One of our bogey sides this afternoon. Add to the mix Rafa Benitez who loves causing us grief and it looks like we could be in for a Battle Royale against Newcastle. They were very unlucky against Spurs and should have ended up with at least a point. This will be a tough match and our defense will need to improve if we are to get anything out of this match.. Hazard and Kova will start on the bench I reckon. Sarri needs to bring them on a,s,a,p second half. It's going to be tough but fingers crossed. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

What a match? Kovacs looks very good as did Barklay. Luiz was a weak link and we need a centre back. Great football but poor defensively. This needs to be worked on. Great win.

ALONSO !!! Hang onto this lead FFS!!!

Their wingers are causing us damage. We need to cut off the supply from the wings and Bring on Hazard and Kovacs. Kante needs to be more disciplined and break this play up with that midfield. We look frail at the back. Back four need to work harder or we will lose this match.

WE look weak defensively.

SH*T !!! Willian loses ball and they score. Arsenal don't deserve it.

Moratta !!! Unbelievable. Get a third and wrap this game up.

PEDRO !!!!

Where is everybody today? There's nobody on this thread.

Here we go, match day is here. Kante Georgie and Kovacs in midfield. Hazard Moratta and Willian upfront. Dave, Luiz, Rudiger and Alonso at the back. Kepa in goal. This could be a difficult one with their attack. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

We didn't see SarriBall today but that's to be expected. We kept a clean sheet but need to move the ball quicker and more precisely. Second half we were better without being exceptional. This is Huddersfield don't forget. Against Man City, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal or Man Utd we will find it tougher. When everybody is singing from the same hymn sheet then we will see SarriBall in full effect. Let's hope it doesn't take long to implement.

No, he worked hard but he lacks flair like too many English players. He did a job today but I doubt he will be a star.

Pedro !!! Game Over.

Alonso hits the bar.

Sarri has only had 3 days with the squad alll together. He looked frustrated on the touchline. We need to move the ball quicker and get that all important third goal.

Don't speak too soon.

That was a penalty alright. Ref got it spot on. I have watched the replays. 100% penalty.

Georgie !!! Nice penalty. 2-0 up and we haven't played well.

KANTE !!! GET IN THERE !!!

Sarri's baptism of fire into the Premiership. He will learn that even lowly teams like Huddersfield are capable of beating us. They are a tough nut to crack at home plus they have strengthened their squad. Take nothing for granted.

He's injured.

Rudiger with Luiz in central defense, Alonso and Dave either side, Kepa in goal, our midfield trio of excellence in midfield, Hazard Giroud and Willian upfront. We need to win this one. Start off with 3 points. and lay down a marker. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

No chance.

This could be a long season. We have failed to strengthen our squad, we have Moratta as main striker LOL, we have Caballero who could be NO 1 Keeper LOL, we have Bakayoko in midfield LOL. Man City are streaks ahead of us and I can only see one outcome today. This is all down to the board and Abramovic. They should all hang their heads in shame. COME ON YOU BLUES !!!

Hope not.
