Chelsea (A)

[falkirk goon]

Their boss is a tactically aware bumhole...our boss is a tactically inept bumhole....we will get bumholed

[trustno10]

Don't boo Cesc he deserves better than RVP or Nasri.

Chavs are a far more disgusting club than the other two, I don't care if he went there indirectly. Hope Flamini knocks the little rat out cold

sadly this.

as per my prediction i think we're better up front, but what else has changed from the 6-0 - defence ? nope. DM ? nope. wengers tactics ? nope.

the chavs are actually better without Luiz, and mourinho will be working for three days on getting costa on Pers wrong side, because although positionally good, Per turns like an oil tanker; matic will niggle jack, deny him time and draw fouls,; the wide midfielders will stay up when our two FB's go forward and when lose the ball, cesc or matic will put it out wide behind gibbs and chambers to hazard or willian and it'll be 3 v 2...

chavs will go two up in 25 mins, jack'll get one back, they'll get a 3rd before HT allowing wonga to claim "we were still in the game at HT..." , they'll get another, so will we and at 4-2 we'll give away a penalty or a red - jack or Ox, they'll get 5, we'll get another with 15 to go, which will make maureen angry, and they'll get another, then dogba will come on and finish the rout.

7-3, i told ya. it is written.

Szczesny
Chambers Mertesacker Koscielny Gibbs
Wilshere Flamini
Chamberlain Ozil Sanchez
Welbeck

My worry is that our players will be shitting themselves in light of last season's result; I think we'll be hesitant and nervous to begin with and Chelsea will be flying at us - if they score early, brace yourselves. ..We'll be completely rattled and they may go up 3 before half time.

In saying that, if we can maintain composure and keep it level for the first 20 or so minutes anything can happen - I have a feeling that we may take the lead via Welbeck and give Mourinho something to think about.

Fancy a 2-2.

Sanchez and Welbeck to score.

Isnt it the player that gets booed not the team though

As mentioned many a time on here seems that Barca didnt want him, and AW wouldnt have him back, so what is the guy supposed to do

[augie]

I agree with McD's earlier comments although he has been quite pessimistic of late

Think wenker's line up will be something like this -

Chesney
Chambers BFG kos Gibbs
Flamoney wilshere
Ox cazorla ozil (yes I expect him to be shunted wide again)
Wellbeck (although I wouldn't be shocked if le postman started there)

I do worry that costa will takeover dogbreath's raping of our backline - his movement could be too much for BFG and his strength will do kos
Flamoney will be all loved up to his buddy Cesc, and will stand off him as he tears us apart
Hazard will try to take advantage of chambers inexperience and rashness in the tackle, whilst the German dirk kuyt (schurrle) will tear Gibbs a new one
Ozil's defensive awareness will be zero and ivanovic will muscle him off the ball every single time he gets it
Matic will clatter cazorla early and might take a yellow for it, but he will have cazorla in his pocket for the rest of the game

If we concede early then we can expect another thrashing and that's for sure - hold out for most of first half and we might get away with 3-1 defeat but if they score early it will be 4-2 or 4-1 I think that they will have the game secured early and moaninho's tactics at that point will depend on our upcoming fixture list - if he feel's that we are soon to play one of his rivals, then he will not want to destroy our confidence before those games and will back off at 3-1 - if our upcoming fixtures is irrelevant to him then he will go all out to expose le cock once again

[Chippy]

Bloody hell there are a lot of you (well two) giving minute by minute predictions. Mine? We'll lose.

Agree He isn't leBron, choosing where he plays, he went where a manager wanted him, was he meant to retire when AW wouldn't have back.

I think if people are going to boo or attack Fabregas it won't be for joining Chelsea, it will be for the way he silently engineered his move out of the club with his Barca pals doing the dirty work in the media.

We will lose, anything under 2 nil will be a good result, sadly, Wenger is Mourhino's butch.

[VAVAVOOM 14]

Yes, he's acquitted himself well so far but the prospect of Chambers against Hazard is slightly disconcerting.

[xgtdec]

plus its only Thursday and my gut churns at the thought of watching this.....and its the gut churning like the spuds game where your sorta nervous about getting a win...its churning at the thought of another hiding and everything that comes with it.....im not able for this

That would be his hometown club from whom we regularly rob young players. Pot - kettle.

Few clubs could've afforded his wages and he's got to play somewhere. I do think his last six months with us were poor, but overall he was a great player for us. The Nutty Professor made a huge mistake not bringing him back.

[Dan_85]

"And it's Hazard bombing down the wing again..... crosses.... and it's a hat trick for Fabregas!"

"'Arsene Wenger we want you to stay', cry the chelsea fans"

"5-0 down, a bemused Arsene Wenger lashes out at a nearby water bottle"

We're gonna get fucking steamrollered.

[Gunner Rob]

if we can get Sanchez, Ozil and Welbeck to link up like last night then we could score a couple of goals.
bad news though is that I expect us to concede 4 or 5 at the other end

prediction 2-5 defeat

Wenger will say this is an improvement on last season

[SPUDMASHER]

We're gonna leave their ground feeling like we've had a night out in Bangkok with a wallet full of wonga.

We're gonna get royally fucked
