Supremely disappointed at the sending off. Would have been a comfortable win with a full team., and we could have still nicked a win with 10 men. Also how does Fabinho not get a single card? Anyway. A point at Anfield is always a valuable one in the long run. Let's move on

Hmm..that's the only thing that bothers me. He will become the PL poster boy again. VAR...

Correction: it was mainly because we had Ashley Cole.

Define 'not that good anymore'. If I'm not mistaken, Ronaldo outscored Lukaku last season? He will strengthen United for sure. That being said, I'm actually excited about the added competition this season. Not because rival teams are stronger, but because after a long time we seem to have a squad and manager that can give any other team a good fight. Remember, previous Chelsea teams faced a Man Utd team with a prime Ronaldo and Ferguson and still gave them a fight. Get the popcorn ready.

I said the same when he first joined but a lot of people found him hilarious apparently. Also said I don't even think he is a fan tbh, but whatever.

Well technically Tuchel's Chelsea has beaten them before..

I believe Robertson was on the bench in their last game. Very likely to start.

Agree about Chillwell, which is why I wished he had come on as a sub to get some match fitness. As good as Alonso has been so far this season, Liverpool attack looks dangerous again with Salah and TAA coming down our left flank. Also agree we need a fast runner to play off Lukaku, like Werner or Pulisic. Need to take advantage of their high line.

What a draw. Not only big games, but most of them are away fixtures too.

Delighted to see Ziyech back in training so soon!

Not denying or agreeing to it. Just saying enough is enough. We've been the superior team, and we are right now. And we need to show it.

Don't give a crap about whether Arsenal 'turn up' or not. If Chelsea turn up and there is no negative interference from VAR or the referees, it's a win. End of. Enough of this nonsense about Marsenal being a bogey team.

Also, on the plus side. Seems to know a lot of the squad players, especially youth players like Mount & James Was pleasantly surprised to learn that he's already talked to Havertz before too. Hopefully means that he will build chemistry with the rest of the team sooner rather than later.

He speaks like an older Didier. He's always come across as a well educated person. Always seems to say the right thing to the press.

I kind of want to see Lukaku and Werner play against the Arsenal. That kind of pace and power against the Gooner defense could be hilarious to watch.

The reason why I think we have tended to struggle in this fixture recently (when we really shouldn't) is because I think a lot of players in our squad really don't give a shit about Arsenal as a team., seeing how terrible they are. On the other hand, Arteta & Co. see this fixture as a cup final and a chance to big up their fans. This is the best game for Lukaku to play in and showcase what he's got. Will give our players added motivation.

Also, this game aside. Fixture list looks so frustrating. No breather for the next 6 weeks. One annoying fixture after the next. Not sure if playing all the big sides early and out of the way makes things easier, especially in the winter months when we usually struggle.

Same The plus side is we're playing them early on this time. Not when they've been on a long run of terrible form and are looking for a comeback game.

Good game to start Lukaku. Unlike other opposition we don't need to be clever about beating Arsenal. They will be defensive as usual, playing on the counter. They will need to be bullied into submission.

Beautiful start! A thumping win and a clean sheet to boot., and this without our main goal threat yet to start. Granted Palace were useless, but I thought Kovacic and Jorginho absolutely bossed it in the middle of the park. Mount looked sharp as usual, Timo hard working, Pulisic back to goal scoring. And Havertz had an electric cameo too. Should have added a 4th. But good that we scored 3, given Uniteds fantastic start. We could actually have multiple contenders this season and every goal could count.

I really hope Lukaku is ready to bulldoze them next week. Can't stand sitting through another one of their defensive counterattacking fluke tactics.

Last season when we faced Arsenal, they were on a long run of poor form. It was like they were waiting to turn it around. This time thankfully, we are going to catch them early on. So, no.

It would've been nice to see him lineup for Palace. But at least he gets to make his return debut against Arsenal,.so that should be good.
