The first heavyweight encounter of the Premier League season was previewed in some quarters as the immovable object versus the irresistible force. Chelsea have been fun and free-scoring under Xabi Alonso.
Yet that overlooked something pretty fundamental. The percussive force of Arsenal’s game when they have the ball and want to make something happen.
Chelsea landed a significant blow after 77 seconds when Morgan Rogers put them in front with nicely executed volley from the edge of the area. It was not only the first goal that Arsenal have conceded this season but one with rich narrative strands.
