Arsenal 3-0 Chelsea: Twitter reactions over Sanchez's heroics as Gunners win first league game over Blues since 2011
Alexis Sanchez, Theo Walcott and Mesut Ozil were on the scoresheet for Arsenal against Chelsea.
Arsenal dominated Chelsea as Arsene Wenger saw his side register a comfortable 3-0 victory over their London rivals at the Emirates on 24 September. The Gunners registered their first Premier League win against the Blues since October 2011.
In the absence of captain John Terry, Antonio Conte started summer signing David Luiz alongside Gary Cahill in the heart of the back four. The latter's error helped Alexis Sanchez give the north London club an early lead, before Theo Walcott doubled it within minutes.
Mesut Ozil got his name on the scorehseet in the first half as Arsenal scored three first half goals against the west London club, which was sufficient for them to bag three points. An impressive team effort resulted in Chelsea's second straight defeat in the league, with the previous one coming against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

IBTimes UK have compiled some of the best Twitter reactions following Arsenal's fourth straight league win, which came against their city rivals, Chelsea.

Roberto Di Matteo deserves a humanitarian award and a statue for winning the Champions League final with Luiz and Cahill

Gary Cahill and David Luiz is the worst centre half partnership since Gary Cahill and David Luiz.

The fact we could've rebuilt in the summer but opted to give new contracts to Ivanovic, Cahill and Willian sums us up. Cancers to the club.

Chelsea is the only club that'll give extensions to Cahill and Ivanovic without second thoughts while making Terry wait for months tears
