MIKEL MERINO scored again as Arsenal dominated against a struggling Chelsea at the Emirates.
The big news ahead of kick-off was that Blues talisman Cole Palmer was OUT of the matchday squad with a minor injury.
The West London side’s slow start would be capitalised on by the hosts as makeshift striker Merino rose highest from a corner to flick over Robert Sánchez after 20 minutes of dominance.
