I've no objection, though I've not seen much of Chelsea at all this season so don't really know what to expect, I don't doubt though that this is a game they will raise themselves for

I'd like to see Ram for this one after Raya's messups against Citeh but that won't happen i suspect, especially with the Sevilla game shortly afterwards where I've no doubt Arteta will be wanting Raya to feature

And even if Saka is technically 'fit' we shouldn't start him against Chelsea

Disagree RE: Partey. Prior to the Man City game…where he had a twenty minute cameo and played well. He was slotted in at right back by genius. And I’d still say overall has been less of a problem for us than Jorginho for whom starting will necessarily negate much of our ability to get forward because of how badly he could get exposed for pace it has to be Partey. Arteta chose Jorginho against city because the primary aim was taking the sting out of City and then putting on a player with more legs later on. I think we can and should show more ambition than that against Chelsea
