PLAYER RATINGS: Lukasz Fabianski keeps West Ham in the game with a series of superb stops, while Nayef Aguerd handles Chelsea's attacking talent ably... but is it time for the Blues to start worrying about Marc Cucurella?

West Ham and Chelsea played out an exciting 1-1 draw that did little to benefit either sides ambitions in the Premier League this season.

Former Chelsea man Emerson Palmieri's goal cancelled out Joao Felix's opener after the visitors had spurned a host of chances to double their advantage including having a number of strikes ruled out for offside.

West Ham thought they had won it late on through Tomas Soucek but Declan Rice was - rightly - adjudged to have strayed offside when the free-kick was swung in.

Chelsea felt they were denied a penalty when Conor Gallagher's shot struck the arm of Soucek before rolling through to Lukasz Fabianski

A third draw in a row for Chelsea leaves them ninth in the table, while West Ham climbed to 15th.
