Felipe Anderson dugout row with Manuel Pellegrini after West Ham star hauled off in Chelsea game

FELIPE ANDERSON was involved in a blazing row with manager Manuel Pellegrini on the bench as West Ham took on Chelsea.

The 42million Brazilian was fuming after he was substituted as the Hammers desperately clung on to beat Chelsea 1-0 at Stamford Bridge.

Felipe Anderson exchanges words with Manuel Pellegrini as he was substituted at Chelsea

It was the third successive game in which West Ham’s record signing has been substituted as he struggles for form this season.

And the 26-year-old snapped as he was dragged off once again as Pellegrini decided to tighten up his team as they defended their lead.

Anderson exchanged angry words with his manager as he walked to the touchline, clearly angry to have been hooked again.

Pellegrini responded by delivering a verbal volley of his own to let his player know who was boss.

But Anderson continued ranting and gesticulating angrily towards his manager as he took his seat on the bench alongside his team-mates.

The spat still couldn’t overshadow a much improved display from West Ham as they ended a seven-match run without a win by beating their London rivals.
