Dom The match today was hideous and uncultured and there have been too many games like that this season

🤣

This would be an incredible TripAdvisor review.

If I didn’t know the result and logged on here, I’d have thought we dropped points.

We beat Chelsea without breaking out of first gear. It wasn’t vintage but was one of the easiest games we’ve had all season.

    daredevil if came back from the international space station after nine months, and went through all the comments about the team from this season’s matches you would be forgiven for thinking we are in a relegation scrap with United and Spurs

    This was a good victory. Especially when you consider how rough Chelsea were. They came to beat us up, and this version of Arsenal doesn’t wilt under physical pressure. Rice, Timber, Gabriel, Saliba, Partey, Merino. Units.

      Claudius -- I'd even add Odegaard now.

      He's much leaner now, and has accepted the physicality of the game. Not to say he won't get hurt, but he isn't bothered by games like this compared to two seasons ago (when he noticeably shied away against a physical Liverpool).

      Burnwinter he wasn’t hired for his football history knowledge. Probably also dazed from running around with Rice who always looks bigger, fitter, stronger than anyone else on the field

      this was definitely one of the games of all time

      lorddulaarsenal Based on that it's a rare but not unknown instance of a footballer's transfer fee exceeding his IQ. Not gonna compile a complete list in case someone gets upset I put Darwin on it

        Burnwinter I missed the match but seen a few comments on social media from Chelsea fans who seem to think the match is somehow a reflection of how closely matched the teams are.

        Apart from Reiss Nelson not a single player from 7 years ago still plays for us....
