4. Arsenal 3-1 Chelsea

Had we managed to keep a clean sheet against the Blues, this match may have found itself higher up on this list. As it stands, though, we allowed Chelsea, the team that never scores, to score against us, and therefore, our 3-1 victory against the west London club comes in at fourth.

We were terrific in this game, particularly in the first half, during which our intensity and quality in each third of the pitch were simply too much for the visitors.

Occurring straight after our damning defeat to Manchester City, there were fears that the players would allow that disappointment to take control of them and we would lose this game.

However, that couldn’t have been any further from the truth. A first-half brace from Martin Odegaard and a goal from Gabriel Jesus secured the three points inside the opening 45 minutes. The one negative being we took our foot off the gas in the second half.
