Chelsea’s good start to the season continued with a comfortable win at West Ham, who it must be said were a fucking disgrace. That’s not to take anything away from Chelsea who did what they had to do and *grits teeth* looked good doing it. West Ham though are definitely finding out that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.
Jackson scored after just four minutes to get the ball rolling. It’s a disgusting goal from a West Ham point of view. He’s played in down the left, but he’s very wide and there’s no immediate danger. But nobody bothers to even go over to him so he just collects the ball, runs into the box and rolls it past the keeper while the entire Hammers defence stands there watching.
Actually Alvarez does try to close him down but looks like he’s pulling Marco Boogers’ caravan as he gets nowhere near him. That Mavrapanos jabroni (one of the worst players in the entire league him) just watches it all happen, the big loser.
The second goal is Jackson running away from Alvarez and his caravan again. Good play from Chelsea but what the fuck were West Ham doing and where was that Mavrapanos loser?
West Ham were denied a clear penalty when Summerville ran into the box and was pulled back. The defender just grabs hold of his wrist and holds on as Summerville is trying to run onto a pass. It’s stonewall for me, but the ref didn’t give it (fair enough) and VAR didn’t intervene (absolutely not fair enough). Scruffy arse Lopategui was kicking off on the touchline in his jeans, but the 4th official wasn’t interested in anything he had to say, and nor would I given how he was dressed. His clobber is fine if he’s sat in the stands watching the game as a fan, but you’re a manager, have some fucking pride. Moyesy would never have dressed like that.
A minute after the break Chelsea hit West Ham on the counter and Jackson fed Palmer who finished emphatically. Great goal that. There was a bad tackle in the build up by that Alvarez bum but the ref played a good advantage. They could have gone back and red carded him for that though, the dangerous slow cunt. Given how shit he is and his Ajax background, you’d have to say Alvarez is at the wrong United.
Moyes must be watching them with a face on him like that Di Caprio gif. They wanted sexy footy all yet they brought in a fella who was less entertaining at Wolves than Nuno Holy Spirit, who might be the dullest man alive. This fella is not going to be more expansive at West Ham than Moyes but he will be less solid and he won’t achieve the same kind of league positions that Gollum did either.
It’s amazing what how many doors are opened by having Real Madrid on your CV though. I reckon he’ll be the first manager sacked this season, because he looked rattled as fuck at Anfield in midweek, kicking off about non-existent penalties and demanding VAR when it isn’t even in use, and then finally pulling his calf and having to leave the stadium on crutches because he was jumping around so much complaining. Absolute helmet. And when your manager is that ill disciplined, it will filter through the team, as we saw with that ridiculous tackle by Alvarez for his sending off.
West Ham are a mess right now, but sadly Chelsea look like they’ve got something going at last. They’re the youngest team in the league but finally, despite all the craziness going on higher up in the club, Maresca and the players seem to be steadily getting better. I hate it. I’m not ready for Chelsea to be good as I was quite happy seeing them floundering in the middle of the table. I don’t see them as a threat to us but they may well be back in the Champions League soon. Assuming UEFA let them that is, apparently they aren’t as willing as the Premier League to overlook the blatant financial cheating that’s taken place.
