Ben Chilwell finally speaks out after clash with Silva, Enzo
Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell has expressed displeasure at their recent 3-1 defeat to Arsenal in the EPL.
Chilwell in a statement revealed his fellow teammates were hurt by the defeat.
The defender’s statement comes after he was involved in an on-field clash with Enzo Fernandez and Thiago Silva after Arsenal’s second goal as Martin Odegaard was left to find the net easily.
“We’re hurt and angry, every negative emotion you could think of,” Chilwell said via the club’s official website.
“It was very poor. We knew that if we came here and played like that we would have to expect to concede three goals.
“We weren’t getting tight to anyone, weren’t laying a hand on anyone. We were passive. We’re probably quite a nice team to play against which has been the story of the whole season, to be honest.”
Chelsea’s defeat to Arsenal make it their sixth defeat since Frank Lampard took over from Graham Potter.
