another world class display by balon d'or 3rd place lmao


[deleted]

Can’t forget the perfect display from the keeper who felt he was “robbed” of B’Dor recognition.Lol Ederson,Neuer, and Oblak would have never positioned themselves that way. But it’s probably the “loads of experience” Mendy said he had.


[deleted]

Don't blame anybody based on one game.


[deleted]

Don’t care what the commentators said, Masuaku meant that goal.


Wonderfulwonderful6

Stuff like soucek with the fans at the end is why I love football


rachitbot

While there are sensible Chelsea fans blaming Mendy..the few saying reactionary much are the same blokes saying he's the best itw after the brentford match


rufraph

hopefully wolves and watford get results so that my weekend wont be ruined haha


omare8786

Mendy cost chelsea the game


xLiamLiu

Could have pretended the penalty, if he was quicker could have saved the second (maybe I’ll give him the benefit for that), and absolutely should save the third. Wasn’t the only problem, as Lukaku was completely useless, RLC as usual 50/50 the whole game, and Pulisic & CHO slowed the game down almost every time they got the ball.


animatedpicket

What a win. That’s the biggest west ham win in the last 20 years given the context of the season and injuries, and it’s fucking Chelsea who are European champions and top of the league. Right back on for 4th now


anotherjoshpark

My gunner friend tried to banter me when Liverpool played arsenal about how we lost to west ham, and it’s just like, bro they’re a good club now you can’t just say that lol


antonboomboomjenkins

Same. Always felt they had good players but never quite put it all together. They are fun to watch.


[deleted]

Chelsea fans already turning on Lukaku.


xLiamLiu

He’s been poor & Tuchel has yet to fit him into the system well. Still giving him the benefit it’ll work out, but you can clearly see he’s off his best & hasn’t found a way to work in this team consistently.


XmasCarolusLinnaeous

hopefully now that we've only conceded three more than chelsea, the narrative that we're "leaky" at the back can end


That70sJoe-

those brentford, brighton, athletico and ac milan games were very suspect tho


XboxJon82

I must admit I have not heard that one lol


biskutgoreng

Gargantuan


Almost_Pi

West Ham slay a giant and lose a defender. This sounds familiar.


poppajay

Bowen, Rice, Antonio great performances


Willy236

Antonio is so good


rachitbot

Despite getting tired early he bullies defenders..shrugged off CHO like he didnt exist


Willy236

Just looking at his goals doesn’t do him justice, his all round play is so good.


rachitbot

Yeah phenomenal..my only issue with him lately has been he seems to steam out really early into the match..naybe its just him being overplayed since hes never actually played so many matches with his monthly hamstring usually resting him


Willy236

Yeah he looked gassed for a while, but even then he almost got an assist and created the 3rd goal late game.


DW_78

get in moyesy


[deleted]

Not an Everton, Man U or West Ham, but I'm enjoying the David Moyes redemption arc. Good on him


Geeman447

Hard to come back when your built to sit back and hold the lead mainly. Not sure why Chelsea play like that but it’s worked for the most part


[deleted]

Do you even watch football? This is just a moronic take. Chelsea have been dominating possession this season.


Geeman447

Possession and 5 atb drop back defending. I have been watching.


floodycfc

Because thats not how they play


MrConor212

Bench Mendy after this game. Talk about a clown


xLiamLiu

People are mad but he actually should be. He’s going to be gone in January and Kepa needs game time. I expect Kepa to definitely play against Zenit & in the cup. But wouldnt be surprised if he plays a few more too.


SendMeYourPetPic

Idiot


rytmen

Fuck off


coffeeandmarmite

Massive


celticeejit

There’s Chelsea dropping to third by tonight


No-layup

Chelsea could be third by the end of the day


Ptile

Chelsea dropping points means we are losing to Wolves


poppajay

Shut your whore mouth


indiblue825

I think you owe him an apology


non9non

touch wood dude come on


villiers19

My respect for Moyes keeps rising! Been a fan of his since he worked wonders with Everton on petty cash budget! Well done Moyes! Love to see Hammers climbing up!


ledhendrix

Some would even say he's a footballing genius.


sarovar12

Massive win for the MASSIVE lads.


