• Arteta’s side without league win since 5 October
• Arsenal visit Chelsea in London derby on Sunday

Leandro Trossard has admitted Arsenal must become more ruthless if they want to turn around their fortunes against Chelsea. Mikel Arteta’s side have not won in the Premier League since 5 October and failed to score for the second game in succession in their defeat at Inter in the Champions League on Wednesday, when they registered 21 shots but only four on target.

A first-half strike from Darwin Núñez and a late finish from Mohamed Salah secured victory over Unai Emery’s stubborn side, who lacked the quality in the final third to seriously trouble Liverpool. Liverpool have bettered their tally of 28 points from the opening 11 games only once in the last 34 seasons, in 2019-20, when they went on to win the Premier League.
