Arrizabalaga once again started between the sticks for the Blues as they defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-0 on Saturday (8 October). Safe to say, fans were more than impressed by the player's performance.

Kai Havertz opened the scoring for the Blues in the first-half injury time as he headed home a fantastic cross from Mason Mount.

Mount turned provider once again as he played a give-and-go with Christian Pulisic to set up the American, who found the back of the net from a tight angle in the 54th minute.

Armando Broja scored a screamer in the 89th minute from outside the box to make the score 3-0.

Fans were impressed by Arrizabalaga's performance. Many went on to compare the Spanish shot-stopper to prime Manuel Neuer.

With Edouard Mendy injured, Graham Potter started Arrizabalaga in goal in all four matches that he has been in charge of the Blues. The Spaniard has been impressive in the opportunities that he has received.

He has now kept two clean sheets in his past two games for the Blues. Mendy has been the preferred goalkeeper at the club since his move from Stade Rennais. Former manager Thomas Tuchel also preferred the Senegalese in goal. However, Arrizabalaga is showing that given the opportunity, he can excel at the highest level.
