Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal - the fans' verdict

We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Chelsea and Arsenal.

Here are some of your comments:

Chelsea fans

Obi: It was great performance. Maresca learned from the red card in the Manchester United match, when he made terrible substitutions. With every game he is learning. If Chelsea can continue with these performances without Palmer, I think they will be in the title race. They need to keep consistency.

Alan: Another red card. When is someone going to get a grip on this and start dishing out serious in-club punishment? We were very lucky to survive this match with 10 men. I would have accepted a point before the match, but I have to ask myself, could we have won this match with 11 players on the pitch? A big well done to the players who held out for the draw.

Jack: We totally could have won that. Obviously the red is frustrating, but it was an entertaining game and we looked dominant for a lot of the match. A shoutout to Sanchez, who is looking increasingly reliable as the campaign progresses.

Jarvis: Great performance with high pace and pressing. Caicedo needs to curb his 'enthusiasm' a little as we could have got the win which would have been a massive statement against the top team in the league. Has Maresca FINALLY seen the light and dropped his sideway-backwards style? Time will tell.

Colin: Chelsea played really well, showing cohesion and a maturity that is beginning to galvanise the whole squad. Our trajectory is positive and once Estevao and Palmer start to combine we may become a real force.

Arsenal fans

Rez: Arsenal's mentality was weak. Against 10 men they should have piled on the pressure, especially when there was no Caicedo in the middle of the park. But they lacked energy, impetus or any desire to go win the game. Chelsea were brilliant. They took the game to Arsenal even with 10 men. If Arsenal genuinely want to win the title, they need to put games like this to bed. So frustrating being an Arsenal fan.

Harry: I'd have settled for a point before the game. Chelsea were always going to be tough opponents and so it proved. This season, our heads don't drop when we go behind and we got a well-deserved draw. The referee was overly fussy and too quick to reach for his yellow card.

Graham: Probably the poorest performance of the season so far by Arsenal. Credit to Chelsea showing lots of fight but I think they will tail off towards the end of the season after a tough pre-season with no rest. Arsenal have got through a tough week and now we look forward to a big December. Still very positive.

Vince: A wasted opportunity against 10 men. But if you'd asked me last month if I would take two wins and a draw this past week against Spurs, Bayern, and Chelsea, I'd have happily taken it, no questions asked. I would have even bought you coffee!

Ari: It was a disappointment. We could not create real chances and Chelsea were fighting well. It was clear that we needed Saliba and Gabriel. Our left wing was not good enough.