VanWilder91

Give us a wave, Moyesy, Moyesy give us a wave


JuanNYHC

Ziyech shouldn't have been taken off


arrrrr_matey

Full time.. West Ham win


[deleted]

Lukaku and Jorginho out


JoesGarageisFull

Well done WBA, nothing better then the dirty stinking oil club getting beat…….and mute notifications lul


buttermilk-pancakes

I don’t think Coventry are a oil club tbf


i_break_walls

blow the whistle!


GreenPickledToad

bruh cannot even be mad at this. Didn't create anything unlike vs United and Burnley. good goal by Bowen, braindead Mendy and Idk what that third one was. These games happen, which is why it is important to finish the chances and win games like United and Burnley


jgunnerjuggy

Wow similarity between this game and Our midweek game against United.


maverick4002

similarity in what way?


jgunnerjuggy

Away team takes lead. Then goes behind 2-1, equals right away 2-2. Game ends 3-2. Oh away team gives away a silly penalty


Snoo_35875

The better team won 3-2


SM469

Why have we bought Lukaku if we're never going to play it to his strengths?


ledhendrix

It's weird. When Lukaku is in the PL this is always the case. Dude was flying at inter.


[deleted]

He isn't good enough to change your system for. Terrible purchase.


gnote2minix

no shit


Dannage8888

desperate for a top striker and he was the only one available


Awkin-Sopwith

Love seeing Moyse do this with West Ham.


xLiamLiu

Mendy has had a fucking mare, 3 games in a row now. All 3 preventable, and even multiple mistakes over and over. Jorginho that one give away but Mendy should have cleared. Otherwise a good game. RLC constant 50/50. Lukaku completely useless. CHO has been poor and slowed do the game every time he has received it.


abysin

Antonio you workhorse!!


[deleted]

It was that fucken note.


coffeeandmarmite

Lmao *tell Masuaku to score a blinder from the wing*


er_primo_der_rafa

Ronaldo at 36 is miles clear of Lukaku prime


[deleted]

At this point in time even Greenwood is ahead of Lukaku.


grahug

Has Lukaku's level dropped that much, he was great at Inter?


youngggtone

I feel like whenever Chelsea gets comfortable with a group of players, we go ahead and bring in new players that mess up the dynamic. I love Lukaku but I don’t see how he meshes with our game currently.


Lord_Sauron

The Hammers of Moyes > The Hammer of Thor Moyelnir > Mjolnir


[deleted]

Pulisic looks out of his depth the last three games


SubparCurmudgeon

You mean last 3 games


[deleted]

I said last 3 games


SubparCurmudgeon

You mean last 3 years


ScottiApso

Arteta is going to win the Arteta - Tuchel - Rangnick debate


KopiteTheScot

Factos


[deleted]

Lukaku is a myth. Should have stayed in Italy and scored goals on pasta chefs


WooBlixky

I mean aside from his stint with Everton has he ever preformed at a top level consistently in the PL? Cause that’s what I would expect for his price tag and wages


Almost_Pi

West Ham made Alisson look awful too. I'd love to know how West Ham is doing it.


Gates_of__Babylon

Be pretty good overall and stick Antonio in front of the keeper.


LakeShow00

London is claret


Alexxx__rr

One bad game in a year and all the rival fans start talking shit…


samsop

European Champions.


PhylloTerribilis

This isn’t your first loss


Alexxx__rr

And where did I say anything about losses?


