West Ham United got the new season started on the absolute wrong foot. They fell 3-0 to newly promoted Sunderland, in a result that truly was as bad as that sounds. Hammers boss Graham Potter didn’t have the summer transfer window that he wanted, nor the kind of preseason that he might have hoped for. Now opening day didn’t go the way that he would have liked either. Welcoming in Chelsea FC is not the way to get right either.
After all, the Blues are the “world champions.” Yes, it’s debatable how serious we should have taken the Club World Cup, but they did win it.

So they are in fact, reigning “world champs.” Potter and company better bring their A game for this one.
