This emphatic win has propelled Arsenal three points at the Premier League table.

The match showcased Arsenal’s title momentum, especially after bouncing back from a home defeat by Aston Villa and a Champions League quarter-final exit to Bayern Munich.

Leandro Trossard opened the scoring, and the team’s performance only escalated from there, with Martin Ødegaard providing a magnificent pass for one of Havertz’s goals.

The victory not only solidified Arsenal’s lead but also significantly improved their goal difference, which is now 13 better than Liverpool’s and 12 ahead of Manchester City.

For Chelsea, this loss adds to a series of disappointments, including a recent FA Cup semi-final defeat by Manchester City.

Questions are being raised about the progress of the expensively assembled team under Mauricio Pochettino’s management.

The absence of Chelsea’s leading scorer, Cole Palmer, due to injury, was felt, but the team’s second-half collapse was particularly concerning.

This result is a clear statement from Arsenal, asserting their dominance and ambition as they aim to maintain their lead in the Premier League.
