Closed Arsenal v Chelsea

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Not De Bruyne or our strikers?

Ha..He meant they doesn't need to worry about our strikers even though 2 might play during the 90 min.

[didierforever 7,349]

I reckon MAZACAR might work against teams like Arsenal which tend not to park the bus.

precisely...

[Toli 977]

Cant see us winning this tbh...we are so shit atm and Arsenal are really good. we have no Drogba anymore etc. would be a huge suprise if we would win 3 points there...

[bushman 2,043]

precisely...

Well, I would not be so sure. Even though, I would like to see those 3 amigos on, but one of them to play up front & no Torres, BA or Eto´o.

[Kieran. 6,317]

It's funny how this game was seen as one where we could win and go top, but really we'll just be in 2nd place.

That would be ideal yeah but there is more chance of us being 5th than 2nd come end of Monday

Maybe Schurrle up front and Mata joining him as a second striker?

and the thought of facing Suarez the week after gives me the fucking creeps.

Let's just hope we stay 2nd, atleast before the new year.

A lot of pressure after City's and Liverpool's W's... got to bring it on Monday.

[bushman 2,043]

Be it, anybody but BA,Eto´o or Torres.

For me, it will be even more frustrating if Chelsea creates chances & I know they will, but one of the strikers hoofs the ball over the net.

I would even like to play Hazard up front. His dribbles are amazing, this short & stocky kid could created chances for himself & score, I feel.

Hazard builds up play well and converts them just as well. Mata can't seem to do both this season.

Converting chances.... I have to agree with you. But building up the play, sorry mate but Mata is better than any player in Blue at that. Why dont you take a peak at the 'Juan Mata Match Performances' thread

[Phil Driver 503]

Cech

Ivan - Luiz - Terry - Azpi

Lampard-Ramires

Willian - Oscar-Hazard

Torres

I guess Jose will play with this one but we will never know Jose will play with Andre upfront.

This is the sort of game where Jose excels with tactics and motivation ,he hates Arsenal with a passion and so do I, we will do a job on them and win .

This fella has got the team about right .

His build-up play was c-razy last season but haven't got enough game-time or motivation to perform at that level this time around.

I reckon he could fill in that second striker role comfortably.

[yuvala 2,167]

Willian - Mata - Hazard

for me

[Kieran. 6,317]

Schurrle - Willian - Hazard has to be looked at if Jose was serious about changing to counterattacking football.

If we win 10-0 we go top, happy holidays
