Chelsea 1 - 2 Hammers

What an introduction this is. Andy Carroll scores barely two minutes after coming on, but let me tell you, Chelsea players have not covered themselves in glory here.

Dimitri Payet - who we all know is the most dangerous player on the pitch - breezes past John Mikel Obi before feeding Carroll. That's mistake one.

Mistake two is letting the ball go through into the path of Carroll.

The Englishman scuffs his shot which ends up in the back of the net. For some reason, Thibaut Courtois falls over and he would have had an easy catch if he just stayed standing up. Mistake three. Punished.

"Thibaut Courtois is not the keeper he was last season. But what a goal from Andy Carroll, just off the bench!

"West Ham's luck is in at the moment, after a brave decision to bring a forward on for a midfielder. And Chelsea really are here for the taking."

The Offish reckons they should have had a man off for a last man foul on Chery. He went close from the free kick.
