Spotted: Cucurella's stunning run almost sets up fellow new boy Sterling with pin-point cross

Marc Cucurella almost had his name in light on his debut when he sped into the final third and fired an accurate low cross into the path of Raheem Sterling in the game against Everton.

Sterling connected with the cross brilliantly but his shot was well blocked by the outstretched legs of Everton's Vitaliy Mykolenko.

Here's a breakdown of the episode:

Cucurella receives the ball on the left and runs into the empty space

His diagonal low-cross is perfect for the onrushing Sterling

Mykolenko makes the block and Sterling regrets his luck

However, it shows Cucurella could be a real menace for Chelsea down that left flank this season.
