Trevor Chalobah’s goal, along with a strike from Mikel Merino, ensured that both teams walked away with a point at Stamford Bridge.
“There have been questions in the past about whether he is a leader or a captain. Today’s performance clearly shows that he is,” Walcott remarked to Sky Sports regarding James.
“Facing Declan Rice and having Caicedo alongside him, he truly was the standout player of the match.
“From Arsenal's perspective, they will feel let down for not testing him enough. He was remarkable from start to finish today.”
