Chelsea ace Cesc hails 'fantastic' Pedro debut

Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas hailed Pedro's goalscoring debut.

Pedro scored the opener and set up Diego Costa for Chelsea's second in the Blues' 3-2 win at West Brom.

"It was a fantastic performance from him," Fabregas told Sky Sports. "I knew straight away he would make an impact.

"He was something we didn't have in our team.

"He is a player that can go in behind defenders. He can dribble and go one and one. He has this ability to stretch teams.

"I'm very happy for him."
