Chelsea recorded just five shots today. It's their lowest total in a Premier League match this season.

Chelsea have also lost three home games in a row to Arsenal for the first time since 1974.

Chelsea’s long-term commitment to Graham Potter means he will not automatically face the sack if they miss out on the top four

Chelsea's minimum aim is to finish inside the Premier League top four this season. However, if that is not achieved it is not a deal-breaker, with the ownership group prepared to 'stick through' difficult moments if they believe in their long-term plan.

Graham Potter on Arsenal defeat:

"We have to look at where the two teams are at, Arsenal are in a good moment, and have worked together for a long time and we're in different phase. We tried to make it more of a London derby."

"We lacked quality, but the effort was there and we were beaten by the better team today. It was not a great goal from our perspective, we defended those moments quite well."

"We didn't function as fluently as we would like. There are always two teams on the pitch, and you have to understand where they're from, and look at where they are at."

Graham Potter:

"We huffed and puffed but you could see the difference between the teams in confidence and structure. As much as it isn't nice to say, Arsenal deserved to win the game overall. So we have to take that and use it as motivation to improve."

"Clearly confidence is higher. They've [Arsenal] got the points, a really good start and have been working for three years or so. We're at the start of the process and have had some injuries to key players they've managed to stay clear off."

Graham Potter on not creating enough chances:

"There are two teams on the pitch and Arsenal defend well and press well. That's what the top teams do and Arsenal at the moment are a top team. I don't like to say that but it's the reality."

Graham Potter on Mason Mount looking tired:

"We looked at the game from a training perspective and Mason likes to be playing games. Always, you can reflect after the game and make a different decision."

Graham Potter on World Cup coming at a good time:

"We've had a bit of a perfect storm in terms of lots of games and injuries along the way. We have to focus on how we can improve the team and as you can see today, there is a lot of work today."

"I've been here eight weeks & a lot has happened and we've had a lot to deal with. If you look at the Arsenal story to where they were two years ago, it was slightly different. Mikel was getting pelters. That's the life, that's the difference."

Everyone saw this horrible performance coming let’s not pretend, how low we’ve become in the past year is mind blowing. bin all the players and start everything from the scratch, we don’t look like a team to improve. Every Chelsea player today was bad including that manager as well.

ℹ️@ChelseaAnalysis

We have lost 4 games already this season before December, We lost a total of 6 games the whole of last season, We have massively regressed.

FACTS!

Gabriel Jesus debate is interesting, his pressing,close control & link play is key to Arteta’s style of play. And then you compare to how the technical level of Chelsea’s attack can’t create/make the ball stick.And you see Jesus’ value.

On Sterling ;
We signed the wrong dude ..it's either he's low on confidence due to the world-cup or he's just downgrading

ℹ️ @ChelseaAnalysis

There is a direct correlation between Hazard's departure from the club and our shocking home form in games against the T6.

We all know its been dire but when you put the results side by side - my word - the fall from grace is ridiculous.

UCL run predictions?

🇧🇷 Thiago Silva made more successful attacking third passes (7/10) than any other Chelsea player in the first 45 minutes against Arsenal.

A centre-back should not be leading this stat.

ℹ️ @ChelseaAnalysis

The fact we have no players who can dribble or carry the ball in the final third places such a big strain on our possession play.

Our lack of on-ball running means we (almost always) have to rely on outside passes and one-touch interplay to enter the box, making us predictable.

Our lack of athleticism in the back 5 means we will be forced into sequences where we defend super deep. Not having dribblers/carriers means we can't get out that pressure easily.

A huge explainer as to why we have 10-20 minute periods in games where we can't do anything right.

ℹ️ @ChelseaAnalysis

Since Chelsea hit top spot in the Premier League at end of November last year, until the point that Thomas Tuchel was sacked after 6 games of this season. Points:

Man City - 75
Liverpool - 70
Tottenham - 63
Arsenal - 61
Chelsea - 51

30 league games were played in this period

ℹ️ @ChelseaAnalysis

Next game vs Man City(A) Carabao!
Wednesday at Etihad Stadium

My confidence is on the floor to be honest, we’re gonna be torn apart
