PLAYER RATINGS: Palmer stars for Chelsea with Mudryk puts Arsenal under pressure
Arsenal fought back from 2-0 down to take a point from Stamford Bridge as Chelsea blew the chance to make it three Premier League wins in a row.
Cole Palmer gave the home side the lead 15 minutes into the match, after VAR ruled that William Saliba hand handled the ball in the box, allowing the former Man City star to open the scoring from the spot.
Moments after the break Mykhailo Mudryk's cross-come shot somehow found it's way past David Raya and it put the Blues in control of the London derby.
However, Robert Sanchez's sloppy back pass allowed Declan Rice to get the Gunners back into the game before substitute Leandro Trossard popped up to give Mikek Arteta's side a share of the spoils.
Mailsport rates the best and the worst on display at Stamford Bridge...
CHELSEA- (4-3-3)
ROBERT SANCHEZ: 5
His sloppy pass got Arsenal back into the match and ruined the Chelsea performance.
MALO GUSTO: 7
Sprightly in both attack and defence — and the reason for Oleksandr Zinchenko’s early substitution. But was asleep on the left post for Leandro Trossard’s equaliser.
THIAGO SILVA: 8

LEVI COLWILL: 7
Paired well with Silva, following the veteran’s orders. Did not give the opposition scraps to feed off.

Played out of his skin. Particularly evident by marshalling Bukayo Saka out the game. No small feat.
CONOR GALLAGHER: 7.5
Did not stop running all match. Much energy.
MOISES CAICEDO: 7.5
Made it difficult for Declan Rice in the midfield battle. Produced the foundations in the middle.
ENZO FERNANDEZ: 7
Aided Caicedo effectively, dispersing play across the pitch.
COLE PALMER: 8.5
Played with a real confidence, brushing
