Mikel Arteta called Arsenal’s stuttering bid to win the Premier League title a “nightmare” after his side were left nine points adrift of Liverpool following a 1-1 draw at Chelsea.The Gunners appeared on course to end a three-match winless streak in the league after Gabriel Martinelli converted a fine cross from the returning Martin Odegaard on the hour mark.

Arsenal can't buy a win in England right now, outside of the Carabao Cup, and Mikel Arteta's frustration was highlighted at the full-time whistle. The Gunners drew 1–1 against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday heading into the international break with just five wins from its first 11 league games.

Sadly for Mikel Arteta’s side, the lead only lasted 10 minutes as Pedro Neto fired in Chelsea’s equaliser to level the scoreline. It was another frustrating outing for Arsenal, who extended their winless run in the league to four games.
