Closed Arsenal v Chelsea

[kobematabryant 400]

Give Hazard, Oscar and Schurrle a rest. Time to give our secondary players a chance like Mata, KDB, Willian. I'm hoping KDB MOTM, the kid is talented.

i'd rather take 3 points from Newcastle...

I'd rather both.

This is a big game for KDB. Both Willian and Schurrle haven't been particularly impressive so far. A good outing could force him back into the team.

Same applies to Essien and Mikel. Lampard has had a mediocre start to the season, his spot isn't looking too safe.

I strongly disagree on Willian and Schurrle, both have been doing very well and impressed me, they turned a few draws into three pointers for us.

Schurrle? He has played very well recently which is why he is unlikely to start tonight because he has earned starts in the major competitions with his performances.

Told Kalas does start.

I think Schurrle has been imptessive tbh.

Got there before me, and in the form we're in I fancy us to do that.

Dan Levene just tweeted that Cech, Cole, Terry, Lampard, Oscar and Schürrle are not in the matchday squad.

Our aim tonight

[bouletje 82]

Think Mou is the caring - "I don't care" kind of guy, I expect a lineup different from what I saw so far. Number 1 against number 2 of the league, there's more at stake for him, that's my thought.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Expect to see a fairly strong B team.

[NishC300 1,865]

It's a Capital One Cup tie so I hope we see a front 3 of KDB, Mata and Willian. What about playing Ake alongside Mikel? Someone responsible next to a promising talent shouldn't be a bad idea. Then at the back Azpi-Kalas-Luiz-Bertrand (or Cahill in place of Kalas)

[Hutcho 8,443]

Schwarzer

Azpi Kalas Cahill Bertrand

Essien Luiz

KDB Mata Willian

Eto'o
