Chelsea's Morgan Rogers mocked by Arsenal fans in response to controversial comment
Chelsea's Morgan Rogers was mocked by Arsenal fans on Sunday in response to a comment he made earlier in the summer after joining the Blues, with the Gunners also having chased his signature
Arsenal fans ridiculed Chelsea's Morgan Rogers with chants of "you should have signed for a big club" after the English midfielder scored for the second time against the Gunners during a 2-1 defeat at the Emirates. Rogers joined Chelsea for £117 million, making him the most expensive British player in history, but Arsenal declined to make a bid, settling for his £12 million transfer from Aston Villa earlier in the summer.
The 23-year-old's pro-Chelsea comments after the match drew the ire of the Arsenal faithful, who had set their valuation too low for the Blues to match.
