Tammy Abraham's 12th league goal of the term sealed the Blues' win.

Frank Lampard admitted Jorginho could easily have been sent off before tapping in the goal that sparked Chelsea’s 2-1 Premier League win at Arsenal.

Italy midfielder Jorginho pounced on Bernd Leno’s goalkeeping calamity to tap into the empty net and send Chelsea en route to a turnaround victory at the Emirates Stadium.

Tammy Abraham’s 12th league goal of the term sealed the Blues’ win, to help boss Lampard’s men avoid a sixth loss in eight matches.

“We were quiet in the dressing room after the Everton defeat and I didn’t like it. And in the home games we’ve been lacking something.

“It’s not a turning point, but we showed we can have a right go and win a game in a different way.”

New Arsenal boss Arteta believes Jorginho should have been dismissed for a second yellow card but insisted the Gunners only have themselves to blame for defeat.

Arsenal have now lost four consecutive home matches in all competitions for the first time in 60 years.

Asked whether Jorginho should have been sent off, Arteta said: “I think that’s up to the referee but for me it’s very clear. That’s it.

“I blame my team (for defeat). We are responsible for everything we did wrong on that football pitch.

“The decisions we didn’t get right, obviously. The other things we cannot control or change them now.”
