Thomas Tuchel had every right to be extremely disappointed following Chelsea's defeat to Arsenal on Wednesday evening. The Blues were beaten by their London rivals to bring to an end their three-match winning streak going into the clash.

"We scored five goals and lost 4-2. That's easy," a furious Tuchel said to the Sky Sports cameras following the 4-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge. "Three own goals, two regular goals for us and one for Arsenal. That makes it 4-2."

11 goals conceded in their last three home matches. Eleven. That's unheard of for Chelsea. Especially Chelsea under Tuchel.

Antonio Rudiger missed Wednesday's defeat with a groin injury, Tuchel confirmed before the match, while Thiago Silva was named on the bench, with the Chelsea head coach hoping to hand the 37-year-old defender a rest. That was not the case, though, as the Blues conceded two in the first half and Silva was brought on at the break.

This was not part of Tuchel's plan. He thought a back-three of Andreas Christensen, Reece James and Malang Sarr was enough to keep Arsenal out. It was not. In fact, two out of the three defenders had nightmares at the Bridge.

Christensen had a blunder for the first goal of the match, with his under-hit pass allowing Eddie Nketiah to run through one-on-one and slot the ball past Edouard Mendy.
