A selection of Chelsea fans on Twitter provided their reaction to Jorginho’s defensive error, which contributed to the club’s 1-0 Premier League defeat to Arsenal.

The Gunners took the lead through Emile Smith Rowe in the 15th minute of the derby, and it came about from a poor back pass from Jorginho.

The Italian was hurried into a back pass with the high pressing from the Gunners, but he did not spot Kepa Arrizabalaga out of position.

Arrizabalaga scrambled to save the ball on the line, but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang quickly got to the rebound and teed up Smith Rowe to convert into an empty net.

It happened to be the only goal of the contest, with the Blues failing to test the Gunners goalkeeper sufficiently with just five of their 19 shots on target.

Jorginho was largely at fault for the derby defeat, but some of the club’s faithful refused to blame him, citing his consistent displays under Thomas Tuchel this year.

Twitter reactions:

People blaming Jorginho like he didn’t help Chelsea to the UEFA Champions League final. Players aren't robots. They're not programmed not to make mistakes. Every human being makes mistakes. The team tried to recover the goal but it didn't happen. Let it rest and move on.

Game for Giroud, pity for Jorginho, he never makes mistakes, and one he does is goal for them
