Ammon News - Chelsea endured their heaviest-ever defeat by Arsenal as Mikel Arteta’s team returned to the top of the Premier League, while Mauricio Pochettino accused his players of 'giving up'.

This performance piled the pressure back on Pochettino, who admitted afterwards that they will never deserve European football if they perform as pitifully as this.

Leandro Trossard kickstarted this humiliation of Chelsea by scoring after four minutes before Arsenal took charge in the second half, with Ben White and Kai Havertz each grabbing two goals.

The Emirates away end was practically empty before the end with Chelsea having now conceded 57 goals this season – their most in a Premier League campaign and with six games still to go.

With Aston Villa and Tottenham next, Pochettino said: ‘We talked at half-time about how it is not possible to start the game like this. But we started in a bad way again. We conceded two goals and in this moment, the team gave up. We were not in the game.
