It will be just classic if Drogba saved his goal to score against Arsenal

That would make me so happy. Thought he was going to yesterday a couple of times.

Costa to score first against the run of play.

 

Fabregas to gut-punch Arsenal early in the second half.

 

Drogba to come on for Costa and net against Arsenal at the death and give Wenger the finger while jumping into the away end.

If we can win this game and the next away to Leicester, that will give us the last 4 games to give other players a chance to play some football, which would be fantastic for those players, and it also gives us the supporters some interest in the last few games.

I hate the mentality of you people lately of being happy with a draw. Nothing less than a win would do us.

 

We are very much capable of beating these sh*tc**ts.

 

I hope Costa and Remy are fit for this one.

 

Courtois

Brana-Cahill-Terry-Azpi

Fabregas-Matic

Willian-Oscar-Hazard

Costa.

 

Press them hard they'll make mistake and pounce them on it. No Ramires please he's horsecrap player. 1-0/2-0 Chelsea. C'mon you blues.

A draw would absolutely do for me, it would as good as wrap up the title. 

Really want us to win this one, we can take our foot off the gas a little bit at Leicester then. 

 

At risk of sounding controversial I hope we can give Leicester a point to aid their survival hopes. Plus, that means that when we beat Palace at home the following game Liverpool have to give us a guard of honor.  :laugh2:

 

Take a draw.

Please be fit Costa or Remy!

 

2-0 Hazard and Drogba

 

This is Arsenal, and he is Drogba, the thorn in Mr. Wenger's side.

 

We beat QPR with Drogba, and we beat United with Drogba. You know if he plays Didier is going to score in this game. Unlike QPR I was confident in Didier yesterday and he did what was asked of him, against the Arsenal on his second favourite ground I have the utmost confidence in him.

That would be my side. Hopefully Remy is fit enough for the bench but I do not think we should rush Costa back. Even if we lose this game we are still 7 clear of them with 15 points left to play for. So we could go on to win the title by beating 3 of any of the remaining Leicester, Liverpool, Crystal Palace, West Brom or Sunderland.

 

Of course it would be nice to beat them in their own back yard again but we do not want to risk turning Costa in to Torres by rushing him back from this latest injury. Stoke was a mistake, we do not want Jose repeating. We are in a very good position, no need to make panic moves.

 

In Didier and Jose I trust.

Nice nod to Drogba, oh how I want him and Costa to score.

If Remy is fit he plays. Drogba has been awful for almost all of this season and that included yesterday. It's sad to see at times.

Against most opposition I would agree blue daze, but you cannot forget what Didier does to them. Even at 37 years old, the sight of him in our shirt will bring back nightmares to their defenders.

The Drogba thing sounds nice but if you are level headed you will know he's not good enough to lead the line these days,.

Not his fault of course but we need our two other strikers back ASAP.

I think this will be the time Wenger gets one over on Jose. But we should still be able to win the league regardless.

Will it though? Chambers and Debuchy are new to Arsenal, as is Bellerin . Koscielny joined the season before Drogba left and Mertesacker joined in Drogba's last season. 

 

They'd much rather face him than Costa.

Mertesacker is the one defender he might actually beat in a race but I still worry. I always thought his touch and physicality would remain after his pace and stamina went, but yesterday he seemed so knackered that he even struggled with the basic things.

 

I'd rather have Remy up top just to keep their defenders honest.

He does not do much, that is what Mr. Wenger once said of Drogba right? His ghost still haunts their stadium, any promise of better days he destroyed. Well him, Jose and the rest of the team. Mostly Didier though.
 
I know it makes no logical sense but this is Arsenal, and this is Drogba. He loves facing them, no matter who is in their side. I know he is not the same level as Costa anymore. Do not think me blind, but I cannot help but remember what Didier was capable of, and what he did every single time he faced Arsenal.

Not sure who plays up top will be key to our chances to be honest.

 

Will come down to a couple of things, just like yesterday:

 

1) We defend well as a team, we will not lose. If we do not we will lose.

2) If we do defend well then whether we win or draw is down to Hazard. He plays well he will get us a winner, if he does not best we can hope for is the draw.

Phew. Finally I can relax... Maybe this is a tad premature, but I think we've done it now (I can't see Jose allowing us to let a 10 point lead slip). I don't think we need to win this game, a point would be enough for me. The only hopes Arsenal have of winning the title ride on them beating us, so I think we should be happy with a point. Nevertheless, it would, of course, be sweet to win at the Emirates, but it's not really necessary... I think we're being a little greedy wanting to win the title at Leicester. Personally, I'd be happy to win it against Palace. Either way, Liverpool will have to give us a guard of honour (at least I think they will, I'm not sure if it only applies away from home).

 

It's great to be a Chelsea fan at this time, as the whole media are LIVID about us beating United. They'd have given anything to see us slip up, haha. But we didn't. And now I can't help but think the job's done... It's now not a matter of IF we'll win the title, it's WHEN we'll win the title.

 

KTBFFH.

Expect the same game plan, Jose will try nullifying their biggest threat - Sanchez. I think Ramires will start in place of Zouma, hopefully Remy will be fit. However I wouldn't be surprised if Drogba start again. Arsenal has to win, expect them to press high and leave rooms behind for us. They are a better team than the one we beat last year, so I expect a tough game, think it will be a draw and Wenger will be satisfied with the progress of his team. 

I think this will be the time Wenger gets one over on Jose. But we should still be able to win the league regardless.

Aren't you the one who said "congrats Man City on your title win" a few games ago?

Fabregas to score a 95th minute winner, throw off his mask, kiss the shirt and jump into the away fans.

 

 

With an offside handball.

 

After we've sat with 10 men on the edge of the box for 94 minutes and haven't played it outside of our own half once until the goal.

Got a feeling Oscar will score in this one.

Just don't lose and the title is good as won.

Wonder if we will use the same tactics as United, can't think who Zouma would man mark though? Carzola?

Zouma was there to take out Utds long ball tactics and match Fellainis physicality. I doubt he plays this one.

He's played the same sort of position in other games agaisnt the big teams though who don't play long ball football so what was the thinking behind that?

Not to worried about this one. Think we have the set up to deal with Arsenal and create problems for them. I'm actually more worried about liverpools visit to the bridge and their small team mentality coming in to play. And sunderland - oh sunderland how do I not want to see them ever again!! 

 

Don't think Zouma will play this one either, think we will see a return to Williian and Oscar in the side, but who knows
