Chelsea again fell short when tested against top opposition in the Premier League following a 5-0 defeat to Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal at the Emirates. The Blues were up against it straight away after Leandro Trossard scored in the fourth minute to give Arsenal the lead, and set the tone for the game. 

The Gunners then had 14 shots in search of the second goal, but the Blue's backline held on until the second half when Ben White scored to make it 2-0 and take the game from the visitors. There wasn’t a long wait for the third and fourth goals after that, with former Chelsea forward Kai Havertz helping himself to two quick-fire goals. Making it 4-0.

Chelsea came into this London derby without a clean sheet in their last 13 away games, but Arsenal looked more hungry, balanced and determined. Winning the 50/50 duals and forcing their rivals into submission. 

By the time Arsenal full-back White would get his second of the night and Arsenal’s fifth, the game had been truly home and dry with most of the Chelsea players counting down the seconds and looking forward to the referee blowing his final whistle. 

The last time Chelsea played in the league they scored six against Everton at Stamford Bridge, here at the Emirates they were in danger of suffering the same fate with 20 minutes to go. 

Declan Rice came close to a sixth for his side, and Pochettino made changes to close out the game even though Arsenal went home with three points and their highest win against in the Premier League.
