Chelsea were held to a 0-0 draw by Watford at Vicarage Road on Wednesday, a result that extended the Blues' unbeaten record to 10 games.

The game started with the travelling fans offering a big reception for John Terry, following the news that the Blues captain has not been offered a new contract by the club:

"

Chelsea fans cheer loudly when John Terry's name is read out... #cfc

Diego Costa was soon heavily involved in the action, conceding a foul for a scuffle with a defender:

Into the second half and Costa was at the centre of attention again, picking up a yellow card for a clash with Juan Carlos Paredes, for which the Watford man was also booked:

Chelsea picked up the tempo as the game progressed but struggled to find a way through, leading the fans to call for a substitution:

"

"

Crying out for Hazard here. #CFC need a bit of craft.

Eden Hazard's introduction helped the Blues create a number of late chances, only for Watford goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes to keep them out:

"

Gomes, take a bow, that is a stunning save from Costa, might earn Watford a point

— Jack Rathborn (@JackRathborn) February 3, 2016"

In the end neither side were able to find a way through, as the game finished goalless:
