From the source
Chelsea’s London rivals Arsenal had another weekend where they could celebrate after beating Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield. Declan Rice put in another top-class performance as he helped Mikel Arteta’s side to win all three points and keep a clean sheet.
Chelsea did not have a bad weekend either. The Blues beat Manchester United 2-0 after goals from Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer, and Theo Walcott has actually chosen someone from Xabi Alonso’s team as his player of the week instead of Rice.
While Walcott was impressed with Rice, Estevao Willian was his “standout player” in gameweek 9. Estevao was making his first start in the Premier League this season and did not disappoint.
