According to football pundit Ray Wilkins Chelsea embarrassed Arsenal last night during their 0-2 win at the Emirates.
While both sides made changes to their teams that played at the weekend with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger making eight changes to the team that beat Crystal Palace on Saturday.
The Gunners were easily beaten by a Chelsea side that had only one player who featured in the win against Manchester City on Sunday, defender Gary Cahill with Mourinho still able to field top players like Juan Mata, Michael Essien and Samuel Eto’o.
Wilkins says the win demonstrated the difference in depth between the two squads, and should be of major concern to arsenal if they expect to challenge for trophies.
“We’ve basically seen a Chelsea reserve team come out tonight and wipe the floor with Arsenal,” he said.
“Arsenal haven’t shown anything whatsoever against this Chelsea team. Chelsea have been so superior to Arsenal tonight that it’s almost been slightly embarrassing in the way Chelsea have won this evening.
“Jose hasn’t learned too much. He knows he has a fantastic squad of players and that was pretty evident tonight when you see that Chelsea can put this team out and yet there will probably be eight changes at the weekend.
“This is a squad of fantastic footballers like Michael Essien who hadn’t taken part this year and all of a sudden he comes in at the Emirates and he’s outstanding.
“They have a wonderful squad of players and whichever team they pick, they win.”
