Chelsea V Arsenal- Sunday 17 September at 13:30

[AFC Leveller]

Huge game, one of our bogey grounds in recent years against the champions. Do we have the right players to go there and win? Definitely. However, as we have seen over the years, the players either don't prepare for this game and self destruct by giving away two cheap goals or the manager picks the wrong team and formation. I hate sitting here khowing the same thing will probably happen, we will go there and get spanked. Concede the first goal, defend like a bunch of amateurs and completely fail to turn up or prepare for the ocasion.

My team would be (433):

Cech
Bellerin
Mert
Kos
Kolsinac
Coq
Xhaka
Ramsay
Ozil
Alexis
Lacazette

2 DCMs with Ramsay just in front and Ozil on the right, Alexis left and Laca up top.

If this is our stating 11, i reckon we can win 2-1.

However, the manager will let likely choose a completely different team and we'll lose 3-0

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Coquelin is a bit dead tbf.

[Niall_Quinn]

Last 5 games, 5 losses, 15 conceded, 2 scored.

A record that should get any manager sacked.

If we win then Wenger has improved his record from catastrophically, cataclysmically, unbelievably awful, to catastrophically, unbelievably awful.

We go into the game with the same old hope and expectations, neither of which will be met.

We need Wenger to be sacked BEFORE this game to stand a chance.

Its time for Arsenal to once again show how bad they are.

I don't just want defeat, I want humiliation.

I want at least 6-0 and maybe more, I think Arsenal can do it, especially if its shocker and the welsh idiot in midfield.

We all know this game is already lost in the Arsenal players minds but I want another battering, this time worse than ever.

Wenger the fuck out and this is the ONLY way.

Oh come off it.

Be against the manager, by all means. Just about everyone is with you on that.

But do you SERIOUSLY want the club to go down the drain in your pursuit of one man? Does that mean the cunt really is bigger than Arsenal FC?

Only if we let him be.

[AFC Leveller]

Coquelin is a bit dead tbf.

Just read somewhere he's dead for 3 weeks.

In that case Manitland starts. We can't go into a big away game with two Non disciplined midfielders. Chelsea will look at the Liverpool game and see how we were overran in the middle and do the same thing to us.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Cech, Bellerin, Koscielny, Mustafi, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Elneny, Ozil, Sanchez, Lacazette, Welbeck

Bollocks to three at the back. It doesn't work unless you know what you're doing

[Xhaka Can’t]

Last 5 games, 5 losses, 15 conceded, 2 scored.

A record that should get any manager sacked.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

There's so much attention on this match and pressure on us to perform that I think we may just do it. Tbh, we've beaten Chelsea 3 out of the last 4 times so our recent record isn't that bad.

Though it'd be like that Man City away game a few years back, a blip that's not going to fundamentally change Wenger's approach to matters.


Cech

Kos, Mustafi, Monreal

Bellerin, Saed

Ramsey, Xhaka

Ozil Lacazette Welbeck

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

I'd be happy to see Ozil, Sanchez and Welbeck play and even Theo who has often played well against Chelsea. Even more important though is how we work as a team and what we do in midfield so I think the actual exact line up is secondary.

Can't for the life of me objectively see an away win but I live in hope.
