Going to enjoy this one.

Another hiding at Stamford Bridge is in order methinks. If we put six past this lot last season with the striking options we had I can't imagine what the score will be this time if that same Arsenal side show up. In all due seriousness it pays to be cautious and a better Arsenal may well show up but no matter where you look we outclass them all over the park in practically every capacity. 

 

This could really go two ways; either they hold firm and keep the scoreline down or we gut-punch them early like we did last time and go to town on them. 

 

Could be anywhere between 2-0 to 6-0 to us.

 

Costa to bag a few, Drogba to get his obligatory goal against Wenger, and for Fabregas to utterly finish them off.

 

Also, it looks as though Arsenal will be missing both Ramsey and Arteta...

tad bit early Izanagi, but it is the goonies. Hey were is red&white? it's us, city & le arse right? I missed that fool. I guess after losing 6-0 he couldn't stand us any longer. I don't blame him. Hey people going to the match, can you throw some k/y jelly for the gooners after our first goal? It will help them get properly lubed

Ah yeah, my bad. Somehow forgot we face Sporting Lisbon this week in the CL. 

 

Still, good to get a discussion going on a game like this as soon as possible. Arsenal forums have threads going and they don't sound very optimistic.

Some real belters there.

Win this and go 9 ahead of them after 7 games? Yes please!

 

Really hope we can continue our good form, but before I really think ahead to this one we badly need 3 points in Lisbon.

He was banned

He was banned

 

Really? Mods can we remove his ban so we can abuse him more?

Hold ya horses mate

Ramsey and Arteta are out according to Weger. So it means they'll either start with Flamini-Wilshere or Flamini-Diaby in CM.

Cesc against the Arse. Expect to hear some noise from the away section

Really hope we win this one, have to admit I'm already feeling the nerves for this one.

Me too, it's the game I always want us to win more than any other

Second only to the scousers for me both simalar clubs always talk about the Liverpool arsenal way and both talk about history and both sets of fans are bitter and deluded. Woolich arsenal what a bunch of Dick's

Just posted this in another thread, but I think Costa is going to destroy the Arsenal defence.

 

Keep in mind Ramsey, Arteta and Wilshere all picked up injuries and will miss the game.

 

Add those 3 to Giroud, Sanogo, Walcott, Diaby and Debuchy and I think it's going to be a great game for us.

Arsenal's squad could potentially be a bit thin with injuries but you can never take them lightly.

Hopefully Wenger has them playing a high line again which will suit us just fine.

Could be a big game for Hazard with Debuchy injured he might get some joy down the left.

Fabregas will either play a blinder or the occasion will get the better of him against his former team... I fully expect him to be booed for the full 90 by the gooners.

Be interesting to see how our defense copes with Sanchez, we've not really come up against someone of his quality at home yet so hopefully we don't give him too much space.

Cesc will score

I'm going to be at this game, can't wait! But first Chelsea must succes against Sporting..

Having Drogba scoring against them will be classic lol

I used to hate le arse. It was gooners that first told me that CFC have no history. It was the gooners that said CFC are not a big club. It was the gooners that said CFC is not a real football club & just buy trophies. However this past 8 years things have really turned. CFC always seem to handle their business vs the goonies. We always seem to smash them up. Ok maybe not under AVB, but all of the other gaffers had success against them. So now I just laugh at those comments. I don't take le arse seriously anymore. IMHO they are like QPR or West Ham. Yes they can make it to the Top 4, but that is all. Ok they got lucky in the FAC, but again I don't take them seriously anymore. So what I am trying persuade you two to do is let your hate go. Be Carefree like the Rest of CFC. You will be a better person for it :D

We should just completely batter them.. they'll be playing without a recognized defensive midfielder since Arteta is out and Ramsey is also a huge blow.

Ramsey being out might be a good thing for Arsenal, actually. He's been completely undisciplined this season, determined to score no matter what and leaving the midfield open and unprotected.

So he's playing like everyone else in the Arsenal team then?
