Chelsea No2 Ray Wilkins was delighted with Michael Essien's brace in victory over West Ham United.
Essien celebrated the goals with Wilkins.
And the coach told chelseafc.com: "I've been telling him for a while that he is allowed to score, he and John Obi I keep telling. When John hit the bar I told him that's only to keep the net up, so he had a little flea in his ear as well.
"I've been telling him a while so it was good to see him score."
