Duncan_K Posted 12 May 2021 Share Posted 12 May 2021 7 changes for Chelsea and 5 for Arsenal. Almost like rotation is normal. Chelsea's rotated team looks way stronger than the Arse though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinceNoir Posted 12 May 2021 Share Posted 12 May 2021 15 minutes ago, tickler28 said: No way....a Chelsea victory is much better for us How so? I’ve seen people say this but I don’t understand it. If Arsenal get anything tonight, we can guarantee top 4 (most likely also top 3) by beating Chelsea next week. I somewhat get the whole play for a draw thing, but for that scenario to play out, we’re also depending on Liverpool losing tomorrow night. And I’m not at all certain that’ll happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fazzyfox Posted 12 May 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 12 May 2021 I see that Ajax have melted down their trophy to produce "Champion Stars", souvenirs for their season ticket holders. Taking inspiration from this Spurs are hiring a Fondue set. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 12 May 2021 Share Posted 12 May 2021 I can’t decide what the best result is for us so for once, I’m just going to sit back and enjoy the game ...... maybe with an eye on Saturday, a comfortable arsenal win against a string Chelsea line up would be good ????

NewEnglandFox Posted 12 May 2021 Share Posted 12 May 2021 Chelsea dropping points tonight is tremendously beneficial to us. Because then we can beat them to secure a finish above them next week which is basically interchangeable with a top 4 finish. There are 2 paths to the top 4: finish above Chelsea or Liverpool. Route for the outcome that gives us more options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is why tonight does matter. If Liverpool lose to Man Utd we're looking good no matter what. But what if they win? We'd certainly look at tonight and wish Chelsea had dropped points, allowing a win or maybe even draw against them to clinch. If CHE win tonight + LIV win tomorrow we're looking at needing 4 points from the last 2. If Chelsea drop points today there are so many more paths to get CL. I don't buy the fantasy that Chelsea effectively throw their game against us if they've already clinched. And again, WHAT IF LIVERPOOL WIN. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zear0 Posted 12 May 2021 Share Posted 12 May 2021 Awful from Mari there. Backed away from the pass and half tackled. Equally poor finish from Havertz too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post turlo Posted 12 May 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 12 May 2021 Chelsea dropping points and having to run their bollocks off is the best result here. A defeat against Arsenal would dent their sky high confidence and could be the start of a bad run like it did before Christmas. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
