Chelsea v Arsenal. 20th April. 19:45

[Marc Overmars]

:lol:

Let’s hope Chelsea have zoned out like they did when we won this fixture last year.

[dazthegooner]

Let's just hope we get the Brentford version of Chelsea and not Southapmpton one.

[Letters]

We'll lose and lose well.

[Niall_Quinn]

Typically, at this stage of the habitual collapse, some random set of events will deliver up a freak victory.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

When was the last time we lost four in a row in the league?

Feels like Arteta's position is untenable if it happens.

[GP]

Hearing rumours that Chelsea are a pack of cunts. Big, if true.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea: Mendy, James, Azpilicueta, Sarr, Christensen, Alonso, Kante, Loftus-Cheek, Mount, Lukaku, Werner.
Subs: Kepa, Jorginho, Thiago Silva, Pulisic, Chalobah, Saul, Barkley, Ziyech, Havertz.

Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Gabriel, Holding, Tavares, Xhaka, Elneny, Saka, Odegaard, Smith Rowe, Nketiah.
Subs: Leno, Cedric, Swanson, Azeez, Lokonga, Hutchinson, Pepe, Martinelli, Lacazette.

[Marc Overmars]

Why not give Pepe a go?

Arteta hates him.

[Mac76]

Why not give Pepe a go?

Arteta hates him.

IKR, his biases really are the worst thing about him

[Mac76]

3-0 Mount hatter

[Marc Overmars]

This will have to be a pub special to get anything.

[Mac76]

Ramsdale kicks it out of play...

[Marc Overmars]

“Just like the old days, there’s nobody here” :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alonso shot, scuffs away.

Would that have been the first goal we conceded from a corner? :lol:

[Bumble]

i am not feeling confident

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lukaku drags it wide.

[Marc Overmars]

EDDIE!!!

Another gift at Stamford Bridge :haha:

[GP]

NKETIAH!!!!!

[Mac76]

Nketiah :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

NKETIAH!!!!

WTF?!!

:haha:

[Marc Overmars]

No chance Lacazette would have been quick enough to get on to that. The perks of having a striker who can actually run.

[Marc Overmars]

1-1

Werner flukes one in

[Marc Overmars]

Good luck followed by bad luck.

Oh well.

[Mac76]

damn

Werner as well - embarrassing...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That was from Xhaka being too slow to move the ball out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's an OG for sure.

[Mac76]

Mount :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mount skews one wide.

[Marc Overmars]

All from the usual ponderous play.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Send him off!

[Mac76]

should be a yellow for Mount

[Marc Overmars]

Ah there’s the real Eddie.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah is back.

[Marc Overmars]

ESR!!!!

[Mac76]

what a goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

SMITH ROWE!!!

What a goal!

[Marc Overmars]

Xhaka did well to clear up Holdings mess there to start that move.

[Marc Overmars]

This probably going to be 4-4 or something. Both defences look terrible.

[Marc Overmars]

2-2 :haha:

Azpilicueta

[Bumble]

thats twice now that i went to the kitchen and chelsea scored!!

[Mac76]

f**k

[Mac76]

thats twice now that i went to the kitchen and chelsea scored!!

don't go to the kitchen again - ok...? :threaten:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That's awful.

[Mac76]

great effort from Eddie there

[Mac76]

Alonso :haha:

[Mac76]

yellow for kante surely?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Someone attack it FFS!

[Marc Overmars]

Good effort from ESR

[Marc Overmars]

HT 2-2

That was fun, in a Sunday league kind of way.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-2 HT.

That was daft.

[Mac76]

good effort from the lads so far, even if a bit shaky in defence - could go either way though Chelsea have the stronger bench

[Gooner23]

Nice to see us attacking with a bit more threat. Just having a forward willing to run and stretch the oppo defence is a relief.

Jsut so frustrating that our defensive solidity has deserted us the last few games.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Why couldn't we have played anything near like this in the previous three games?

Fucking muppets.

[Bumble]

boom

[Marc Overmars]

EDDIE!!!

:haha:

[Bumble]

Why couldn't we have played anything near like this in the previous three games?

Fucking muppets.

because it we werent playing a big club

[Marc Overmars]

The defending again :haha:

[Bumble]

EDDIE!!!

:haha:

has he overtaken Laca in league goals yet

[McNamara That Ghost...]

NKETIAH!!!

So scruffy. :haha:

[Mac76]

Eddie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Few things I like to see more than Chelsea losing.

[Marc Overmars]

Imagine being Lacazette watching some pub teamer outscore you in 60 mins at Stamford Bridge.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nketiah to get the most pub hat-trick of all time. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Lukaku hauled off, Havertz on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How is it not 3-3? :lol:

[Mac76]

Werner :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Well done Eddie.

Earned himself a place for the rest of the season I think.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Smith Rowe. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Martinelli through the middle. :faint:

[Mac76]

Well done Eddie.

Earned himself a place for the rest of the season I think.

can't deny it, he's been great :clap:

[Mac76]

Arteta should also think about Pepe for Saka soon - we need Saka to play well against Man Ure

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Smith Rowe off, Cedric on to fuck it up.

[Mac76]

ESR taken off for Cedric :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Would've been another pub goal. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alonso off, Ziyech on.

[Marc Overmars]

Cedric with a shite ball across then Tavares with a pathetic effort.

Kill the bloody game off. Idiots.

[Mac76]

Nuno :ilt:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cedric and Tavares. :haha:

A well earned :doh: for both.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This has been so low quality.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Is Mount ever going to get sent off?

[Mac76]

that should be a yellow for Mount at least

[Marc Overmars]

Penalty!!!

[Bumble]

what a pathetic pen to give away haha

[McNamara That Ghost...]

PEL!

[Marc Overmars]

VAR check

[Mac76]

pel!!!

[Bumble]

boom

[Marc Overmars]

SAKA!!!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

SAKA!!!!

[Mac76]

4-2!!!! :haha:

Tuchel :pal:

[LDG]

Get the fucking fuck in

[Bumble]

it is extraordinary the recent big games City, Liverpool and now Chelsea we have actually played pretty well. but the dross teams what the hell!!!

so expect us to lose to united next.

[Marc Overmars]

What a result :haha:

Just makes the previous 3 defeats even more galling though. Got to give United a good pumping now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-4 FT. :blink:

[Mac76]

don't believe it :lol: what a game :scarf:

[Bumble]

2-4 FT. :blink:

:fingers: chelsea

[LDG]

What a result :haha:

This league isn’t full of shit teams. The money in the league and availability of good players, youth systems and trained managers, means its far more difficult than when it really was the top four and nothing else.

All teams aside from Liverpool and City have been inconsistent. They’re a huge step above, built on Money (City) and giving Klopp time and resource at Liverpool.

Arteta is by no means the finished article, but this side have me far more invested, and far more interested because of the way they play.

We can be so arrogant at times as fans. We’re still fighting for CL, and thats more than the last few years.

[Master Splinter]

Would that have been the first goal we conceded from a corner? :lol:

Mateta for Palace.
