Chelsea FC suffered another awful setback today in this their nightmare 2015-16 Premier League season. The Blues lost 2-1 at West Ham United in a match that had both manager Jose Mourinho and midfielder Nemanja Matic sent off. Chelsea is now the number one trending term in the United States on Twitter, and again it’s social media users reveling in their latest failure.
West Ham is currently the third highest trend with Mourinho number eight. Andy Carroll has fluctuated within the top ten as well.
Here are some of the more interesting and entertaining examples of Chelsea FC schadenfreude.

Will Chelsea FC sack Jose Mourinho? The rumors are certainly starting up again. The Blues will soon be in serious danger of missing out on the top four.
