Popular Post! petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted December 30, 2019 Popular Post! Share Posted December 30, 2019 Thoroughly enjoyed this albeit I did not watch the first 20 mins. But from there on I saw Chelsea hiding the ball from Arsenal at the Emirates and Frank's in game adjustments were spot on. Glad to hear they have had some heated words at HT, means they care and they know they are better than that 1st half or the WH/Southampton matches.

But this is also because Arteta expected it and had plans to pin our full backs. Vesper and Muzchap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,490 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Just watching back, that Rudiger header to kick start the counter attack which led to the winner was goal-saving. Blue Armour, Vesper and Muzchap 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was 3 gifted points (by the ref and Mustafi), but I'll take it. We were so bad in the first half that we made Arsenal look good. I'll check out AFTV to listen to them shit themselves. Good to know you're still alive! Hope you had a great B-day. Vesper and Sideshow Luiz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As well as they defended, it's also strange that Arteta changed nothing to stop us from dominating the game. Granted we never looked like scoring until Leno's blunder but he was sure playing with fire because one goal from us would change the game and it sure did. Arsenal had just 3 shots after they scored and none were on target. Muzchap, Strike and Vesper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been half arsing it for years so they were never going to be able to do 90 minutes of high octane football overnight.

Not expecting high octane football but just some sort of reaction to our dominance, like a change in formation or something just to give us a food for thought. His subs was like-for-like in terms of position. Aubameyang was non-existent going forward, Lacazette was invisible, could have gone with 2 up top for instance.

Arsenal played well against us and given our disgusting performances at the Bridge... Hopefully NOT but this could be Arsenal’s year of finally beating us. Hopefully NOT, but Lampard has to turn it around. Let's try to win the games between now and then first, before worrying about the return fixture.

Sure but let’s try and get a winning run going again first, rather than alternating results like we’ve been doing in these last 2 months.

Hopefully NOT, but Lampard has to turn it around. I swear you write off our chances against Arsenal every time we face them? To put this another way, imagine us in their situation, we are on a run of winning 1 game in 15, just got beat at home by Spurs who are miles above us and i was running around saying we could win at WHL in less than a month. You'd be the first to laugh at me and dismiss any chance of that happening of the bat. Vesper and Bosnian Blue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaynChelsea 423 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 We are one of the weakest Chelsea teams Arsenal ever faced and they still managed to fuck up against us. Be more confident, we will kill Arsenal off like we do every time. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
