A wonderful performance form the Jackson by secure two goals in the first half and even the entire player’s have show up good performances against west ham, this show that Chelsea want to embark their performances they don’t want what happened for them last season should repeat him self again this season; and that’s they try as much as possibly to put much efforts in every of their match to bring out a positive result.

Yes, Jackson's performance should be appreciated, because being able to score 2 goals in the match against West Ham is a very good record for him. Apart from being able to score 2 goals in that match, Jackson was also able to score 1 assist in that match. So, with Jackson's extraordinary achievements, it means that Chelsea did not just recruit him at a fairly expensive price from Villarreal. Because right now Jackson is really putting out his best performance to make Chelsea victorious. Apart from that, Chelsea's match against West Ham is now over and the final score is 3-0 and Chelsea's third goal was scored by Cole Palmer. So with Chelsea's victory in that match, Chelsea's ranking has now risen to 2nd in the Premier League standings. Of course, this is a breath of fresh air for Chelsea fans, because being able to see Chelsea return to the top of the English league standings is certainly an extraordinary thing. And next week Chelsea is scheduled to face Brighton. I think in this match Chelsea should not underestimate Brighton, because this season Brighton's performance can be said to be quite extraordinary. The proof is that Manchester United's and Arsenal were also unable to beat Brighton. So that's why Chelsea can't be careless when they face Brighton next week.

Chelsea is proving you wrong with your statements because they have scored their third goal in the game to make it 3-0; Nicolas Jackson should be the man of the match based on his performance so far, he scored two goals and provided an assist for Cole Palmar to make it three. I will be expecting a hat trick from him today so that he can prove people that are saying that he is not a good striker wrong because to score two goals in a London derby is not as easy as you think.

 Competition with good results that can be achieved by Enzo Maresca and his team, Nicolas Jackson played perfectly in this match he managed to score two goals early in the match which made Chelsea superior to West Ham, Nicolas became the spotlight on the field with the goal action he scored and the Assist obtained from a goal from a Cole Palmer, this is a good victory for Chelsea in the league. Chelsea's atmosphere is good in recent times.

Liverpool vs Bournemouth just another interesting game and the moment i saw semenyo goal i was so scared that this might not go well for Liverpool and when I actually watched the game very well that was the attempt that semenyo made i was just wait for them to declare because it was obviously an off side and after the off side the attempt that came from Diaz that shot would have been a perfect goal and Salah is getting a lots of assistance but their have not been any goal and I no that Bournemouth can not win Liverpool and attempts are getting stronger and stronger and also sure that Mohammed Salah is going to score because his even looking more lively in this game. Bournemouth are gradually unable to touch Liverpools goal post but they still need to tighten their defense better.

Look at the formation that Liverpool is using at the back. It's a crazy one because both the front and the back are secured, and this Daiz guy is going to score as well because the keeper is still keeping the ball out of the goal. If Liverpool is playing this way, then why did they lose to Nottingham? The truth is that sometimes capacity matters, and that's what happened in this case. Before the first half ends, Liverpool will have scored one goal. I love how Liverpool are playing all calm is going to be goal very soon.

Premier League matchday 5 : West Ham United vs Chelsea

West Ham United vs Chelsea become the opening Premier League for matchday 5, its interested match for today as London derby and current standings position awhile Chelsea have better performance than West Ham United. Last away match, Chelsea success securing three points after defeating Bournemouth and today will face West Ham United have bad capital after defeating by Manchester City on games week 3 then last match being draw from Fulham.

Chelsea aren't a consistent team therefore don't use their last performance to judge what Chelsea is going to play in today's match. Chelsea still have crisis in their attacking threat, Chelsea don't have a striker that can take his chances to win games that needs to be won. Although I still think Chelsea can defeat Westham but it isn't going to be easy for them and I'm thinking the match will end in a very close competition that Chelsea might secure their victory with a goal difference. Chelsea are exploring options to start selling some of their unused players and this is going to give room for improvement in the club therefore although Chelsea hasn't been playing well but they're improve.

Chelsea although not a consistent team but under new manager Maresca, he has made an impressive start to the season and is slowly improving which must be appreciated because after all they are still struggling to find their best rhythm and of course it takes time.

Chelsea vs West Ham I personally am more confident Chelsea to win this match because historically they have the advantage in this match in the last two meetings Chelsea have always won against West Ham.

