Chelsea came from 2-0 down to beat London rivals West Ham United 3-2 in the Premier League on Saturday, continuing Liam Rosenior’s impressive start to his tenure.
The Hammers found themselves two goals ahead at the break courtesy of strikes from Jarrod Bowen and Crysensio Summerville, prompting Rosenior to make three changes at half-time.
Two substitutes made an instant impact as Wesley Fofana’s cross was met by Joao Pedro to halve the Blues’ deficit, before fellow substitute Marc Cucurella nodded the hosts level after the ball had bounced off the woodwork.
The match looked to be heading for a draw until added time, when Enzo Fernandez drilled home to put Chelsea in front, sparking wild celebrations inside Stamford Bridge.
That win moves Chelsea into the top four in the Premier League, while West Ham remain in the relegation spots.
Away from the action, it has emerged that two Premier League clubs are interested in a Chelsea attacker ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline.

As per Football Insider, both Sunderland and Everton are interested in signing winger Tyrique George before the window slams shut on Monday.
It is claimed that both the Black Cats and the Toffees are exploring a last minute move to sign the Englishman, who has only made 11 appearances across all competitions so far this term.
George is one of a number of players to have progressed from the Blues’ Cobham academy into the first team in recent seasons, although he has struggled to feature regularly this term.
In total the 19-year-old has made 37 appearances for Chelsea but, after a breakthrough campaign last season, the winger’s progress has somewhat stalled this term.
George is under contract at Stamford Bridge until the end of the 2026/27 campaign, but the report suggests that he could leave the club on Monday.
