We let ourselves down!' - Chelsea 'started too slow' against Arsenal and can do 'much better', says Hudson-Odoi

The England international has conceded that the Blues paid the price for a below-par first-half showing at Emirates Stadium

Chelsea "started too slow" against Arsenal and can do "much better" says Callum Hudson-Odoi, who claims the whole squad let themselves down in the London derby.

Arsenal brought a seven-match winless run to an end in emphatic fashion against Chelsea at Emirates Stadium. Goals from Alexandre Lacazette, Granit Xhaka and Bukayo Saka wrapped up a 3-1 victory for Mikel Arteta's side on Saturday, with Tammy Abraham's 85th minute effort amounting to nothing more than a consolation for the visitors.

Chelsea were favourites in the lead-up to the match, but found themselves completely over-run in the first half and left it too late to start mounting a comeback.
