Poor performance by CFC. Not enough threat in attack. some dumb play as exemplified by Luiz's RC.. smh!!
Morata has to improve massively to be a focal point for our attack. Very poor today. Conte didn't do a good job with tactics and quick subs either. He was reactionary. Why leave Morata on for so long only to sub him out when we were 1 man down.

Major props to the Lads .... True Band of Brothers performance :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Wenger grow some balls and see you don't need this Parasite

Another day, another declaration of Ozil's name. Not a day goes by, the love doesn't drip thru from your utterances. Buy another jersey and keep quiet.

Conte gave away 2 points with the personnel that started the game. Cahill should not start any PL game ahead of Rudiger any more.
Baka should always start when fit.

Very proud of my team today. The boys put in a solid shift. The much-derided combo of xhaka and Ramsey were immense. Kudos to Arsene and the boys. Now keep this discipline and commitment going.

A note of credit to Alex Iwobi who showed solid signs of progress in his comeback from injury.

This performance and discipline will get this team into the top 4 assuming he doesn't freak out and tinker again. Play to your teams strength and not forcing changes to accommodate some players.

good game, but I have a feeling Conte respects Arsenal too much for his own good.

Maybe it is credit to Arsenal, but it appears to me that Chelsea under Conte kind of plays with caution when playing Arsenal.

Good game overall. Only watched second half. Kola is a solid addition. Mustafi and Kos played well together. Monreal has always been a solid contributor, though he can make poor decisions sometimes (a few of them every game). El Neny looked a step slower than everyone when he came in.

Hazard caused some headaches for our defensive mids, resulting in a couple of yellow cards.

Everyone in their position. Disciplined. Strong performance.

Only one sour note, Welbeck who is probably out for an extended period again if the look on his face was anything to go by.

Conte is one hell of a stubborn coach what a useless line up today these coaches get confused atimes with selection of players how do you bench bakayoko and replace marvelous Rudiger with that overhype English defender called Cahill

You mean the welcome to EPL 3-0 was a cause for the PTSD he is exhibiting? :D

Looks like Wenger vs. Conte is in favour of the Arsenal manager.

I hope that was just a groin strain. But knowing him, I fear for the result.
I for some reason thought the discipline and resolve I saw today in the first especially may not have been there if Sanchez started. His use of the ball makes for a different reaction from those around him. Today Everyman had a job and none relinquished their post especially in half one.
