The Blues suffered their first Potter-era home defeat against Arsenal.
Chelsea manager Graham Potter said Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka was not the kind of player who likes to “dive in”.
Most recently, Chelsea were defeated by Arsenal 1-0 in the fifteenth week of the English Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Sunday (6/11).
There was an incident in the match where Potter and Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta got into a fight after Saka fell after being tackled by Marc Cucurella.
“I think there is a somewhat controversial action [dari Bukayo Saka]”Potter said during the post-match press conference.
“But I don’t think he’s that kind of player,” said the former Brighton manager.
“I’ve been here for eight weeks and a lot has happened. We have a lot of things to deal with and I’m sure if you look at the history of Arsenal, where it is now and compare it with that of a few years ago.”
With this result, Chelsea have failed to win in their last four Premier League games [dua hasil imbang dan dua kekalahan].
The Blues are scattered in seventh place in the standings with a collection of 21 points. Meanwhile, Arsenal have not been rocked to the top of the table with 34 points.
