I'm very happy to see Chelsea has showed some improvements in this game. Unlike last season, when we always lost to Arsenal, we did better by getting a draw.

The first half was so awful, though, second half a bit better and we desperately want to win the game. But we once again lost three points due our goalie.

Our goalie looked like dead wood when he tried to block Martinelli's shot. He was a liability to us. But, i was happy neto saved us with his superb shoot.

A draw is fair. We buried Arsenal's title hopes and at least we don't lose against them. RIP to the Arsenal's title challenge.

Chelsea was able to draw with Arsenal 2-2 even last season, but they lost 5:0 at the Emirates in the second leg. Chelsea's defense is stronger this season than it was the previous one, allowing every opponent to get past them and score goals. It's great to see Chelsea back to their best form this season, it's been a while since we've seen them play at their best level. I was sure Chelsea wouldn't lose because Arsenal has developed into a team that opponents are comfortable playing against, since Arsenal appears to be so weak, I'm not sure if any team will be scared to play them in the Premier League right now
However, Chelsea was abe to draw since one point earned is better than losing the whole point, and they are still in the top four as a result of their draw against Arsenal. Arsenal is no longer in the running for the Premier League title this season, they are nine points from the top of the table, and I don't think Liverpool, who are beating the other teams, will lose nine points before the season end, and Manchester City is still in the running for the trophy.

The result goes to show how much Chelsea's squad have developed under Enzo Maresca and how defiant the Chelsea team is becoming this season, unlike last season when arsenal dominated Chelsea all through the season. The result was a good result for both Chelsea and Arsenal as they both couldn't have settled for anything less because both teams were very cautious of their defence and didn't give the opponent the chance on goal, but it still doesn't mean that Arsenal's title hopes has ended, we still have a long way to go and there are still many games left to play especially during the return legs where arsenal would have the opportunity to close the gap on Manchester city, Liverpool or whoever could be at the top before the end of the season.
