What do we think? 4-3-3 or a back three with Madueke at right wing-back and Aubameyang and Sterling up front in a two?

Baffling that Kovačić is still starting - put the poor bar steward out of his misery (and get Gallagher out there).

Hopefully Madueke and Aubameyang can live up to the hype.

Back 4 to please Pochettino. Not sure why he’s started Kovacic again

I like the line up apart from Sterling. I may even have been excited if Mudryk was starting instead of him.

Looking at that Arsenal line up and ‘m thinking how the f*ck are they top of league? That team looks like a CL place contender at best.

Neither Madueke or PEA have started much so perhaps developing an understanding on the sidelines.

It is surprising and would be great for PEA to score early and wind up the North London mob.

Martinelli doesn’t start 

Well that’s good then. 
 

Honestly, a win here and I’m happy even if we lose the rest of the games this season. Feels a bit like the 2-2 against Spurs back in 2016. Also Ba/Slippy G. Not that we should stoop to that level of pettiness, but still. Denting Arsenal’s title hopes would give me that warm cocoa on a cold winters day feeling.

Does Sterling have naked pictures of Frank?

I hope the game is so sh*te it sends me to sleep, I’m knackered!

They haven’t played much so I don’t expect them to set the world alight. They are lacking match fitness 

More positive lineup. Hopefully we can play on the front foot, cause problems and create plenty of chances.

Will it be a penalty or a rare open-play goal for Jorginho? 

Penalty I reckon.

Just seen that Drogba has been selected and we are already 3-0 up.

 

Would have preferred Gallagher to Kova and Mudryk for Sterling, otherwise decent enough team

I’m putting more effort in to this tricky poo than I expect any of our players to put in on the pitch (they’ll just be sh*t rather than doing a sh*t).

English? 

Is it bad to actually feel defeated before the match even starts?

Just familiar

f**k Off Kovacic And Sterling Starting Both Been Piss Poor, Prefer Mudryk And Zakaria Starting Instead Of Those 2

English and Todd's first signing?

Seriously I can see Raheem tearing it up tonight. He must be relishing having a run at Jorginislow.

I find it liberating. You can only laugh at the fickle fortune of fate. 

4-1 Arsenal. The positive is us scoring once.

I feel Gallagher is not chelsea quality and will never be so don't know why some people feel like starting Gallagher. Kovacic is going this summer hopefully so he shouldn't start either.
