Chris Sutton and Cesc Fabregas agree on Chelsea 'car crash' as Frank Lampard tactics slammed

Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton has agreed with Cesc Fabregas in questioning the Blues' tactics after their defeat against Arsenal on Tuesday night. The Blues were outclassed with Jamie Carragher describing the game like 'watching the Gunners in a training session' as they eased to a 3-1 victory.

Martin Odegaard scored twice in the opening 30 minutes before Gabriel Jesus added a third goal in the first-half as Chelsea risked being on the end of a drubbing at the Emirates Stadium. Mikel Arteta's side took their foot off the gas in the second-half and a momentary lapse of concentration from Oleksandr Zinchenko allowed Noni Madueke in to score his first goal for the Blues - but it was only a consolation on a poor night for Frank Lampard's side.

The caretaker manager shuffled his pack, bringing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang into the side in one of a number of changes. It didn't have the desired impact on the performance or result, though, as Aubameyang was hooked off at half-time after having just nine touches in 45 minutes - much to the delight of the Gunners' faithful.