In addition, what is interesting is that West Ham is actually good when playing away. However, when playing at home, they have not found their best game, this can be seen from their game history. So this will also be a benchmark that Chelsea will win this match. Moreover, if you look at the squad, Chelsea is better than West Ham because Chelsea has a lot of stock of players from the back line, midfield and front line. So I will bet on Chelsea's victory in this match with a predicted score of 0-2.

This goes to show that most times it's just good to have patient with some coaches, because I feel all this while, Enzo Maresca  has been trying to do a test run on the best formation to apply as he keep on giving Nicolas Jackson a lot of playing time despite the side talks. Nicolas Jackson was really impressive today but let him not perform like a one hit wonder kind of a guy, I think the criticism has gotten to him, let's just hope he maintains this tempo for the rest games.

Jordan Sancho signing was one of the best decisions Maresca made, the way Sancho plays shows that he has found a new home with Chelsea, the passes and assist are just topnotch. I knew Chelsea where going to win West Ham but didn't expect it to be 3-0.

Liverpool are currently on fire, two quick goals from Diaz to make it 2 - 0 Vs Bournemouth.

In London, Tottenham are currently leading Brentford by 2 goals to 1

That's the big bang question there, because of this club is known for one thing then it would be inconsistency and fluctuating form. Chelsea is a club that on their good day they actually play good football and score even plenty goals but for reason the whole formula hasn't gotten to stick yet and by that I mean the inconveniences that they cause their fans and also gamblers because am very sure if you look because of their form and performance to stake on this Chelsea team then you are probably in for some surprise.

Last season Chelsea were not playing more consistently all season so Chelsea were not in a better position, but this season I am starting to see a little bit of a difference in them and especially when Chelsea won at West Ham. But it is true as you say that in betting it is always more fearful to hold a team like Chelsea because of their inconsistency in winning games, but I was also a little surprised when Chelsea were able to win by a landslide at their opponent's home. And thanks to that win Chelsea are starting to get back into a better zone in the standings.

Chelsea's victory shifyed them upward to tgird position on the table which hasn't happened for some seasons now. This shows that it is a good start for Chelsea this season and they might finish on top four of the table.

Maresca started the season well for the first time in three seasons and his first time as a coach in Chelsea. You can see how the attackers are improving gradually and with time, they will be more fiercely and deadly to their opponents defense.

Chelsea's atmosphere is good in recent times.

Chelsea performed brilliantly today, this is the kind of performance we will continue to appreciate for a club who has spent really well on signing new players. Jackson is on the spot light due to his ability to convert possible goal scoring opportunities, we all enjoyed him today but we can't just put him there alone, not talking about a few others like Cucurella, Enzo and possibly my preferred man of the match, who today helped the team both defensively and in goal contribution, more including an assist, Caicedo really deserves to become man of the match not Jackson but despite they all should recieve their flowers for a game well played.

Who noticed that Chelsea's defense was stronger than how it looked in previous games, West Ham had the opportunity of scoring though but the blocks and intervention from the defenders where at a good level which helped the team end the game on a clean sheet. I hope the team gets stronger, Maresca now has evidence that he is mostly contributing to the team.

Still too early to me to conclude about Chelsea's form recovery, I'm not that excited yet despite being their fan, Chelsea needs to win quite a number of matches, not only tied to the Premier League, but also their winning should be extended to other competition where they found themselves, Chelsea are currently standing on third spot in the league table, but this week, they'll be opportune to occupy at least the sixth position at the end of this week matches, depending on what happened between, Arsenal vs. Manchester City game, and Brighton vs. Nottingham Forest matches.

[HajiBagi]

FT! Chelsea wins. My thoughts on this game so far

1. Caicedo is so amazing; he is so perfect in the game, and is Kante wearing his shirt?   He deserves MOTM.

2. Jackson looks even more confident with his finishing; he looks so calm and deadly.

3. Palmer is good today. It's satisfying to watch him run faster than his teammates. What a runner!

4. Medueke is so selfish in this game. I have no comment for him. He needs to get rid of his ego.

5. Tosin is very solid after being paired with colwill.

Glad to see that Chelsea is now finally stepping up. They perform even better by winning all of their away games. And their coach, Maresca, is recording the same achievement as what pep did. Winning first three away games.

What a good performance from Chelsea, I was expecting winning from Chelsea and that is what exactly happened, this is the kind of performance we want to see with Chelsea, this is the Chelsea we all want to see, although it will be very difficult for them to win the league title this season we want to see Chelsea having a good performance from the premier league so that the fans will be very happy and know that the team is building a good project and the future of the team will be Bright, Chelsea impress me with this performance today and if they keep performing like this they will have a good season.

