Not that I'm complaining but why are Chelsea being made to play on the Monday night four days prior to the boxing day fixture and playing 3 games in 6 days as opposed to everyone else playing 3 games in 8/7 days, Yet Liverpool get to play a day after Chelsea play away to Southampton which despite them playing today compensates them the extra rest day. Have I been hanging around on here too long or is there a genuine argument to be had that Chelsea have been given a slight raw deal when it comes to the holiday period fixtures?

You've been hanging around here for too long.

I don't believe there is any conspiracy against us, it's just the way the draw is. Look at it logically, the season starts on a certain day and ends on a certain day. Every club plays the same number of PL games between those days which means that we must get extra rest days at some other point in the season.

Big day for that 17 year old keeper.

this ref is very card happy

Anybody see Jeremy Menez's sorcery? How on EARTH he got this in the net, I have no idea! Shame it was disallowed.

Hes a witch, burn him....

Hes a witch, burn him....

 

Racist

THAT IS A GORGEOUS COUNTER

That was amazing by Johnson, he made it all and buried it. Fantastic effort

How is it that dear old Gus manages to pull these games out of his arse.....

Newcastle put more effort in to beating us than they did beating their arch rivals.

 

c**ts.

looks like sunderland have gotten the better of newcastle for the past few games. Good on them. 

Would love to see Arsenal batter Liverpool today. Don't like Arsenal but this is an exception.

Hoping for a score draw myself

I hate both teams but Liverpool can get f**ked.

A win-win for us tonight.

 

If Arsenal lose, we get to see Claude.

If Liverpool lose, RAWK will be juicy.

 

A draw would be boring I guess, but I doubt that will happen.

Coming to think of it Joey, I do fancy a meltdown on ArsenalfansTV.

 

Oh so much to choose from, it's actually got that point were a draw would be a DISASTER.

 

How sh*t of an outcome would that be.

A draw wouldn't be so bad I suppose

 

That much further away from the Mighty Chels

I made a similar complaint in the match day thread. I don't think it's a conspiracy, but it is certainly unfair. You get to play on a Saturday at 12:45 and we play on a Monday at 8pm, why couldn't Chelsea play on a Saturday at 5:30pm ? no other prem games were on at that time so they could easily have fit it in. A Monday night game just before the boxing day fixtures is really dumb.

Hope the gunners destroy arsenal. Sanchez hatrick please

Now that would be fun to watch, Arsenal destroying themselves

Well yeah sure but think on I'm ordering tonight and having a drink

 

I can't think logically right now.

Markovic at wing-back?

Now that would be fun to watch, Arsenal destroying themselves [emoji3]

Haha oops!

Bloody hell, does Rodgers ever show sides respect?

 

I'll be very surprised if Arsenal don't win this game, they've gone 3 at the back with not exactly great covering, Stevie in the middle as usual and Markovic on the left.

Liverpool are getting quite significantly out-sung by Arsenal fans... how f**king humiliating.
