Romelu Lukaku 'bullies everyone he comes up against', hails Reece James as Chelsea beat Arsenal

Chelsea defender Reece James was full of praise for team-mate Romelu Lukaku after his dominant performance against Arsenal and says the Belgian 'bullies everyone he comes up against'.

Lukaku made his first appearance for the Blues since his club-record £97.5million move from Inter Milan and he led them to a comfortable 2-0 victory against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

It took the 28-year-old just 15 minutes to re-open his goal-scoring account for Chelsea and he was also influential in the second goal - as he gave Arsenal's Pablo Mari an afternoon to forget.
