Chelsea climbed to second place in the English Premier League, as they kept their 100 per cent unbeaten record intact, with an easy 2-0 win over Fulham in the southwest London derby at Craven Cottage yesterday.



Goals in each half from Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka led Chelsea to victory.



Tottenham also maintained their perfect start to the season following a 2-1 victory over West Ham at Upton Park.



Burnley proved their midweek victory over champions Manchester United was no fluke, as they beat Everton one-nil at Turf Moor for back-to-back home wins.
