Chelsea 1-3 Saints, 2015/16 Premier League

One of the most memorable away wins of recent times as Saints put a faltering Chelsea side to the sword.

A long range Willian free-kick drifted into the top corner to give Jose Mourinho’s side the lead, but Saints were level at half-time thanks to a nicely taken effort from Steven Davis.

Sadio Mane squeezed the visitors into the lead after exactly an hour and then set up Graziano Pelle to fire in a third to put the result beyond doubt.

Saints’ best season since returning to the top-flight saw them finish in sixth and qualify for the Europa League the following year.

Saints team: Maarten Stekelenburg, Cedric Soares, Jose Fonte, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Bertrand, Steven Davis, Victor Wanyama, Oriol Romeu (James Ward-Prowse), Sadio Mane (Maya Yoshida), Dusan Tadic (Jay Rodriguez), Graziano Pelle
