‘Chelsea Were Far From Their Best’ – Cahill
Chelsea defender, Gary Cahill says the blues were way off their best form, following their 1-0 loss to West Ham.
Arnautovic scored his first goal for the Hammers, putting them ahead as early as the sixth minute.
West Ham decided to sit back and defend after their early lead and Cahill was displeased Chelsea failed to break them down.
“We were miles off [our best] from the start,” the defender told Sky Sports .
“They got the early goal, which was a poor one on our behalf. We still had plenty time, but that laboured start carried on throughout the game.
“We didn’t play our stuff. They got the goal, sat behind the ball and tried to hit on the break.
“It was a bit frustrating with their time wasting, which was clever on their part, but we were just not at the races. It was very disappointing.”
“We have to wait and see,” added Cahill. “It was a huge game for us and we needed to win.
“We have to sit back and wait for the results tomorrow. We have to freshen up and get the energy levels back up. We’ve been in good form recently which is why it’s so disappointing.”
