Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have played out a draw with Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea in the London derby.
The Premier League match between Arsenal and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in London on Saturday evening ended in a 2-2 draw
Cole Palmer put Chelsea in the lead in the 15th minute.
Mykhailo Mudryk doubled the advantage for the Blues in the 48th minute.
Declan Rice halved the deficit for Arsenal in the 77th minute.
And then on 84 minutes, Leandro Trossard made it 2-2.
Despite the result, Arsenal cannot hide the fact that it was a disappointing performance from them.
David Raya disappoints for Arsenal vs Chelsea
One of the players who did not have a good game was David Raya.
The Spanish goalkeeper was at fault for the goal that Mykhailo Mudryk scored.
He was off his line.
The 28-year-old almost gave away another goal to Chelsea just a few minutes later.
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville was following the match for Sky Sports Premier League.
Neville was on co-commentary duty for the match, and he was not impressed with Raya.
Neville said in the 49th minute (6:37pm): “His position, Raya, is not good enough.
“Far too far forward.
“That is not good from the Arsenal goalkeeper.”
David Raya out, Aaron Ramsdale in
In my opinion, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta needs to bring Aaron Ramsdale back into the team.
When Arteta decided to drop Ramsdale from the starting lineup and bring David Raya into the fold, it was not because of any mistake that the England international goalkeeper had made.
It was because Arteta thought that Raya was better than Ramsdale for the way Arsenal played their football.
Raya, signed from Brentford in the summer transfer window, has now made a mistake.
I believe that Ramsdale should be given back his place in the Arsenal goal.
