 first-half strikes from Juliano Belletti and Patrick van Aanholt for the Londoners, who also featured Ricardo Carvalho.

Menseguez's first was a neat finish past the goalkeeper after Albion had seized on a Chelsea defensive mistake and he struck again when he reacted quickest to a loose ball inside the Chelsea area after a free-kick was struck against the defensive wall.

Another positive for Albion was that midfielder Youssouf Mulumbu completed his third 90 minutes in the reserves as he continues to build up his match fitness.

As well as Menseguez and Mulumbu Kim Do-Hoen also played 90 minutes and teenage winger Chris Wood continued his run of good performances in the reserves.
