Completely nullified their midfield with a few quick passes, then took the defence out with a sublime ball, beautiful football.

That's one of my biggest issues with Arteta, he seems terrified to try new things. If he stumbles onto something that works (like lacazette's dropping deep role) he sticks to it and never tries anything new unless he's forced too.
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst, at least it's a slightly weaker Chelsea side.

Can only assume Ramsdale was blocked by Holding there, even with the deflection it looked poor.
Not great from Xhaka either.

Mount a lucky boy, straight leg and studs up, not even a booking of course.

Nah he's alright, just young and very low on confidence, he kept Tierney out the side earlier on in the season after he (Tierney) returned from injury. Desperately needs some coaching and guidance.

He's also 23 which is incredibly young for a GK, the other 'top' keepers in the league are all either entering their peak (Ederson, Alisson, Mendy) or coming to the end of it (Lloris, DDG). Young players have patchy form and he's clearly going through a rough patch, he's been poor for a couple of months but he's still had a very solid debut season.
