Arsenal v Chelsea, k/o 8pm, Sky Sports

Spanish Johnny

Looking forward to the game but it may not live up to the quality and excitement expected given that very high winds and rain are likely. Dare I say i say it may suit Chelsea more tonight?!

Or we could see a wind assisted Podolski piledriver. Kerpow.

I believe it's "Podolski BANG" there Bill.

SweepTheLeg

Arsenal win i'd say, that's if Ozil is on form to assist Theo & hopefully Podolski.

Can see William having a great game.

chelsea : Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; Mikel, Lampard; Ramires, Willian, Hazard; Torres.

My gut is saying Arsenal to win given those lineups, although haven't seen much of Chelsea this season.

Andersonisgod

It's Mourinho's 4-3-3 as expected, slightly disappointed that Lampard gets the nod ahead of Oscar (who I'm convinced can play in there) but far more disappointed with Cahill starting ahead of David Luiz. That being said, I still think a Chelsea win is on the cards.

In the Arsenal Supporters Club bar atm. Just leaving. Lot of positivity about the win

COYG!!

1-1 for me. Chelsea might sneak it near the death, but has a draw in the making.

SlickRic

that Chelsea bench is ridiculous.

Mou can fúck off if he ever complains in any way, shape or form about his squad.

Cole, Luiz, Oscar, Mata, Schurrle, Eto'o.

Great line-up that. Look to see Flamini to make an impact late on if we are ahead

Francie Barrett

Willian starting is interesting.

Reckon this finishes 1-1, Giroud scoring first and Ivanovic heading home a late equalizer.

Arsenal need a good start and no fcuk ups from the defenders. Koscielney will be sorely missed i feel.

.jacksparrow.

Giroux will get one good chance without a doubt, hope he finishes it.

SweepTheLeg

Mata has scored in his last 4 starts against Arsenal, surprised Mourinho has benched him.

you can't possibly be surprised.

Spanish Johnny

Looking at that team I think (and am really hopeful) we will see Walcott play a lot of this game on the left.

Mickeroo

Surprised to see Luiz not starting, Walcott's pace could murder Terry and Cahill if he's on form. No Mata either.

Johner

Willian deserves to start, he has played very well in the last few games.

As predicted the Mrs is going into labor it seems, so heading to the hospital now.
You think the Arsenal will do the right thing and give us a win!

Pretty good reason to miss the game. Congrats in advance!

Hoping to see a few goals in this, can see Arsenal nicking it.

Do not, I repeat, do not ask her if she could have waiting another 2 hours before going into labour.

Come on you Gunners.

Mourinho ya loner :pac:

What's Mourinho doing there on his own ?

Joeyjoejoe43

I agree with some previous posters, draw written all over it, I'll go with 2-2 first scorer Lampard

Good Luck Badtothebone & mrs Badtothebone and the future little Badtothebone :-)


Hoping for a classic game here-the weather should make it a bad night for defenders & keepers..Can see arsenal just edging it though Im neutral ish (Yid-lad).

Arsenal have a 7% win percentage in games when Mike Dean is the referee :eek:

Willian playing wide over Mata is baffling

tayto lover

Some of the passing is crap.

GLaDOS

Very sloppy from both sides so far

.jacksparrow.

Come on Ramsey concentrate

Mickeroo

Mezut Ozil in the team and Theo Walcott taking the corners.

That side probably favors someone right footed.

Duck Soup

Chelsea are intent on stopping Arsenal getting into their passing rhythm. Evenly matched so far.

Moneymaker

Didn't Jose coin the phrase 'park the bus'?

Hmmm.
