Chelsea’s ex-captain, John Terry, has said he is delighted with Trevoh Chalobah’s performance after the Blues’ 1-1 Premier League draw with Arsenal on Sunday.
Enzo Maresca’s side were reduced to ten men for the majority of the game after Moises Caicedo was shown a red card for a reckless challenge on Mikel Merino.
Trevoh Chalobah put Chelsea in front immediately after the break but Merino saved Arsenal the shame of losing to 10 man Chelsea.
With the result, Arsenal are now five points ahead of Manchester City in second and and six points ahead of Chelsea.
Terry hailed Chalobah, saying he was ‘delighted’ for the Blues defender.
“Super performance from the boys, delighted for Chalobah scoring. We spoke about how important set-pieces were in the build-up to the game and thankfully we were the team to get the advantage from that one,” Terry said in a video posted on his TikTok account.
“Overall, I’m delighted and we rest up and keep going. We have to be delighted with that today because Arsenal have been rolling teams over week after week so far. Hence why they’re top of the league.
“But they don’t get any further away from us in this title race so far. I think today, we’ve shown we can compete with the very best in the league and give everyone a run for their money.”
