10. Roberto Di Matteo (2012)
Another short-term appointment that Arsene Wenger did not particularly enjoy. His Arsenal side faced Roberto Di Matteo’s Chelsea twice in the space of eight months.
The games were split between seasons, with both matches coming at the Emirates and Arsenal winning neither. The first was a drab 0-0 draw, nothing like the mouthwatering eight-goal clash earlier that season.
At the start of the 2012-13 season, in which Arsenal eventually finished fourth, Chelsea travelled to the north of the capital and stole a much-needed three points. Gervinho pulled a goal back after Fernando Torres’ opener, but Juan Mata was there to find a winner in the second half.
