    There's the final whistle, and Chelsea's flawless start to the season continues! Blackpool, perversely, will take plenty of positives from this.
    90+1'
    Drogba stands up his umpteenth cross of the day... over the head of Kalou.
    90'
    Two minutes of stoppage time to be played here. As good as Blackpool have been, this is still a routine win for the champions, and the fact they will be a touch disappointed with 4-0 tells you a lot about their power.
    89'
    Benayoun shoots from the edge of the box but is repelled by another fine block.
    88'
    The away fans are getting cocky: "You've only scored four!" they taunt.
    87'
    Drogba again down the right... he dinks a cross, but it is cut out and away crom the visitors again.

    DROGBA!!! Has a sitter by his standards eight yards fromgaol but smashes it high over the bar! What a chance!
    85'
    Zhirkov tries to battle his way down the left, but Blackpool remain resolute. Really, it's been a decent second-half display.
    83'
    Good work by Cole to sprint back and make a timely interception. You don't have to like the man, but he is an exceptional footballer.
    82'
    Drogba takes on Crainey, but the Blackpool man wins possession. And a few Chelsea fans are just beginning to file out of Stamford Bridge.
    81'
    Kalou tees up Essien who fires a powerful shot well off target. The Ghanaian certainly has an eye for goal.
    80'
    Chelsea are just passing it around, but they have scored in every half this season and will be keen to add to their tally in the next 10 minutes.
    78'

    Chelsea change: Yossi Benayoun on for John Obi Mikel.
    77'
    Handball against Kalou at the edge of the Blackpool box as he lines up a shot.
    76'
    Essien waltzes past two players and has his shot blocked.... the ball loops up in the air and Malouda strikes a volley straight at Gilks.

    Drogba slides the ball in front of goal, Kalou misses it but it falls for Cole in space - he delays his shot and in the end Blackpool get a block in.

    HAREWOOD!! His cross looks for all the world like it has gone in, but it actually rebounded off the stanchion behind the goal and back into the netting.
    71'
    Drogba has it on the right side of the box, he could shoot but opts to cross low... and it is cut out.
