Pochettino believes Chelsea are ‘building something’<\/h3>\n

John Terry has publicly expressed his disappointment with Chelsea’s penalty against Arsenal despite the decision handing the Blues a deserved lead in their Premier League clash on Sunday. Cole Palmer slotted the spot-kick home to fire the hosts ahead in the London derby at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

Chelsea dominated the early proceedings as they sought a fourth successive win under Mauricio Pochettino against Mikel Arteta’s unbeaten side. And they found their reward in the 13th minute when a Mykhaylo Mudryk header rebounded off the outstretched arm of Arsenal defender William Saliba.<\/p>\n

Referee Chris Kavanagh initially decided against handing the hosts a penalty but was called over to the VAR monitor shortly after.<\/p>\n

Following a short review of the incident, Kavanagh pointed to the spot, and Palmer made no mistake in firing the opening goal past David Raya.<\/p>\n

Chelsea’s \u00a340million forward sent a soaking Stamford Bridge into a frenzy under heavy rainfall. Terry was equally as delighted but admitted his sympathy for Arsenal over what he believed was a harsh decision.<\/p>\n

“Delighted we got the penalty, but I don’t agree with the rules on this, very harsh on defenders,” Terry wrote on X, formerly Twitter.<\/p>\n
