Arsene Wenger believes that Chelsea used negative tactics during their trip to Arsenal earlier today.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has accused Chelsea of employing negative tactics at the Emirates Stadium earlier today.

The Gunners created the better of the chances against their London rivals but they were unable to breach Petr Cech's net.

Speaking after the match, Wenger bemoaned his side's failure to turn their domination into goals.

"It was a strange game, they decided to lock the game up and we were not sharp enough with our passing or movement but we still had all the chances, they had none," Wenger told BBC Sport.

The draw has left Arsenal third in the Premier League table.
