Chelsea 3-2 Arsenal: How it happened

We suffered a late defeat at Stamford Bridge on Saturday to leave Unai Emery still looking for his first points in charge.

The winning goal came nine minutes from time, undoing all the good work from a pulsating opening 45 minutes, when we struck twice in four minutes to level up after a disastrous start.

The first half was non-stop action. Chelsea began positively in their first home game of the season, and were soon a goal to the good. The gaps in our defence were far too big, as Marcos Alonso burst free on the left and fed the ball into an unmarked Pedro to slot home.
