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.

Risky but smart way to defend set pieces.

Chelsea left three players up by halfway during Arsenal corners, forcing Arsenal to keep three players back. It reduced congestion in the box, gave the GK space to claim crosses, and created counterattack opportunities. Smart way to defend those corners.

Agree with Vince here? 👀

Rock Solid.
