Mikel Arteta rolled out a slightly unexpected lineup. First, Lokonga returned to the jar, and a mummy was reborn from a dusty cabinet (long live El Neni). Secondly, the defense was not without permutations. At the start, Holding came out with White and Gabriel, but Arteta was not at all going to play in the center three. Ben took the right-back position, Tavares came out on the left. Lacazette, after an illness, did not spend a single training session with the team, so Nketia came out on top. Another important change worth noting is the appearance of Smith-Row at the start – Martinelli came out only in the second half. The game itself is pure fun. Teams scored four goals already in the first half hour. In the first half, that some, that others played yard bay-runs. Defensively, it was a nightmare, but it was fun. Nketiah’s first goal is deja vu. Think back to the end of last season when Arsenal arrived at Stamford Bridge in terrible shape. Everyone was waiting for a failure, and then we pulled up the opponent. The personification of that match is the bringing of Jorginho (an unsuccessful pass back). Today, the path to Arsenal’s recovery began precisely with the joint of a Chelsea player.Details regarding the situation
The reply arrived almost immediately. And again, nonsense. Werner can’t get into the goal from a couple of meters, but here he suddenly decided to charge a longshot for fun. Ramsdale did not expect this from Timo, so he stood stupidly in the center of the frame. The ball dived into the near one, hitting Jake’s leg along the way. Granit realized that he was not to blame, but out of habit he went to correct himself. After kipish in Arsenal’s penalty area, Xhaka picked up the ball and did not act in the best traditions of Tavares – hit forward. Our Albanian calmly assessed the situation, got out of pressure on dribbling, simultaneously checking the opponent’s point, and began the attack of the team. Then there are the dizzying performances of Sack and the billiard room from Smith Row. You will not believe it, but the answer arrived almost immediately. After the fuss on the flank and the fall of White, the boys in blue took possession of the ball. While the Arsenal players waved their hands and shouted at the referee, the Chelsea players rolled the second one.
