Twitter was on fire as Chelsea fans expressed their frustration over the lose and others trolled the Blues.
Here is how Twitter reacted to Chelsea's lose in the London derby:
Pedro, Moses and Courtois were decent.Cahill was Cahill.Christensen was Cahill.Azpilicueta was Cahill.Kante was idk.Fabregas tried something.Bakayoko was shit.Hazard had too many on him.Morata is in Reid's pocket.Willian was Willian. Not talking abt Zappacosta at all.
You can't blame that on Marina Granovskaia, Michael Emenalo or any of the Chelsea board. We've lost to Crystal Palace and West Ham - two of the worst teams in the league. Antonio Conte has to take responsibility for that.
Other football fans took this opportunity to troll Chelsea
West Ham last season: Takes the title away from Tottenham and hands it to Chelsea.West Ham this season: Takes the title away from Chelsea and hands it to Manchester clubs.
A performance that really shows up how bad they were under Bilic. Now looking fit, organised and like they know what they’re doing. Fair play to Moyes - two good performances in a row. Keep doing that and they shouldn’t go down.
