How are we all feeling???

Starting to get the gitters here. Just started to do a bit of house cleaning to burn off some energy.

I need a whiskey to take the edge off....
Edit: Now I need another.

Seems like a dig at some internal people, he has said a few times when the time is right he'll share more about what has gone on this season.

Anyway discussion for another day!

The stick he has taken to date he couldn't give a fcuk about that.

He done the same with Fabianski when he was leaving, loyalty is oddly one off his weakest points

There wasnt the same gulf in class between Scz and Fabianski as they are between Cech and Ospina though.

Wenger is whining about the abuse he is getting on bbc earlier. Not a shred of sympathy for him. The abuse is a result of his and the teams approach to matches and competitions with the last 12 years or so. In a properly ran football club he should be sacked irregardless of today's result.

Yes indeed. It has not happened overnight. He refused to buy season after season and just plodded on, refuting any criticism. He knows where the door is by now.

I'm nervous, very nervous. Sucking the life out Heineken bottles here, take away on its way, Ramsey backed first goalscorer 16/1. Gonna enjoy this anyway, MASSIVE game. COYG!

Anyways enough about Wenger, i hope for many fans of Arsenal FC who travel up and down the country and all over Europe to matches and of course all of you boards.ie gooners, that we do the business today

Not a bit nervous. Im expecting another colossal failure to be honest so anything else is a bonus. I may throw one or two of Aldi's finest down the red canal at some stage though

Exactly why I'm nervous. I think we will get absolutely hockeyed today...but...it's a final and I'll try and enjoy it. Monumental day for Wenger more than the players on the field I think.

If we lose 10-0 today, Arsene will still be in charge this time next year and perhaps the year after that....maybe even longer. I suppose given the absentees it would be harsh to use a defeat today as a rod to beat him with but overall, win, lose or draw he should do the decent thing and walk away. His time is up. Hopefully that American leech Kroenke will do the decent thing also

While I agree with you on Wenger staying it'll still be a monumental day if we lose for him. The tide has turned and those on the fence might get off it now.

Anyway, I'd like us to win today, I might just put my focus into some positivity for the next two hours!

I've also cracked out the craft beers

Predictions?

3-1 Chelsea for me.

Jaysis lad the positivity didn't last long haha....
2-1 Arsenal....COYG...

pudzey101

2-0 to us . Alexis and Mert to sprint 70 yards and score a screamer

omega man

Just not nervous like I would normally be for a final. Not that I don't care, I desperately want to win but there's something missing (other than our CBs!).

Ardennes1944

3-1 Chelsea for me too

Bleating Lamb

Man Utd fan here,up for ye today,enough for Chelsea to win league,biggest problem for ye will be Merts lack of pace.

Btw I hate eirsports. It never works. You can't use chrome, firefox or microsoft edge, it has to be internet explorer. It kept crashing and wouldn't play and then it logged me out and when I logged back in my pc was suddenly a 3rd device that I can't give access to for a month. FFS

Found another source though but it is retarded that I can't watch it on a service I am paying for.

Anyway **** it, come on the Arsenal!

Oooooooooooohhhhh

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

tayto lover

It's on TV3

Hon Holding!

Sanchez goal reminded me of Alan Smiths at Anfield in 1989 complete with opposition idiots trying to bully the ref

Ardennes1944

Dirty bastard, pity the goal wasnt 85 mins later!

Ardennes1944

Need to calm down now though

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Chelsea look like they only had to turn up today. They look like they can be picked apart right now, could be a high scoring game.

omega man

Should be 2

wandatowell

OMG. So close.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Jesus.

Should have 3. My Lord.

tayto lover

How did Ramsey not put that in??

Guys, this could be over by now. We are battering them.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

Rambo throw any body part at that ffs.

Ardennes1944

Were gonna regret this

Yeah, Chelsea will have a good spell at some stage, really need to grab another while we're still on top.

Welbeck doing great work

omega man

Mert solid so far, fair play

Kante can kill a fast break, knowing full well he's immune to yellow cards

omega man

Good save Ospina

Queue the Ospina is dying again routine

omega man

So many chances ffs

Pacifico

Ref doing his best to help Chelsea out here

brianregan09

Xhaka and Monreal are having worldies out there today

Even özil getting stuck in. Fantastic.

Ardennes1944

The **** is Ox doing with those stupid blind passes well inside our half

gitzy16v

Should be at least another goal up...could be 4 up...

gandalf

Should have scored more but pleasantly surprised at how we have played! Looks like Chelsea have been on the rip since they won the league.

Skylinehead

I'm in bits here.

The intensity has been fantastic, but it can't last.

We've been fantastic so far. Thoughts wander back to 2001 though when we were equally fantastic against Liverpool and got hit with two sucker punches. I feel we need another here and perhaps a third to seal it. So far so good
