Though Ramsey did not play a significant part in both the goals, his off-ball movements and incredible man-marking did the thing for Arsenal yesterday.

As we all know, Jorginho is the player Sarri depends upon to control the tempo of the game. He has recorded the most passes this season in the Premier League and in short, he is the backbone of Chelsea. However, last night, he probably had the least touches by a player in a Chelsea shirt.

Unai Emery is a tactical mastermind, and he once again proved himself to be a world-class coach. The reason why he played Ramsey over Ozil is to provide that off the ball movements, similar to a box-to-box midfielder. He was a number 10 last night, but when it came to defending, he completely stuck to Jorginho all the time; an impactful performance by the Welshman.
