I'm actually more surprised that Ramires doesn't start.. Baba was ok going forward but did get exposed against a weak opposition defensively on Wednesday, so it became who out the two weaker defensive members does he go for? Jose was always going for tried and trusted.

Well after seeing that lineup I can't say I'm as confident as I was before, but we really need to pull something out of the bag here or we are in serious serious trouble

i expected ivan starting, but dropping JT again and baba not even on the bench is beyond me

Chelsea to win 1-0 in the 90th minute and Mourinho to knee slide into Wenger's technical area.

I would love to see Mourinho do that, i think Wenger would spontaneously combust

Sounds good to me!

Ivanovic to score a hattrick and celebrate by inviting every ShedEnd member down the pub for a knees-up

I've backed Chelsea to win today, in a bet (part of an accumulator). I've just got a feeling that you'll beat the Gooners. Good luck to CFC.

 

 

Not confident at all with that lineup, but we'll see what transpires...

 

Hopefully we'll see Pedro tracking back to help Brano, but for 90 minutes it's a given that he'll be exposed 1 v 1 at some point.

 

Arsenal 3-0

 

 

With that line-up, Chelsea 1 - 4 Arsenal. Dis f**king grace.

 

it comes to something when the Spuds fan has more faith in us than our own

6-0 win here we come! 

 

Chelsea to repeat what happened on March 22 2014! You have to be optimistic!

I'm just regurgitating something I saw on Twitter but could JT not starting be something to do with Walcott? Zouma would be able to keep pace with him but Terry certainly wouldn't be able to

Wow. Ivan is back and JT on the bench. Those are some big, big calls. Not feeling confident with our defence but I'm much happier to see Oscar in the starting lineup.

Ivanovic vs Sanchez.

im fairly confident that the pace of their attack is the only reason that zouma is in ahead of JT

Happy with the front four, I always feel better about our side with Oscar starting... Could easily have been Ramires starting today which would have screamed negativity.

Wonder if both Pedro and Oscar are fit enough to play the full 90 though.

If ivan is at fault for any goals today then he and jose can pack there bags and run off into the sunset holding hands!!! KTBFFH...

For those of you with Amazon boxes, the first stream on Pheonix TV is superb!

Indeed. But the press will push the whole "rift" with Jose angle instead, of course...

anyone got a good stream for the game?

JT played against Walcott countless times, if I'm not mistaken he started for them in the CS and didn't get a kick. Cahill struggles a lot more anyway so I don't see this as justification. Looks like a terrible decision now, hopefully it looks better in two hours.

Hands up who's nervous?

No Rahman on the bench..

So we change it up win 4-0 then revert back to the same problematic losing back and centre I'm puzzled, maybe Jose is sick of us. 

Back when Ivanovic was so good. :'(

All the talking stops now, let's do this

Relax mate, we're going to win this 2-0.