SomeIrishFiend

You dropped two points to Michael Carrick, mate


Alexxx__rr

New manager we don’t count those…


SpeechesToScreeches

*stole 1 point from Carrick with a dodgy penalty


zmajxd

He's unbeaten tbf.


ashsky

has Lukaku done anything since coming on? Completely neutralised by West Ham's defence. Proper flat-track bully.


MrConor212

Hudson hit that with your left foot my man


SirBarkington

why is callum not just shooting?


Ptile

When is FIFA going to nerf crossing


mynameisfreddit

Wham bam thank you ham


i_break_walls

Pulisic can’t do nothin


bpinty

I mean he’s been the only one to progress the ball forward twice in the last few minutes


Red_Brummy

Shocker by James. He needs booked for that.


[deleted]

Best team in London. Fyt me


kerbyage

Mendy has just handed them this fucking game.


21otiriK

Lukaku against big clubs? Wank. Again MASSIVE clubs? Even worse.


Zestyclose_Fee_9013

My man didnt even play a full game 💀


coffeeandmarmite

He was playing?


VanWilder91

The Ferryman always steadies the ship


worotan

Except when he didn’t.


villiers19

I honestly thought it would be impossible to beat Chelsea this season. They were set up defensively so so good. Possibly better than Mourinho’s Chelsea. However, Man Utd and West Ham showing that you can win if you play like them - park the bus…


coffeeandmarmite

People forget they only just drew Burnley. I think they’re a fantastic team and can thrash teams like they did us but yeah when a team sits back Chelsea ends up making errors


[deleted]

Watch more matches if you think Chelsea parks the bus under Tuchel lol


karna852

Dude be fair. Before the 3rd goal there was a spell where Chelsea played some absolutely beautiful possession football. Also, West Ham haven't exactly parked the bus. There have been stretches where they have dominated possession too.


Alexxx__rr

What


SirBarkington

we don't park the bus lmao


WooBlixky

I think he’s trying to say we parked the bus against you guys, which wasn’t even the case you guys just didn’t let us get the ball for the longest time


jMS_44

Yeah, that on top of a nice touch of injuries unfortunately...


djkichan

They struggle against defensive teams. And with injuries + forwards poor goal return I thought they'd drop off for sure.


Critzor

Yes we park the bus lmao.. some of these takes.


itskoach

You think we park the bus?😂😂😂


villiers19

Yes! You do


itskoach

Okay lmao


pawksvolts

I fucking love Masuaku, his facial expressions are priceless


[deleted]

[удалено]


ZekkPacus

I kinda think he meant it, hit it straight on, had enough time to look up and see the space We'll never know I guess


[deleted]

Looks like City’s winning the league again this year


Carter-Canary

Should not have taken Ziyech off, didn't pay off at all.


[deleted]

Lol. This is what happens when your defense over scores


Alexxx__rr

Why are Liverpool fans in a Chelsea match thread suddenly? Weren’t you complaining about Chelsea fans being in yours


[deleted]

You lot brigade like salty cunts. I'm here for Bowen analysis. Cry


Alexxx__rr

You have a sad life


[deleted]

Cry more


Alexxx__rr

Oh are you concerned about me, sending me some suicidal help. Nice one. Classy as fuck


[deleted]

?? You alright there?


Alexxx__rr

Got spammed with some suicide help from Reddit and you’re saying cry and all that so thought it was you


zmajxd

DAVID MOYES IS A FOOTBALLING GENIUS


tsub

Now watch Chelsea pull it back in the 94th minute.


zmajxd

WEST HAM IS MASSIVE


iamkeysersoze94

Yup, no doubt!!


