Jamie Carragher explains how Chelsea's tactics stifled Arsenal before Mikel Arteta used Kai Havertz to go direct and rescue his side a point.
Jamie Carragher praised Mikel Arteta's adaptability after his 'brilliant' tactical adjustment helped rescue a point for Arsenal in their 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Arsenal looked to be heading to their first Premier League defeat of the season after Cole Palmer put Chelsea in front from the penalty spot and Mykhailo Mudryk's cross-shot outfoxed David Raya.
' Carragher was surprised, however, when Pochettino changed shape with the introduction of Nicolas Jackson for Mudryk midway through the second half. 'I naturally thought Jackson would go to a wide position and they would keep that box midfield. 'It unnerved me, from a Chelsea point of view, that he went 4-2-3-1, but they actually improved in terms of going forward.