It looks like Erik ten Hag did not know how to use Sancho, because the Sancho we always see outside Manchester United is always different, Sancho with an assist today again after giving an assist in their last match that gave Chelsea a winning in the game, I believe with this now Manchester united fans will realize that Erik ten Hag is the team problem because many players that leave Manchester united always play well when they play for another team and that hurt a lot because seeing your player having a good performance at another and he is not playing in your team very well is not good.

I'm glad to see Nicolas Jackson scoring some good goals and giving a brilliant assist. He has been proving that he deserved the extension of his contract. I liked his speed, ball control and tactical skills. Coach Enzo Maresca has started developing a team to compete with other top clubs. The good part of this team is that they created and utilised a few opportunities. Before now Chelsea created so many chances and failed to utilise much. West Ham had more ball possession and had more shots but didn't convert these chances. It has not seen Chelsea in the top three in the table for a long time, so seeing them occupying the third position is a welcomed development. Maybe Todd Boehly will change his decision to sell off his shares in the club.  

[Majestic-milf]

I thought West Ham would put up a tough fight and could even get a point in this match, but it turned out that they were really careless in the early minutes. It seems West Ham is not paying much attention to Chelsea's pace and that's what caused them to concede. Oddly West Ham doesn't seem to learn from their mistakes, where they were again caught off guard at the start of the second half, and Chelsea's pace once again overwhelmed the West Ham defence, and that ended up being the third goal for Chelsea.

West Ham have not been impressive since the start of the season, they just have two wins in their last five games and although I didn't expect Chelsea to easily beat them, I didn't also expect anything positive from them.
 So far Chelsea are going strong but I wonder if they will maintain the momentum when they meet bigger teams.

[Lida93]

Liverpool had to come from behind after conceding an early goal which was ruled out by VAR to leading by 3 goals to nil against Bournemouth. Thanks to Diaz two brace up goals. Bournemouth are just playing into  Liverpool's hand like just look at that third goal from Nunez, a goal with his weak foot from the edge of the area.

At the moment it's Liverpool 3:0 Bournemouth, for it would have been a 4th before the end of first half from M.Salah  at the 39th minutes but he was just casual with the ball as he gave a floppy shot into the hands of the Bournemouth keeper... Can see how he just smiled after the keeper catched the ball.  Feels like Bournemouth are innocently receiving punishment for Liverpool's 0:1 lost to Nottingham forest last weekend

[JoyMarsha]

Chelsea might be leading and the fans are happy but for the first 20mins both teams was showing that unseriousness in the game, after 25mins of the game West Ham took absolute control of the game till the end of the first half. Chelsea are not even in the game, the team has no flexible midfielder and with Palmer out of the equation the team can't hold the ball for a minute. Going to the defenders, Fofana has been terrible with and without the ball, he can't make a clear marking without offending the player talking about Summerville who has been making life hard for him (Fofana). And why are the defenders of Chelsea including the keeper (Sanchez) always building from the back with poor passes?  Sanchez has been lucky with those weak passes from what have seen.
I just hope the second half won't be as bad for West Ham, they have gotten their mojo back and they need to keep pressing till they get a goal which I'm expecting this second half. Enzo Maresca should be more effective while making his sub in the second half because at half time player like Madueke hasn't been in the game, Enzo still have enough option to make the game be in favor of the Blues.

When all these words you are voicing out would have been put into thought would have been if peradventure Chelsea loses to West Ham at the end of the match after leading with two goals in the first half. But so long as Chelsea wins West Ham with 3 goals, Chelsea fans won't feel bad and annoyed that Chelsea is operating from the back with poor passes. However, Chelsea is a bit stronger in their defense line despite their poor passes from the back, that's one thing that should be noted.

[stompix]

I was one step from starting to scream something really bad seeing on the feed that goal from Bournemouth, I mean common, Liverpool lost at 1.2 odds then act like they had no problem whatsoever against Milan winning easy peasy and now again, exactly when I have them on my pick, again at crappy low odds and again on a weak team?

But fortunately, VAR, and that maybe was a wakeup call and now I can no longer care 3:0 at halftime, this is how you end a game in 11 minutes:

and damn, they were 2.8 on handicap, kind of missed chance here.

