Arsenal managed to equalize after Cole Palmer and Mykhailo Mudryk scored their first goals at Stamford Bridge, erasing their commanding lead.
After scoring against Arsenal yesterday, this was what Cole Palmer said after the game;
“We’re obviously very disappointed not to get the three points but Arsenal are a very good side and one of the best teams in the league. We went toe-to-toe with them.
“I try to show the manager every day in training what I can do – work hard and try and repay him because he puts a lot of faith in me. I’m loving it at Chelsea. Every day is good even off the pitch with the lads. There is a good vibe and everything is good.
“And there are still a lot of areas we can improve on but as I said we went toe-to-toe. We’re going in the right direction and there is more to come.” “He might have meant it [Mykhailo Mudryk’s goal] – I don’t know. If he meant it, fair play to him.”
