Summer arrival Hakim Ziyech joined Chelsea from Ajax for a fee of £33.3m
Audio By Carbonatix
Hakim Ziyech netted his first Premier League goal as Chelsea cruised to victory over winless Burnley at Turf Moor.
Making his first league start for the Blues, Ziyech wrong-footed Burnley keeper Nick Pope, expertly dispatching Tammy Abraham's lay-off in the 26th minute.
Defender Kurt Zouma doubled the advantage just after the hour mark, rising highest to head home a Mason Mount corner.
And summer arrival Ziyech then turned provider seven minutes later, sliding through Timo Werner who side-footed an effort beyond the onrushing Pope.
Chelsea rise to fourth while Burnley remain 18th in the table, with Ashley Barnes missing one of the Clarets' few chances when through on goal in the opening minutes.
