Jaidon Anthony well. AP
Reece James - 8. Linked up with Raheem Sterling brilliantly and provided quality with his crosses. Had a good shot saved after he beat Jordan Zemura in the box. Worryingly replaced just after half-time. AFP
Kalidou Koulibaly - 7. Played some poor passes in dangerous positions but positioned himself well and defended authoritatively. Made a great header to clear Zemura’s cross, then came close with his head at the other end. AP
Thiago Silva - 7. Overcame an early knock to put in an impressive display, getting across well to stop Dominic Solanke, then cutting out Zemura’s late cross. Played a pass that was cut out in his own box. Getty
Marc Cucurella - 8. Put in a confident defensive display, notably flicking the ball away from Jack Stacey in his own box. Also showed his quality on the ball.
Reuters
Denis Zakaria - 8. Looked very confident on his Premier League debut and defended with authority, notably tackling Zemura in his own box. Couldn’t hit the target when opportunities came in the second half. AP
Jorginho - 7. Played a nice pass to Mount in the build-up to the opening goal and continued to move the ball well. Also took up some great defensive positions.
AP
Mason Mount - 9. A real livewire, impressively releasing Sterling in the build-up to the opener. He then scored the second with a beautiful strike. Reuters
Raheem Sterling – 8. Linked up brilliantly with James and gave Zemura plenty of problems throughout, setting up Kai Havertz’s opener with a perfectly weighted pass. Had other impressive moments, having a strong strike denied by Travers and picking out Zakaria in the box superbly.
Getty
Kai Havertz - 9. Scored the opener with a clinical finish, then laid the ball off nicely for Mount to get Chelsea’s second – although he also dragged a shot wide from a good position. Put in a strong performance and even defended corners well.
Reuters
Christian Pulisic - 6. Fired wide with Adam Smith pulling at his shirt, then had a goal ruled out after Havertz was adjudged to have fouled Smith. Often looked frustrated and fired a wild effort off target from a promising position in the second half.
EPA
SUBS: Cesar Azpilicueta (James, 53’) – 6. Struggled when Bournemouth ran at him, although he also nodded back to Kepa when a potentially dangerous ball was played through. Delivered a great cross for Koulibaly’s chance.
Reuters
Conor Gallagher (Zakaria, 82’) – N/R. Saw a shot from a promising position blocked by Lloyd Kelly after doing well to cut inside Zemura. Reuters
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Pulisic, 82’) – N/R. Played a nice ball through to start a move but was halted by Marcos Senesi when trying to make a burst forward of his own. Trevoh Chalobah (Sterling, 88’) – N/R.
Reuters
BOURNEMOUTH RATINGS: Mark Travers - 6. Despite conceding twice, he made three impressive saves to deny James, Sterling and Mount.
AFP
Jack Stacey - 4. Often outdone by Cucurella and couldn’t squeeze his touch past the Spaniard after getting into the box. Was taken off at half time.
PA
Adam Smith - 5. His pull on Pulisic proved enough to put the American off without conceding a penalty, although he often struggled to keep up with the winger. Got back brilliantly to deny Havertz as he ran through.
Reuters
Marcos Senesi - 6. Got an important touch on crosses from James and Sterling. Also did well to rob the ball from Mount, then won the ball from Zakaria well in the build-up to Christie’s chance.
PA
Lloyd Kelly - 5. Looked very indecisive in the early stages but grew into the game as it progressed, making impressive interventions to stop crosses into the box during the second half. Blocked Gallagher’s late shot.
AFP
Jordan Zemura - 6. Given a real headache by Sterling, not just because he clashed heads with the winger after being beaten to the ball. However, he battled well and also caused danger with his runs forward.
Reuters
Lewis Cook - 7. Battled well throughout, notably putting in a great tackle to prevent Pulisic from breaking forward, while he also did well to cut out Sterling’s pass.
Reuters
Jefferson Lerma - 5. Did nowhere near enough to stop Mount from scoring his goal, although he did have bursts of positive play, including when he played the ball out to Ryan Christie. Smashed a shot horribly off target.
EPA
Philip Billiing - 4. His attempt at defending for the Mount goal looked lazy and there were plenty of times where he struggled to make any real impact on the game.
Reuters
Dominic Solanke - 7. The former Blues striker made a brilliant burst forward to win a free-kick in the opening minute and continued to be very busy. Was unlucky that nothing came of him winning the ball back inside Chelsea’s box and to see his header go marginally wide.
EPA
Kieffer Moore - 4. Lost the ball too easily before the end of the first half and struggled to really make his mark on the game.
Reuters
SUBS: Jaidon Anthony (Stacey, HT) - 6. Completely outdone by James but grew into the game and hit a shot from range that was saved by Kepa. His free-kick went straight at Kepa.
Reuters
Ryan Christie (Billing, 66’) - 6. Had positive moments as he tried to make things happen but often couldn’t quite complete the final pass. Was denied by Kepa from a tight angle.
