Chelsea claimed a 4-0 victory over Bolton to maintain their hold of top spot in the Barclays Premier League.[LNB]Beaten in their last two away games, there was no chance of the west Londoners suffering a third against the hosts, who had Jlloyd Samuel sent off.[LNB]Chelsea have now scored eight goals in four days against Gary Megson's team, and were brutally destructive when confronted with a team a man down.[LNB]It was hard enough for Bolton when they had 11 on the park, but they were just victims for Chelsea to bully after Samuel's red card.[LNB]Frank Lampard's penalty in first-half injury-time set up the win, with the key moment being Samuel's red card for the trip on Didier Drogba which conceded the spot-kick.[LNB]Deco added the second, Zat Knight's own-goal made it 3-0 and Drogba grabbed a fourth in injury-time.
