    Carabao Cup: Kai Havertz Hat-Trick Helps Chelsea Hit Six, Arsenal Edge Out Leicester

    Frank Lampard said Kai Havertz is just getting started after opening his Chelsea account with a hat-trick in a 6-0 thrashing of Barnsley, while Arsenal also booked their place in the League Cup fourth round with a 2-0 win at Leicester.





    Highlights


    Frank Lampard said Kai Havertz is just getting started after opening his Chelsea account with a hat-trick in a 6-0 thrashing of Barnsley, while Arsenal also booked their place in the League Cup fourth round with a 2-0 win at Leicester. Havertz had struggled to make an impact in his first two Premier League games since sealing a reported 71 million pound ($94 million) move from Bayer Leverkusen as the most expensive signing of Chelsea's 200 million pound spending spree in the transfer market. But the 21-year-old German was one of just three players to retain his place from Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Liverpool and Lampard's decision reaped its reward as he scored his first senior hat-trick.
    "I am delighted with Kai, it was everything I wanted from him," said Lampard.
    "He had no pre-season so I wanted to give him more time on the pitch with his teammates, learning how we play and press. It was a great night for Kai and it is the first of many for him."
    Thiago Silva and Ben Chilwell also made their Chelsea debuts, while Tammy Abraham and Ross Barkley made the most of rare starts to get their names on the scoresheet.
    Abraham pounced on loose pass deep in the Barnsley half to slam home the opener before Havertz's calm finish opened his Chelsea account.
    A brilliant unselfish flick from Abraham teed Havertz up perfectly to convert his second after Barkley drove home on his weaker left foot.
    Havertz was due to be replaced by Chilwell 25 minutes from time but just completed his hat-trick in time by rounding Brad Collins before tapping into an empty net before Olivier Giroud completed the scoring.
    "I am very happy to score three goals, but this is just my beginning at the club and I want to score more and more goals," said Havertz.
    Chelsea will face either Tottenham or Leyton Orient in the last 16 with the outcome of that tie yet to be decided after the match was postponed on Tuesday due to a number of coronavirus cases among the Orient players.
    Arsenal won the only all-Premier League tie of the night as Christian Fuchs's own goal broke the deadlock at the King Power.
    Eddie Nketiah added a late second for the Gunners, who could face Liverpool at Anfield twice in three days next week should the Premier League champions progress past Lincoln on Thursday.
    "It's the toughest place to go in Europe and the world," said Gunners boss Mikel Arteta. "Let's prepare well and see how it goes."
    Everton continued their fine start to the season with a 5-2 win at League One Fleetwood despite two howlers from England number one goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
    Carlo Ancelotti's men looked to be cruising into the last 16 when Richarlison's double gave them a deserved 2-0 half-time lead.
    However, Pickford's attempted clearance was charged down for Mark Duffy to pull a goal back.
    Alex Iwobi restored Everton's two-goal advantage before another Pickford mistake gave Joey Barton's men life again as he flapped Callum Camps's shot into his own goal.
    Goals from Bernard and Moise Kean finally ended the tie as a contest, but Pickford's place for both Ancelotti and Gareth Southgate will come under increased scrutiny in the coming weeks.
    "When we concede a goal, we are always frustrated," said Ancelotti on Pickford's performance.
    Newcastle thrashed League Two Morecombe 7-0 with Joelinton scoring twice.
    Miguel Almiron, Jacob Murphy, Isaac Hayden and Jamaal Lascelles were also on the scoresheet for Steve Bruce's men.

    Man Citys Prem challenge hit with early injury crisis as Gabriel Jesus knock leaves Guardiola with just 13 fit players

    MANCHESTER CITY are having a mare in their bid to reclaim the Premier League title as Pep Guardiola has a striker crisis and just THIRTEEN fit senior players.

    Citys injury woes deepened yesterday when the Brazilian FA confirmed Gabriel Jesus is out for at least three weeks with a calf injury.

    Guardiola, whose side face Leicester on Sunday, is already without main forward Sergio Aguero for several weeks with a knee problem which leaves 17-year-old Liam Delap as their only recognised striker.

    Guardiola said: The situation is we have right now, we have 13 players but we have to try to win the game.

    Even so I see the team well, I see happiness, good relations - we have an exceptononal group.

    And this is why we have the academy - when we need players we can use them. It depends on the quality of the players but theyll get chances.

    Guardiola, who has a squad of 22 established first-teamers in his squad, was already without seven players for the victory at Molineux.

    Eric Garcia is fit again but Nico Otamendi is now out injured as Citys hunt for a new centre-back goes on.

    Benficas 60 million ace Ruben Dias is the latest name in the frame with his club admitting yesterday the 23-year-old could leave for the right offer.

    Chelsea fought back from 3-0 down to earn a point at West Brom and make up for a first-half defensive horror show at the Hawthorns.

    Everton made it three wins out of three as they topped the Premier League after a 2-1 victory at Crystal Palace on Saturday, won by a controversial penalty which was converted by Richarlison.
