Famous Nigerian gospel artiste Nathaniel Bassey’s savage post revels in Blues’ misery following Gunners’ mauling at the Emirates.
In the aftermath of Chelsea’s 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Arsenal in the Premier League on Tuesday night, a famous Nigerian gospel singer has taken to social media to mock the Blues.
Former Chelsea player Kai Havertz scored a brace, while Leandro Trossard and Ben White also found the net as Mikel Arteta’s Gunners moved three points clear at the top of the table with a dominant performance at the Emirates Stadium.
Following the one-sided London derby clash, popular Nigerian singer Nathaniel Bassey took to Twitter to express his amusement at Chelsea’s heavy defeat.
Bassey, known for his spirit-filled gospel music, posted a one-word tweet that simply read “Chelsea!” accompanied by laughing emojis.
However, the talented and popular preacher quickly deleted the post, perhaps realising the potential backlash it could receive.
The comprehensive victory over their London rivals was a significant statement from Arsenal, who have now established a comfortable lead at the top of the Premier League table.
Trossard’s opening goal opened the floodgate for the Gunners, and Havertz’s double, along with White’s strike, sealed a memorable evening for the Gunners.
The result will undoubtedly increase the pressure on Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, who has been tasked with turning the Blues’ fortunes around since taking over in the summer.
Despite the one-sided nature of the defeat, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed sympathy for Pochettino, acknowledging the good work the former Tottenham boss has done with Chelsea in recent weeks.
As the Premier League season progresses, the battle at the top of the table is shaping up to be an intriguing one, with Arsenal firmly in the driving seat after this impressive victory over their London rivals.
