​Arsenal defender Bellerin: We fought hard for Chelsea draw

Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin has explained that the Gunners had to give it their all in order to earn a draw against Chelsea.

Arsenal claimed a 0-0 draw against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday and although the Gunners could have pushed on for a late winner, Bellerin has revealed that he is happy with his side's performance on the day as every player worked hard to earn the point.

Bellerin said: "I'm happy with the performance and disappointed with the point. I would like to put in front the performance, the response of the players, the togetherness and fighting spirit we have shown, which was questioned a lot. That was our No 1 target today, to do that.

"We had plenty of chances and even in the end we would have created more chances had we had a history of winning games. In the end we played with some inhibitions because we didn't want to lose."
