Jamie Carragher has shed more light on his statement about Chelsea now becoming the new Arsenal.
He made this statement recently after Chelsea received the thrashing of their lives vs Manchester City.
His words then, “I called a couple of Chelsea performances a disgrace going into this game – this is as bad as anything.
“Looking at Sarri, he’s obviously only just over halfway through his first season, but the worst thing I could say is it looks like he’s turned Chelsea into Arsenal.
“That Arsenal team that used to get battered for the last seven or eight years away from home in big games because they were too weak.
“You could never say that about Chelsea, no matter what’s gone on, that they were weak.
“We are watching a really weak football team here.”
He has now come out to reveal what the statement means. The punidit said Chelsea are beginning to settle for defeat in matches against their top rivals just like Arsenal.
His words, “Yes [I stand by it],”
“The reason I say that is because probably for the last five or six years when I’m watching Arsenal, they get rolled over in big games.
“There’s been an 8-2, I think at Man United, there was a 5-1 at Anfield a few years ago, there was a 6-0 against Chelsea.
“What we are seeing now from Chelsea is very similar.
