John Terry marked his 400th Premier League appearance with a crucial goal as Chelsea recovered from conceding inside 13 seconds to beat Southampton 3-1 @the Bridge, and go second in the table.



The Blues had actually moved up a place on goal difference before kick-off, following Liverpool's defeat at Hull earlier in the day.

But their hopes of staying there took an instant hit when an inexplicable Michael Essien volley allowed Jay Rodriguez to run through and put the visitors ahead.

However a vastly improved second-half performance, full of purpose, saw Chelsea take the lead through headers from Gary Cahill and his centre-back partner Terry.

And half-time substitute Demba Ba sealed victory in the final minute, sliding the ball home from close range after a Ramires cross.

The win also sees Mourinho extend his premierleague 67-game unbeaten run @Stamford Bridge... What a record for the Happy One!
