Chelsea update

Arteta: "Disappointed obviously with not getting the three points against 10 men. A really tough one. Two teams that play with a lot of intensity and aggression, you could sense it in every tackle.

The game settled and after the red card, we needed to settle and make the judgement but we conceded a foul and a goal. Two top teams fighting for the Premier League so it's normal."

Enzo Maresca on whether Reece James can play another 90 minutes against Leeds:

“No, it is a no, the reality is no. It was a fantastic performance, but we need to manage.”

Enzo Maresca delivered a tactical masterclass tonight.

He controlled the game, nullified Arsenal’s patterns and forced Arteta into reactive football. Even after going down to ten men for nearly an hour, Chelsea stayed compact, disciplined and dangerous on transitions.

Arteta was outcoached.
Maresca’s structure made the difference.
Maresca embarrassed Arteta.

Reese James is playing like the legendary Rick James on stage. The "high man" should be tested for g***a after this match 😁.
And seriously I have said this before and I will still repeat it fully fit of Reece James is 4 times of jurien timber

🚨Chelsea fans:

“There’s only one Robert Sanchez, one Robert Sanchez, he used to be sh*t, now he’s alright, walking in a Sanchez wonderland” 🎶

Gary Cahill: "Chalobah is probably the most underappreciated player at Chelsea. he's a bit of an unsung hero. look at the job he has been doing. I worked with him when he was young, and he's got a great attitude.

He's been put on loan, thinking that maybe he's not needed at the club. But you see his attitude when he comes back into the team and rolls his sleeves up, now he is starting in huge games for Chelsea and performing very well."

Dortmumd boss, Niko Kovac: “Nowadays, defenders always want to build up the game, but sometimes you need to focus on your core skill; defending. Anselmino is a true professional, and performing his job with dedication and passion. He is a very calm guy, which is not usually conceivable for an Argentine. I've played against a lot of them in my career and they're usually hotheads.”
