[TinFoilHat]

Arsenal will claw back some goal difference.

Chelsea to get a 2-2 or 3-2 win.

cant wait for the pre match thread when we meet chelsea, arses on here will be flapping :)

Who knows maybe we could win the league that day if Arsenal continues to drop points.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Chelsea to get a 2-2 or 3-2 win.

They have 1 goal in their last 7 games

Sterling hatrick?

We only beat Fulham by one goal, which also doesn't tell the gulf in class between the two teams?

It's a London derby with plenty of pride to play for on Chelsea's part.

They still have some excellent players and face an opponent who have to go for the win, which can leave them more exposed at the back.

Arsenal's form isn't great and the more I have watched them in recent months, the more I wonder what all the fuss is about?

Barring injury-time wins over United, Villa and Bournemouth, Arsenal's poor form goes back a lot further than many would realise.

Sure, they are at home and the favourites, but if Chelsea can take what chances they do take, then a positive result is more than realistic.

Sterling hatrick?

He's got to play first!

 

[deano ou812]

Yes it’s a derby game,but Chelsea have nearly fell off a cliff regarding form I can’t remember a run of games previously where they have been this poor,maybe back when the likes of Kerry Dixon played for them,but the most I can see them getting is a draw and even that’s hugely unlikely.Arsenal realistically should win and comfortably..

He's got to play first!

Would be really interesting if Chelsea take the lead!
Chelsea have enough decent players to cause an issue on the break

Silva
Chilwell
Kante
Enzo
Kovacic
Sterling
Felix
Mudrik
Pulisic

Chelsea have had 7 full days to plan and work on this game with hopefully the intention to give their fans 1 small thing to be happy about.

Frank likes us as well and will definitely be doing all he can to help our cause and to stop a London rival.

Even though Arsenal are much better as a collective than Chelsea, Chelsea do have a few individuals who on their day can produce.

Its certainly not a foregone conclusion.

If I was Frank I’d play

Mendy

Azpillicueta T.Silva Fofana Chilwell

Kante

Sterling Enzo Kovacic Mudryk

Felix

He probably won’t play anything like this but this is a very capable balanced team.
C’mon Frankie lad.

Im hoping for 1-1.