[Weawant]

Amazing amazing results from Liverpool there at the end of the first half, after the cancelled goal from of Bournemouth, I see that Liverpool became powered even more and had their game on an even fast move that got them two goals and a very quick successive intervals, Diaz is looking like he's hoping to get a hat trick off this game, his attempts and moves so far has been really brilliant and Bournemouth seem to lack the defensive strength to resist them enough, one more goalie in anticipation in the second half for Liverpool and chances are Bournemouth may not get a goal as Liverpool is utilizing their home advantage maximally.

[legendbtc]

Halftime score 0 : 2, Chelsea winning with two beautiful goals from Nicholas Jackson, his finishes are notable and precise today, Cucurella is really impressing me with his availability when needed defensively, he's been a good boy today. Enzo is a great captain who's always supporting his team's midfield defensively and offensively today.

This is the easiest of games for Chelsea. Just 120 seconds in the second half Enzo with the combination of Nicolas Jackson has given Chelsea a third goal, it's now 0:3 in favour of Chelsea. It's going to be extremely difficult for Westham to turn the tides.

Today everything seems to work perfectly for the Enzo Maresca side as both the Chelsea defence, midfield and attacking front is well confident, demonstrating a clinical performance and a 100% dominance on this game. Maresca is doing a great job in this club.

Yeah two goals in the first 20 minutes of the game then another goal in the beginning of the second half will make Chelsea play comfortably, yet they are still pushing and trying to add another goal.
Chelsea is the second in the table for the moment until we see the outcomes of the other matches.
West Ham United isn't doing well in this match nor in this season at all. They are receiving many goals and failed to stop the bad results.

In this match, Chelsea did not dominate West Ham, but the quality of their shots was superior. Striker Nicolas Jackson was the standout performer. He scored two goals and assisted Chelseas' other goal. Nicolas Jackson is surprising me with his great form. In addition, goalkeeper Robert Sanchez's impressive blocking ability contributed greatly to helping "The Blues" keep a clean sheet in the first 45 minutes. Chelsea's biggest minus point in this match was Noni Madueke's position. Coach Enzo Maresca favored the number 11 winger to play for 90 minutes but could not score or assist despite many opportunities.

Coach Enzo Maresca's team is in very good form and promises to improve even more in the future. Chelsea currently has 10 points in hand, temporarily moving up to 2nd place on the rankings before the next matches of round 5 take place. Meanwhile, West Ham is still disappointed after only winning 1, drawing 1, and losing 3 after only the first 5 matches in the Premier League 2024/25.

 Competition with good results that can be achieved by Enzo Maresca and his team, Nicolas Jackson played perfectly in this match he managed to score two goals early in the match which made Chelsea superior to West Ham, Nicolas became the spotlight on the field with the goal action he scored and the Assist obtained from a goal from a Cole Palmer, this is a good victory for Chelsea in the league. Chelsea's atmosphere is good in recent times.

Of course, it was a good win and was also expected from Chelsea today.

They cannot afford to lose more points against mid-table or lower-table teams, while Chelsea need to try to win points against top-level teams whose performance is good. This is a good plan for them to maintain, at least that's how they can compete at the top this season. But don't get excited just yet, this is just about two consecutive wins against non-favorite teams.

The next match is against Brighton at Stamford Bridge, it will be a difficult match. Chelsea need to make sure they can get maximum points in their home match, of course only then will they be able to stay in a better position longer. The problems currently facing Chelsea are basically no different from last season, they are still inconsistent with their good performance.

[Palakka]

That's the big bang question there, because of this club is known for one thing then it would be inconsistency and fluctuating form. Chelsea is a club that on their good day they actually play good football and score even plenty goals but for reason the whole formula hasn't gotten to stick yet and by that I mean the inconveniences that they cause their fans and also gamblers because am very sure if you look because of their form and performance to stake on this Chelsea team then you are probably in for some surprise.

And thanks to that win Chelsea are starting to get back into a better zone in the standings.

Chelsea has shown impressive performances so far against Westham, the London derby has been a slaughterhouse for Westham today after Chelsea didn't have to wait long to break into the West Ham goal, with the performance shown throughout the game certainly not surprising if they were able to win easily over westham today and Chelsea are 3-0 ahead of Westham through two goals from Jackson and Cole Palmer, actually West Ham was able to keep up with Chelsea game but unfortunately they were too difficult to create chances and also the poor finishing was westham weakness in the match, the victory over West Ham meanwhile made Chelsea shift Arsenal position from 3rd place but to be honest it will be difficult for Chelsea to maintain its position in the standings later, the victory over West Ham is of course quite fun for Chelsea fans, but their must not forget if Chelsea is currently still in inconsistent form and has not found its best performance with Maresca.
