The Guardian, Kevin McCarra: "If Arsenal were in crisis then the anguish has now
passed to Luiz Felipe Scolari. The Brazilian does have his grievances since the visitors' equaliser, the first of Robin van Persie's goals, should have been ruled offside. Scolari's Chelsea had
already seen Liverpool take three points at Stamford Bridge, to say nothing of defeat by Burnley in the League Cup, before the arrival of Arsenal. All the same, there is sympathy for the
manager. In part, he is a victim of changing times. This is no longer a club of unlimited resources. So long as the fitness of the presently suspended Didier Drogba is in question, Scolari has,
in Nicolas Anelka, a single proven striker at his disposal."
Thursday 27th November
The Guardian,
David Hytner: "Chelsea had this game and their qualification for the knock-out phase in the palm of their hands but after a stunning denouement they had to face up to the fact that they
might need a win at home to Cluj in a fortnight's time."
Sunday 23rd November
The Observer, Jamie Jackson: "On an
afternoon when fellow leaders Liverpool also drew, here was a large and unwanted dollop of frustration for Chelsea, whose display had Big Phil muttering right to the end, and their fans walking
away with complaints that it had all been too casual."
