 We never used too lose too Arsenal! 

Okay, ignoring how awful that looks when you use "too" instead of "to"  let's just fact check that

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenal_F.C.–Chelsea_F.C._rivalry

Most wins Arsenal (76)

Also here's an FA Cup final (2017): https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/39984089

and the 2002 FA Cup final...

That was the one sentence I read and I noticed it had too many twos for a sentence with tutus,

Honestly never seen such toxic mentality that reflects the decent season we've had. Filled with it on TalkChelsea. Genuinely worse than Spurs fans on their forum, and they haven't won anything. 

We deserve every bit of criticism we get as a fanbase. 

[Cicero]

 Mad we even have a friendly tomorrow, but I'd like us to play this. 

Willy

James----Guehi---Luiz---Alonso

Chalobah

Kovacic----Barkley

Pedro------------------------Willian

Left it a decade ago, worst forum to exist on the Internet.

Those kind of fans that would like us to sign Messi, Dybala, Ronaldo etc all in a single transfer window.

Well someone at the club obviously thought we wouldn't get into one. Imagine being so shit at your job to set up a friendly during the season. Even if we didn't made it we had the option to be in the Fa Cup final which is for the weekend. Imagine if that happened, playing in America on Thursday than travelling back and having less than a day of before the final. This clubs management is pure banter.

It’s still stupid to have it before a final.

Reuben Loftus-Cheek has been injured as a result of playing this match after only 20 minutes and is now a doubt for the Final..

Firstly it's the dumbest decision to play a friendly with such a huge game coming up. Not even a local one either. 

Secondly, why take such a strong squad?! Even Hazard played ffs. 

The above says it all as well. If Loftus-Cheek is out for the final that's a huge miss and serious questions would need to be asked as to the logistics and reasoning of why a friendly was played. Surely it could have been cancelled and re-arranged?

I imagine they were contracted to play certain players, for at least some of the match.

[Honey Honey]

It's a fluke, a coincidence though isn't it. These guys play football every single day.

Woke up to the news that Ruben was injured who's one of our best players these days.

We can talk about the level of the players or the manager over recent years but the club's senior decision makers have been a shambles as well.

[True Blue]

As Luke stated seen Ruben injured, also on crutches meaning the injury is severe. Fuck this final we did everything wrong going towards it. Playing a useless friendly during the season, having players injured and fatigued from the trip.

[Cicero]

It isn’t incompetence anymore. It’s pure treason. 

[True Blue]

Apparently same injury like Odoi or even worse (shit sources). Hope he can at least be ready for pre season as he will certainly lose his spot if he is dropped again. Still fuck our management, from the youth policy to the board. Incredible how badly we are managed and still get good results.

Yes. 

Hazard - 19 goals, 15 assists

Giroud - 12 goals, 4 assists

Pedro - 12 goals, 2 assists

Ruben - 10 goals, 2 assists

Willian - 6 goals, 6 assists 

 

We are genuinley Wolves/Leicester/Everton without him.

This was done for the money, but surely the money from the friendly pales in comparison to what you make in the UCL. 

I mean, imagine fucking up your side by losing an important first team player for a match that can actually give you a trophy and more importantly UCL qualification. 

Your boardroom needs a proper cleanse.

No money. It was a charity event to fight against anti semitism. Roman organised it.

Bruce Buck has stated recently that we are trying to expand in the American market. This game was part of it, as well as purchasing Pulisic, where he on record stated his purchase was purely marketing reasons.

Ruptured achilles tendon apparently for Loftus-Cheek. 

Is that the same injury Hudson-Odoi got?

Yup. 

Not to worry. We raised 4 million to fight against anti semitism though. Couldn't possibly wait until the summer. Had to be done now. Days before a European final.

Cheek's injury could have happened at any time, during training. Calm yer fucking tits.
