Arsenal captain, Laurent Koscielny, has criticized manager Arsene Wenger’s team selection for their 3-1 loss at Chelsea last weekend and says “we played some players in front of others”.
The defeat left the Gunners 12 points adrift of their London rivals.
Koscielny feels the result would have been different, if Wenger chose a different team for the clash at Stamford Bridge.
He said, as quoted by the Mirror: “I think we played some players in front of others and I think we should have played more as a team and there was space to do so. They hit us on the counter.”
The France defender also admitted it would be difficult to end their 13-year wait for a Premier League title this season.
“’It will be difficult now,” he added.
“Mathematically, nothing is done but we know that it is going to be very complicated.
“We need to come back to the quality of our game, our passing, movement.”
