Collison insists West Ham can shock Chelsea

West Ham United midfielder Jack Collison insists they can shock Chelsea this weekend.

West Ham are sitting second from bottom in the table after Tuesday's dismal 3-1 loss at fellow strugglers Bolton.

But Collison, 21, said: "We're disappointed with the Bolton result and you are going to get a few angry players out there looking to put in a real performance.

"And what better place to start than against Chelsea, a massive local derby in front of your own fans?

"It's a game we're looking forward to and hope to take something out of it, which would give us and the fans a massive boost."

Collison added: "It's up to us to turn things around and change people's opinions and show we are good enough to start pushing up the table and stay in the league."
