Chelsea FC were on Saturday molested and mauled by Arsenal FC in the premier league.

The Gooners humiliated their opponents with a superb display in the first half, netting three goals.

Alexis Sanchez snapped on an error by Gary Cahill to loop the ball into the net in the 11th minute and Theo Walcott completed a brilliant move to steer in Hector Bellerin's pass three minutes later. Mesut Ozil then put the final nail in after exchanging a slick pass with Sanchez.

Speaking after the game, Chelsea manager Antonio Conte, said:

"I think that we didn't have the right attitude from the first minute.

"After today we are thinking we must work a lot because we are a great team only on paper. It is always a team problem rather than individuals, When nothing works it is very hard for a player to play well.

"I don't want to talk about the mistake [from Gary Cahill]. It is not right for the player. We win and lose as a team. If someone thinks this team is ready to fight, I think we must wait to improve a lot to come back a great team on the pitch, not just on paper.

"We have not got the balance and now is the moment to consider everything. It is incredible to concede three goals. We must have last season present in our mind to not repeat the mistakes. We must reflect a lot to find very soon the right way."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said: "It was an outstanding team performance. We played with spirit and collective pace and movement, always in a positive and committed team way.

"Our defenders have done extremely well. You cannot say one player was not at the right level from Petr Cech to Alexis Sanchez.

"We wanted to start strong in a high pace and committed way. We started wobbly in the first 20 minutes against Southampton. We wanted to be consistent in our pressure no matter the score. We did it very well in the first half. It was in and out in the second, which was understandable.

"Ideally you want the perfect game and you never get it. We got nearly the perfect first half and that is not bad. Football doesn't care for history and the anniversaries, just the result on the day. Today we had a good performance."
