Chelsea substitute Jorginho says the Blues players were “too soft” in the opening stages of their clash with Arsenal, while also dismissing claims he should have been sent off in their 2-1 comeback win at Emirates Stadium .



Speaking after the game, Jorginho says he was instructed to try and drive the team on after their poor opening.

"In this first 10 minutes we were too soft so I was told to push my mates,” he told Sky Sports. “I think we changed the game."

Jorginho, though, felt the referee made the correct decision, saying: "It was not my fault. Contact in football is normal. It was a foul but no more I think."

Chelsea matchwinner Abraham also chose to highlight the impact of substitute Jorginho, saying the former Napoli man changed the course of the match.

"I give credit to the boys, I give credit to Jorginho,” the England striker told Sky Sports. “The first 30 minutes they dominated the ball, they were popping us in midfield, then this man (Jorginho) comes on and it was a whole different ball game.

"Him coming on lifted the whole team and the second half was a better performance."
