5 takeaways from Chelsea's defeat to West Ham United

#2 Bakayoko is a non-starter

Tiemoue Bakayoko

Ah, Tiemoue Bakayoko. The French midfielder was brought in from Monaco in a move that should have meant the solidification of Chelsea's defense, but alas, the opposite has happened.

He was very lack luster today and barely made a contribution, let alone an impact on the game. Attacks flew past him in defensive midfield time and time again and any neutral would be forgiven for thinking he wasn't in the pitch throughout the first half. He was promptly substituted for Pedro at the start of the second. Manchester United fans must be euphoric.

Don't let my words tell the whole story, here's twitter erupting:

Bakayoko might just be our worst signing under abramovich.

Anyone who ever compared Bakayoko to matic or pogba needs to be arrested

Bakayoko dispossessed himself, then lost possession, then fouled himself #NotMyCM
