Bitter DG savages Chelsea striker

Bitter David Gold has made no attempt to disguise his deep disappointment at being beaten by a Diego Costa goal…of all people!

Hardly surprisingly the striker’s boss Antonio Conte defended the player despite TV replays showing him dragging his studs down Adrian’s shins and across his ankle.

The horrible ‘challenge’ has been slammed by every  pundit as a sending off offence  and there is no question the 27 year old Spain international was guilty of a disgusting foul which went unpunished by far too lenient ref Anthony Taylor .

And the Hammers co-chairman made no secret of his disgust at the striker’s antics when discussing last night’s 2-1 defeat.

Speaking on Twitter he declared: “Losing to a late goal by a player that should not have been on the pitch is hard to take.”

However, he was delighted with the club’s new £6 million signing left back Arthur Masuaku commenting that he” looked a good player.”dg
