Here are the Twitter reactions between Chelsea and Watford which ends in a 3-0 victory for the Blues.
Chelsea had the chance to leapfrog their rivals Tottenham Hotspur to third spot with a victory on Sunday against Watford. They followed the same blueprint to convincingly beat Watford 3-0 in front of their home fans to move an inch closer to securing Champions League football.
The Blues were brisk from minute one, but they struggled to break down the resilient defence of the Hornets who stood like a brick wall to stop everything which fell in their way. It was an entirely different second part of the game, when Eden Hazard’s ball found Ruben Loftus Cheek inside the penalty box.
The English International leapt over the defender to open the scoring for the Blues. David Luiz gave a two-goal cushion when the Brazilian headed one from the set piece to ease the pressure on Maurizio Sarri. Chelsea played with total freedom throughout the game and scored their third through their striker Gonzalo Higuain.
The Argentine International ran behind the defence and calmly slotted the ball past the goalkeeper Ben Foster. It was a very intelligent finish from the Argentine who has not hit the heights expected from him since his arrival.
We shall look at the Twitter reactions between Chelsea and Watford.

FYI: If Chelsea/Arsenal win the Europa League but also finish in the top 4, the Europa League winners Champions League spot will go to whoever finishes 3rd in Ligue 1 rather than the competitions runner up.

Chelsea have kept six clean sheets at home in the Premier League in 2019, the joint-most in the competition this calendar year (together with Everton).
