Arsenal vs Chelsea: Player Ratings

Standard Sport assess the individual performances from Arsenal's clash with Chelsea at the Emirates.

They may have to wait a while longer but any lingering doubts that Chelsea might not have been able to make it over the finish line are surely gone as Jose Mourinho’s men took a huge step towards a first title since 2010 with a 0-0 draw against Arsenal.

The visitor’s tactics were clear from the off as Mourinho started without a recognised front man and throughout the match the visitors seemed happy to play for the draw that they knew would kill off any lingering hopes Arsenal may have had of stealing the crown.

In a feisty first half referee Michael Oliver was the centre of the attention, denying four penalties, three for Chelsea, in controversial circumstances. The second of these appeals would see Oscar taken to hospital at half-time as he clashed with Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina.

The second half saw Chelsea effectively kill the game as the home side struggled to find their way past an immovable backline.
