The new look Chelsea under Maurizio Sarri have been in impeccable form this season wining 20 points from a possible 24.
The Blues have dropped just two points against West Ham and Liverpool but have won six other matches including; Huddersfield, Arsenal, Newcastle, Bournemouth, Cardiff City and Southampton.
There are a couple of indicators showing it could be another successful campaign for the 2015-16 champions after their dominant display against Southampton.
Firstly, Chelsea this season, have built their team from the midfield with Jorgino, N'Golo Kante, Willian and Hazard all getting involved.
In the the match against Southampton, there were 31 passes completed which led to Alvaro Morata's goal and Chelsea's third against the Saints.
Another point of reference is Ross Barkley being the first Englishman to score and create an assist for Chelsea since Frank Lampard did against Sunderland in 2013.
Barkley was instrumental to the Blues victory at St Mary's scoring one and provided an assist for teammate Hazard.
The third fact can not be proven without Hazard's blistering form this season after refusing to leaving Stamford Bridge for European champions Real Madrid in the summer.
The Belgian captain has been involved in 11 goals scored by Chelsea in their last 11 matches this season.
