West Ham lost the London derby against Chelsea 2-1 at Stamford bridge in their first Premier League game of the season.
Gokhan Tore made his debut for the Hammers after joining on a one-year loan from Besiktas over the summer.
We took a look at how fans reacted to Tore’s display on social media.
Tore was of course a Chelsea youngster having joined the club aged 17 and coincidently marked his return to the Premier League after a five-year gap against his former side.

Tore came on for Andre Ayew on 34 minutes after the Ghana international. The 24-year-old had himself only just recovered from an injury and looked a little rusty.
Feel for AC, up there by himself. Valencia is toxic, he's got to go. This Gokhan Tore doesn't look fit enough for 5 a side. Payet on please.

Tore did not exactly get a glowing review form the West Ham faithful.
Gokhan Tore can't be arsed

His work ethic came under fire.
Work ethic 0 from West Ham! Gokhan Tore has come on and walked everywhere

Tore lacked match fitness which is no surprise considering he has played just a few minutes of pre-season football over the summer.
Believe me when I say Gokhan Tore is so far out of his depth in this league. He's been on for half hour and he's struggling to move.

Ouch!
Gokhan Tore is genuinely awful.

He even has a new nickname!
Gokhan Toreible.

Well that is pretty harsh.
Can't think of a worse West Ham debut either, than the one Gokhan Tore is having

Maybe a slight exaggeration.
David Gold>Gokhan Tore

Pretty harsh! sure he did not put on a man of the match display but he did not exactly have a stinker. We can think of a few other West Ham players far more deserving of criticism.
Gokhan Tore looks like a League 2 player. Lost.

Well at least there were a few fans who saw something in Tore.
Gokhan tore is so quick great work rate

Gokhan Tore plays half a game of English football and he's written off already? ?

@Turkish_Futbol Didn't think he was particularly awful. World not set alight but not awful.
