I can just imagine it

Arsenals win in the FA Cup managed to buy Wenger a stay of execution after a fairly woeful season but if we won this he would be straight back to square one with the 'Wenger Out' banners flying even before the season has even properly kicked off... 

Should have beaten you in the Cup but had that silly walk in the park mentality after winning the league and got what we deserved from it which was fuck all!

Defeat in this won't affect Arsene Wenger in the slightest if Arsenal sign a player or players that lift morale with the fans.  But if the same happens as has been for so long, then it will whip up a storm.  But the reality is that he will be judged on the Premier League season by the fans.  Not that it will matter if we are shrouded in mediocrity at the end of the season, even if it's "successful" mediocrity in qualifying for the Champions League.

Will Diego Costa play in this if he's still around after Conte told him he's a dog faced cunt that needs to fuck off or have Chelsea already moved past him and don't consider him to be a part of the new season's preparations?

Batshuayi

Pedro/Boga------------------Willian

Alonso----------Cesc-----Kante----Azpilicueta

Cahill----------Luiz-----------Rudiger

Courtois 

 

Team I'd put out. Batshuayi has been on fire and deserves a start.  Pedro depending on his fitness. Boga has looked decent in pre-season, just needs to work on his end product.

Pedro will probably wear a mask and i doubt he wasn't training at Cobham. That Cesc - Kante will get murdered, Cesc apart from being a great player is probably the slowest person in London. Michy earned a start, if Morata does i think Conte will make a mistake. Still needs time to settle and Michy is in his full power and knows the team.

Cringed when he was playing LW. Why play our most expensive signing out of position?

Seriously lacking numbers at the moment. We could play a 3-5-2 but Cesc and Kante are our only CM. You could add Baker but he played at wing all pre-season.

He started Morata at the wing to get minutes, and Michy didn't deserve to be dropped. Enjoying the social media experts, flop after 70 minutes of pre season football.

He will miss or play a few minutes on Sunday, as Conte suggested he didn't train long enough with the team and he isn't fit enough. I would start Michy any how, knows the team and he is looking sharp and fit.

Got no idea what to expect. The Huddersfield in pre season have looked a lot more attacking than they ever did last season, and there fans are going to treat the occasion like a party. This could be the worst time to play them.

Huddersfield & Brighton will surprise a few this season.

Most writing them off for relegation before a ball has even been kicked, two good managers with sides that play good football. I personally think there's worse teams in the league than both.