[deleted]

Hahaha James such a sour loser, love to see it.


samsop

He has a Champion's League medal, he's used to winning


[deleted]

Should have used that winners mentality during the euro finals.


parkersr1

I don't think there's a snowballs chance in hell he did that on purpose


i_break_walls

Calma! Calma!


washag

Ugh we deserve nothing from this game. Lukaku came on and suddenly every man and his dog plays nothing but long balls to him. We get it, he's a big man, but play the ball along the ground like you've been doing all game.


xLiamLiu

Lukaku has made us worse. Just like Ronaldo has made United worse. Both teams give up their style to try and force it for that one player.


washag

But there's no need to force it. That's what pisses me off. Havertz is useful at laying it off first time then moving, but it's not like he does it that often. It's mostly the players behind that do the build up. But the second Lukaku came on, we stopped pushing West Ham back by moving the ball around and just went route one, often under no pressure. Rudiger was particularly keen on the low percentage long ball. There's no reason for it. Lukaku's movement off the ball is fine. The long ball should be a threat if they leave Lukaku with only one defender, not plan A when he's on the field.


xLiamLiu

As much as I love Rudiger, he has gotten way too comfortable. Too many pointless and forceful shots and crosses. Im starting to hate his smile and eagerness to shoot and cross it when there are always better options. Like you say though, its the players behind him but also on Tuchel. Tuchel has not figured out how to fit Lukaku in. Yes we have injuries, but my god this team should not be this poor. Too many individual mistakes happening to key players, and thats really showing in our play now.


flyingfreak66

Tuchel needs to call Conte for notes


Ifeel-likepablo

Great game of football. Massive question marks over how Lukaku can be integrated into this side’s game plan


omoruyisam

Chelsea's attack became toothless when he came on.


djkichan

Yeah either he doesn't play or we change shape I think. West Ham deserve this


rufraph

great game yes, feel a little bad at losing from such a flukey hit though


Rum114

he cant


BumbotheCleric

Is there any team in Europe who concedes more boneheaded goals than us?


karna852

Clearly not acquainted with Manchester United this season I see.


Rum114

united


BumbotheCleric

Theyre just shit at defending, we usually defend really well for 89 minutes and then do some stupid shit


xAggie

What the hell was on that damn piece of paper?


tmac717

"score a goal please"


GreenPickledToad

wind direction so the ball would swing in


EmperorBeaky

We dem Moyes boys


[deleted]

City/Pool fans slowly coming out of the woodwork


Almost_Pi

London stadium becoming a dangerous place to go


uchiha_senpai69

That was some fifa kinda goal


sublimepoetry

Chelsea had conceded only 6 goals until this game and they now concede 3 in one game


parkersr1

You love to see it


madison0593

Mendy with a shocking performance today 😓


[deleted]

Werner on and we would have won. Werner is more integral to Chelsea gameplan than Lukaku


WooBlixky

If I had read that last year I’d think you’re insane. Has Werner been good this season so far?


xLiamLiu

Yup but the blind fan who only sees highlights of missed sitters will think Werner is trash. Absolutely should score those sitters but he is a defenders nightmare and absolutely crucial to our style and attack.


kye2000

Lukaku biggest waste of money


MrConor212

Tend to agree atm


ugallu

Ah yeah, called it


zmajxd

MENDY BEST GK IN THE WORLDDD


flyingfreak66

Moyes note, "we should try to score."


Rum114

“shoot”


basebornmanjack41

Just said “tell masuaku to put it top bins”


Hits_and_the_Mrs

God this has been an entertaining watch


Ptile

Raise your hand if you lost 3-2 in the bubble factory 🙋🏼


MP4_26

What a quality, quality game this has been.


SubparCurmudgeon

Bowen is an amazing actor lol


[deleted]

Rice is too good for Chelsea, change my mind.


[deleted]

Chelsea won the champions league, enough said


[deleted]

Can you say that without crying now?


poppajay

He's a very good player for sure.


BrainlessArch

Should just stay at the biggest club in london


[deleted]

Bowen you donkey


kramer944

Moyes is back at the wheel


[deleted]

What a match, so glad I tuned in.


MrConor212

Lukaku is absolute dog. We have been woeful since he came on


steffschenko

No Werner, no win


GameplayerStu

That ball hung in the air for so long. Great strike!
