Important for the players to not become complacent against them just because of their form.

They will win. I can see it.

the refs and VAR will make sure of that

[Blue Armour 4,165]

Who is the referee for this game anyway?

Better not be Antony Taylor.

EDIT: Just checked., Its going to be Michael Oliver

 Fourth official: Stuart Attwell. VAR: Paul Tierney. Assistant VAR: Constantine Hatzidakis.

Must win, confidence booster and crucial 3pts, will set us up nicely.

If I were a betting man living in the UK I'd put money on one of Luiz or Willian scoring against us. Willian has been shocking all season and their fans hate him. But he'll want to stick it to us here.

I bet one of them will score a worldie from a free kick. 😂

IF we lose to Arsenal, we might have our own AFTV in Mana.

We have 4 days between yesterday's game and this game on Saturday. Given our record under Lampard, anyone wants to take a guess on what sudden injury might pop up before Saturday?

Not a surprise in the end, I guess but Arteta has gone with this XI against Man City tonight...

His job is on the line, he knows a win vs Chels will give him some breather, cunt.

What a fucking time to lose both our FB's and you can bet Ziyesh wont be anywhere near the team for this game.

Looks like Chilwell will certainly miss this game and the following 2 league games after that, according to Matt Law. His injury isn't serious but there could be some minor damage to his ligaments. Would likely be out for 2 weeks.

Win tonight and confidence boost? Hmm. Nothing would surprise me. Theyre iffy... We can be iffy.. depends what side turns up

[Jase 43,479]

3 minutes in and Man City are already 1-0 up against Arsenal...

Maybe trust Emerson at LB for 1 game.., but expect him to be reliable for all 3 games including City?? No way.

Attackers like Mahrez will turn him inside out.

It would suck to change our team shape for just one missing full back, so not sure what the best option is. Silva could be real busy for the upcoming games.

Hopefully James can return, and we can play Azpi at LB instead

Not even sure Emerson can play 2 games in 3 days first anyway. Suspect we might see Alonso in one of the 2 upcoming games. Silva will face only either Arsenal or Villa.

Going by your logic...

Death

Taxes

You talking about injuries whenever there are more free days
