Both teams really impressed me in this match and how the match ended was really okay to me. Arsenal are on form and ought to have won that match without much stress looking from how Chelsea have been playing in the league which is not impressive. Chelsea was also able to take advantage of their home and slow lagging behind from Arsenal in the first half of the game. With the performance of Chelsea in that match, we might be seeing a new Chelsea team that are very active ready for the task ahead of them. If Chelsea can continue this form, they will have a much better opportunity to finish in the first half of the table. If Chelsea are back to their top form, we will be witnessing a more interesting season in the premier league once more where the matches are unpredictable until the final moments of the league.

This was a match between two of the Premier League's top teams and what happened wasn't really surprising, but Chelsea did come as a bit of a surprise because before the match they really weren't favorites, in fact a lot of people doubted them.
In this match, where the final result was the same 2-2, both teams showed their quality, Arsenal were able to recover after being 2 goals behind and Chelsea appeared very impressive in this match.

With this result, can it now be said that Chelsea have recovered this season?
In my opinion, it's clear, yes, and Chelsea have now found their best form and they are worth watching out for.
The positive results they continue to achieve will certainly improve the Chelsea team's confidence and this will continue into their next match.

Nobody including me, had given any chance to Chelsea in this match. But they have definitely proved that they are still not absolutely down and out. They had actually scored the first two goals of the match. Arsenal had to make a comeback to get one point away from this match which was quite surprising to me. Now the sports Arsenal on the second position of the table because of goal difference. This is certainly a very positive result for Chelsea because of how they have performed so far.

@abhiseshakana as a Red devil’s fan I’m glad that we secured those 3 vital points but we didn’t win it convincingly against the worst team in the premier league so that’s an concern for me. Lastly Maguire had a good outing yesterday and it’ll be interesting if Ten Hag decides to play him more often but he could even regret his decision to play Maguire as the next two fixtures are the champions league match and a match against City.

The win that Man United got against Sheffield United was not a convincing victory and they had to get it with great pain but still, without a good rhythm, I don't think Man United will be able to get that win. Even if you think about it, Man United should be able to get more than 2 goals. What is clear is that they had 2 good opportunities but both had to hit the crossbar.

Maguire has a bad past and is often seen as a defender who often makes mistakes, but this season Maguire seems to have improved and his performance is quite good. So that should be a strong reason for Ten Hag to continue playing Maguire as a starter. Moreover, Martinez is currently injured and Varane has not yet returned to his best performance.

Manchester United was supposed to win this match easily. The fact that they actually were not able to keep a clean sheet is pretty bad in my opinion. Because remember, Sheffield United did not have a single win in this season. They still don’t have a win by the way. I hate to say it, but the performance from Harry Maguire was actually pretty decent in this match. But I think it is just a one-off performance. He will be making some mistakes again. In the next match, Manchester United is going to play against Manchester City.

Good luck
