João Félix opens his counter

After missing his debut with Chelsea almost a month ago - he was sent off for his first against FC Fulham (2-1) -, João Félix performed well this Saturday afternoon against West Ham (1-1) for his second appearance with the Blues.

Positioned in support of Kai Havertz, the Portuguese was voluntary, active with and without the ball.

And above all effective.

Because shortly after the first quarter of an hour of play, he stood out perfectly - on the verge of offside - to take over the millimeter center of Enzo Fernandez and open the scoring.

Unfortunately for him, his first goal in his new colors did not allow his team to snatch victory.

Emerson remembers fond memories of Chelsea

Transferred from Chelsea to West Ham last summer for €15.4 million, Emerson recalled fond memories of his former team this Saturday afternoon.

While the Blues were logically leading in the score, the Italian perfectly felt the blow on the deflection of Jarrod Bowen's head shortly before the half-hour mark to deceive Kepa's vigilance at the far post and thus equalize.

A goal that gave the Hammers a good one.

Lucas Paqueta's injury

Lucas Paqueta will not have had time to weigh in on the meeting.

Established in midfield with Declan Rice, the Brazilian was forced to give up his place shortly before the quarter hour mark after being hit in the right shoulder, falling to the ground during a duel with Noni Madueke.

It is obviously very sad that the ex-Lyonnais returned to the locker room for treatment.

Mykhaïlo Mudryk and Noni Madueke did not weigh in

Bought at a hefty price this winter - €100m bonus included for the first and €35m for the second - to make the difference on the wings, Mikhaïlo Mudryk and Noni Madueke did not live up to expectations this Saturday after -noon.

The Ukrainian and the Briton were certainly enterprising but did not manage to put themselves in a position to score and offer good balls to their teammates.

They will have to be more decisive in their next match so that Chelsea - in attack breakdown in recent weeks - can regain the taste of victory.
