Chelsea supporters have questioned Graham Potter's decision to start Ruben Loftus-Cheek and leave Mateo Kovacic and Denis Zakaria on the bench against Arsenal for today's crunch Premier League clash.
Loftus-Cheek was named in the starting XI alongside Mason Mount and Jorginho in midfield, replacing midweek's match-winner Zakaria. There were two other changes from the side that defeated Dinamo Zagreb with Thiago Silva replacing Kalidou Koulibaly and Marc Cucurella in for the injured Ben Chilwell.
Kovacic and Zakaria were both named on the bench, alongside Koulibaly, Conor Gallagher, Christian Pulisic and Armando Broja. There was also a place for former Gunners striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in attack - his first appearance against Mikel Arteta's side since leaving earlier this year.
