Loved this line from Joe.co.uk " This unity of purpose drove them to victory against an Arsenal side who, it should be said, showed they too could play for a common cause, even if that cause was only the pursuit of collective failure once again. "     

Nice to see the gooners bottle it all over again .....whenger by the way the definition of insanity is....

thoroughly entertaining master class of how to dispose of a title rival 

thought every player was on it and the team ethos is what's making the difference over the rivals 

Hazards dribbling and goal was sublime ........

Fabergas is magic etc etc 

Burnley away - tough game but confidence breeds confidence 

The King of London.

 

 

 

Yea

after watching these scenes I am having Blue Dreams - I want to make my Blue Mecca again

 

I hope that after Ivanovic departure we have a new goal scoring machine.

 

Ya Beauty!

Great win and so sweet.

If Klonk ever does this at Slippypool, those Dippers would have his watch and wallet.

Oh i never tire of us beating them.

So good to belt the Gooners once more!

What annoyed me a bit was that their goal came across as a bit of a protest about the fact that they were being destroyed even though they too had good opportunities throughout the game. And yeah, I would say they did a deserve a goal. But our victory was still very deserved, on the whole.

I would say Courtois deserves some high praise today, doesn't he? He was superb once again and he does make a difference with regards to that massive lead of ours. 2017 could be the year in which he will challenge Neuer for Goalkeeper of the Year.

Oh Rob you're gonna have to make it to the Bridge again soon!  I remember your really cool picture of you at the Shed Wall.  Probably a few years back now wasn't it?

That sort of sums me up.  Just come back from our local - one of the regulars just said "look at the the grin on her face, still smiling cos Chelsea won".  Yep.  That's me.

New barmaid (remember I'm in Shropshire) - from London, Chelsea fan.  Used to serve Dennis Wise in a pub in west London.  Ah happy days.

Very good analysis by the Telegraph that highlights how superior we were today. I love it!

Also very sad image of Cech looking back in reminiscence after the 0-3. Sad to see you suffer Petr! Fabregas has no such problems, by the way.

Is Giroud still celebrating his goal?

You know he's the the league's top scorer right?

Your blabbering bullsh*t and off the back of a 3-1 win against Arsenal it's just embarrassing to read. Shut up and enjoy the win. 

Bit harsh. He is expressing an opinion.

Personally I felt we could have easily had a 6 - 1 victory today if Costa had been a team player.

Yes, he has been great this season, but today reminded us of what he was like practically every week last season. And that is not a good thing.

FC Woolwich and Coca Cola, both bottling it since 1886. True story, look it up.

I'll never tire of watching Hazard's goal from today. I think we will be talking about it for years. Amazing.

Maybe I'm been harsh but watching MOTD I think Tibo should have saved Giroud's goal.

Wenger moaning about the first goal, no way is that a foul.

That Hazard goal man I can't stop watching it!

Just a quick reminder remember when Klopp said that we must be frustrated that we won 13 in a row and we were only 6 points ahead of them

Another quote from Joe.co.uk 

Theo Walcott in general

Almost a micro version of Arsenal's overall hype. Scores a couple of goals, shows off his pace two or three times and this is it: he's finally arrived. This time is different - that sort of thing.

Inevitably falls short and disappears into oblivion before the next season of hope comes back around.

Exactly right!

All we had to do is lose a game and his plans totally fell apart

You know I still think that defeat might have been a blessing in disguise. As great as unbeaten runs are I think you can start getting complacent and stop playing well.

Thought we were average. 42% possession. Come on
