Half Time Chelsea 2 Arsenal 2

It is hard to understand what I have just watched.

There have been some dazzling individual performances but Arsenal still have no idea how to defend.

This is a long standing problem that Unai Emery has to fix using some magic formula that none of the pundits seem to know or understand.

Chelsea were dominant in the early exchanges and took a two nil lead with goals from Pedro and Morata. They could have had more.

Something then snapped in the Chelsea formation. Arsenal scored two goals and missed three much easier open goals. Mkhitaryan and Iwobi got the goals.

Shooting practice is required for Aubameyang, Mkhitaryan and Iwobi as they each missed from a position that it would have been easier to score. Sky shots.

So with Chelsea running the show they went 2-0 up then took their foot off the gas. Arsenal could have had 5 in reply but only managed to put two in the onion bag.

I hope that the second half contains the same level of entertainment.
