Panna King 1,012 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 If Arsenal didn't need to win this game so bad to get Champions League football, the right thing would be for Arsenal and Chelsea to boycott this final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Blue 971 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Kovačić, Jorginho and Barkley you can taste the creativity. On a serious note this midfield will be raped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carefreeluke 722 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 We haven't had this much bad luck with injuries in ages. Hudson-Odoi, Loftus-Cheek, Kanté, Rudiger all out. The first three are actually pivotal to us as well. It's true that it remains to be seen if Kanté is actually out but the reports don't look good.

I will be honest I am not expecting much from this sadly... If we win then great obviously, but if we lost I wouldn't be surprised, key players missing and more importantly players that could make a difference on the night... We still have a decent squad on paper but how creative and defensively solid we end up being is anybody's guess.. Just hope they put in a decent fighting performance..

True Blue 971 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Think it would be a good option to pair Azpilicueta and Luiz at CB as Christensen is shaky as tits. With Emerson/Alonso and Zappacosta covering the flanks. Won't happen tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaaay AFC 357 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I'd feel a lot more comfortable if we had Ramsey available always causes Chelsea problems and he was so important in our victory over them earlier in the season. He nullified Jorginho whilst creating an attacking threat. I presume Emery will go with Özil which is a worry because I'd imagine Jorginho will be given the whole pitch similar to the game at the Bridge. Going to be a tough one, I feel this is massively in the hands of Hazard though. Our right side is pretty weak defensively, so if he turns up I feel it will be curtains for us. Going to be a close one, hopefully we can do it although as proven this season and over the last few years this team usually collapses when the pressure is on.

All the mood music around Chelsea is bad at the moment, even if they win I think it's likely Sarri will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video they showed cuts immediately to Sarri's reaction. Playing it out as if the Luiz/Higuain incident had him leave the training session in frustration. The media are so desperate to see him sacked. Full video. You can clearly see, the players leave before him. His frustration is down to not being able to train set-plays as it remained open to media.

I'd imagine the hierarchy of Chelsea will be quite worried to have a manager embarrassing the club like that. Imagine if Mourinho had done it.

I'm not justifying his behavior. Merely defending what actually happened vs what the media interpreted. Chelsea hierarchy feeling embarrassed. That's gold. Should remind them of the Drinkwater deal.

Video clearly shows all of the players finishing training with Sarri behind them. Don't have to be an expert to see the media are painting something that didn't happen.
