Adam Armstrong’s deflected effort at the end of first-half was enough to secure all three points for the hosts.

Many of Chelsea players’ performances have come under fire, however, Cole was particularly unimpressed with Jorginho.

Commenting on Armstrong’s goal, Cole said on BT Sport, “It’s fantastic, they (Southampton) are flooding bodies forward.

“Jorginho gets beaten way too easily for me, Armstrong goes to make a run in behind, he knows the centre-halves have to get across and it is a lovely finish with his left foot.”
