West Ham United may have lost four games in a row, but that has not stopped Manuel Pellegrini granting the players a holiday.

As per The Telegraph, Pellegrini has flown back to Chile during the international break.

And Angelo Ogbonna has posted on social media from Naples in Italy as he returns to his homeland to see his family.

Rather than spend time on the training ground and rectify the poor start to the season, Pellegrini has opted to spend time with his family in Chile.

With only four Hammers on international duty (Marko Arnautovic, Lukasz Fabianski, Robert Snodgrass and Andriy Yarmolenko), the rest of the players will be without their manager during the break.

Some West Ham fans felt aggrieved by this as they wanted to see the players working hard to turn things around but others argued that he should be allowed to see his family.

Here is some reaction to Pellegrini’s decision to return to Chile.
