The era of Luiz Felipe Scolari exploded into life at Stamford Bridge today with the merciless dismantling of a Portsmouth side with European aspirations of their own. Scolari conveyed a message of attacking intent to the rest of the Barclays Premier League.
Scolari's first match in charge suggested he wants style as well as substance, and they continued to push forward after Cole opened the scoring in the 12th minute.
Nicolas Anelka, Scolari's only senior forward available, headed in his first goal at home for Chelsea - before Frank Lampard put the result beyond doubt approaching half-time, scoring a penalty just five days after sealing his new five-year contract at the club. Deco, making his debut, added a late fourth from long range.
