The team coached by Pujitianu has a record of only 2 wins and 4 losses since its debut in the Premier League's "Big 6", and has even been teased by netizens for surpassing Manchester United.
After this game, Chelsea's humiliating statistics keep coming up. First and foremost, it became the biggest defeat in the team's history against the Arsenal. Since October 2011, they have once again suffered a five-goal massacre at the hands of their city rivals.

It's worth noting that Adi Da was Manchester City's assistant manager at the time. Chelsea conceded 57 goals in 32 league games this season, a new single-season high. Pudjettenu, as captain, has not won any of his eight visits to Arsenal, drawing four and losing four.
Since taking over Chelsea in the summer of last year, Pucettenu has suffered many defeats, winning only against Tottenham and Manchester United in 11 matches against the "Big 6". After the match, Puttetino said he reminded his players to wake up at half-time to avoid conceding too early. However, the team struggled in the second half and he admitted: "10 to 15 minutes after conceding the goal, we improved our performance and started to create chances. We discussed it at half-time. We couldn't afford to get off to a bad start again, but the game started in a bad way. After conceding two more goals, the team had given up on this game."
After the game, many Chelsea fans called for a change of Pucettenu online, fearing that the Argentine manager would lose his chance this summer. "The call for a change of manager was loud and clear.
