Fans react as Tammy Abraham double seals gets Chelsea back to winning ways

Tammy Abraham was the hero for Chelsea as they got back to winning ways against West Ham United on Monday night.

The Blues went into the match on the back of two successive Premier League defeats. While we may have lost ground in the title chase, the victory has saved us from falling even further.

Abraham’s quickfire brace in the second half ensured Stamford Bridge was a happy place going into Christmas.

With Timo Werner going through a goal drought and Olivier Giroud in amongst the goals, Abraham had been sidelined from the spotlight of late.

Yesterday’s performance was a reminder of exactly what the striker can do on his given day. With a busy festive season to negotiate, the Blues will need all the help they can get.
