FUUUUUUUUUUCK

Anyone with any doubts over them should be nursed ahead of the cup final. Our season is either a success or failure depending on winning that final or not.

I hope these Chelsea players don’t have the same mentality. I want us to beat Arsenal back to back like they did to us last season.

Agreed !

Too many changes for my taste. Why is Sarr in when we have Thiago Silva who only played ten minutes at the weekend? Especiallly with Rudiger  already  out.

It feels as if TT decided to rotate the team for this fixture, which is odd. Arsenal are desperate for points and I hope we're ready for the battle.

We didn't really come to win this. The stadium is half empty, we fielded a suspect XI and Arsenal absolutely need the points.

Wonder if the reports of Rudiger’s agent wanting to hurry his contract along, for fear of him getting injured has carried any weight in leaving him out? He picked up a small groin strain on Sunday

Maybe. He won't get an offer from Chelsea till new owners are in, which is now speculated as June. If he is back in talks with Real he may have been advised not to risk any small injuries.

How many thumbs up will he give 

Over or Under 15?

More thumbs than touches that's for sure ... :-)

If I am right and Liverpool are winning the cup final then yes,

They should leave the gates open after kick off. 

This should be an easy game 

none of those arsenal players would start in the palace team, maybe Ramsdale

Not convinced by the defence ... nor the attack ... and particularly not the midfield pairing ... LOL.

3-0 to us

Other than that, you're happy with the team, right 

Why is there so many empty seats ?

Will that be the case for the rest of our home games this season?

Thought that was another Alons-goal. 

Almost an assist for Lukaku 😅

Mendy gets a thumbs up LOL

Only about 4 Chelsea fans there and they’re still out singing the Arsenal support 

Great save with his legs from Mendy!

Everton losing 1-0. 

Whenever we attack Lukaku is nowhere to be seen. He absolutely disappears.

A real conceptual battle tonight with Bukayo Saka in what future football historians will refer to as the hybrid "Loftus-Cheek role".
