With Cucu on card, we must cover him better. Thats calls for Santos substitution. With the number of balls Joao Pedro loses ill sacrifice him for Santos and Keep Estevao Threat and Maintain Pedro Neto workrate

#INGAME

Of course you later add Palmer in Estevaos Place

Stupid stupid reasoning from Caicedo. There is VAR ffs no need to be so stupidly aggressive in that sequence. i hate this side of him. There’s so much to be played, he faked an injury too he immediately knew he was in trouble

We used their own weapon against them

Before the weekend, only Arsenal had scored more set-piece goals than Chelsea. With Trevoh Chalobah’s header, Chelsea have now scored 10 set-piece goals this season, which is just one less than their total for the whole of last season.

Reece James has been so class

Maresca making attacking subs and not going defensive has made me love him more. He’s learning from past mistakes

#INGAME

When Saka was turning in with Caicedo on, he'd meet another wall. Now when he cuts in he finds space

I AM SO PROUD OF THIS TEAM

This game was for the taking, Arsenal in away games aren’t as deadly. 2 points dropped

Caicedo misses next three games for aggressive foul play

Yeah, their open play is so weak. They tried to copy Pep but you can't ever copy someone and be just as good.

#FULLTIME

Maresca is a crazy coach with crazy ideas. He brought in attackers to pin them back. If this is the best team in the league, they should pray that they don't drop points in their coming matches. We will eat them for breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

We are a special team with a special coach

Chelsea had more shots with 10 men in a half (6) than City had against Arsenal in 90 minutes (5.)

Sanchez is too good with this shot stopping thing. Crazy reflexes. He’s equally good in the air too

Chelsea also limited Arsenal to the fewest shots in a game in any competition this season (8).

This redemption arc is one of the most enjoyable I have ever seen

Reece James is the 7th different Chelsea player to be directly involved in 5+ goals across all competitions this season. ⚽️🅰️

Sharing the load. 🤝

We’re heading into the scariest month to be a Chelsea fan (December)

These were the results in December last year. Hopefully the squad is up to the task this year

When Maresca initially mentioned that he saw James as a midfielder and played him there, a lot of scepticism was directed toward that decision.

Over the past months, Maresca has kept using him in that same position in certain games where he wants more defensive coverage.

Safe to say that Maresca has not only been proved right but it's been very effective. James' performances in midfield have been crucial to many of Chelsea's biggest wins in 2025.
