Surely it is a bit negative of Chelsea considering money is no option

[Hodgson for Chelsea]

To play with four central midfielders at home to Arsenal. Surely if you can afford anyone you'd play with some more width in midfield? Papers are saying they will line up with Makelele Essien Ballack Lampard.

 

I hope they get thrashed by attacking play down the flanks and Cashley gets a red card.

In the grand scheme of things, don't want those fvckin Mancs getting another title, so surely the Russians have to win. I mean, the papers will have a 16 page spread, it'll be like a souvenier edition, on the Mancs tomorrow, if they keep this 9 point lead.

I'm hoping the mancs will fall away with injuries later on in the season. If they win the league it will be unbearable I agree, especially as they would be appraoching our title haul. I just cant stand Chelsea, at least when Real Madrid were winning European cups spending huge amounts of money they played exciting attacking football.

Don't really know who I want to be successful in this game. 60% Chelsea, 40% Arsenal I think.

but thats how they play almost every game now, you can't be surprised by it can you?

 

Maybe it's arsenal who are negative only playing with one striker - AGAIN

[Joxer]

Its tough to know who id want to win this one.

Not too bad a game so far though.

[Benitez]

winds me up this surrounding the referee lark they do

 

He should book every one of the fecers that are there in his face.

Completely agree. Bookings for anyone but the skipper talking to the referee, booking for anyone that waves an imaginary card and automatic red for anyone swearing at the ref.

 

The cn*ts would soon stop.

No surprise, but when they go on about how great they are and then field such a negative side at home it annoys me.

 

I agree with the comments re the referee BTW, someone has to stamp that out, if you swear at the ref you are off, if you are not the captain and you surround the ref you are off.

 

EDIT - Chelsea bring on SWP and Robben realising the negative tactics have resulted in no goals!

a good game has broken out

[Benitez]

underserved goal for Arsenal

[DonRafa]

Haha! Gunners score!

[Benitez]

that Hilario is crap, should have saved that.

[Guest Scot]

If it stays this way we'll see the real measure of Chelsea. They're not front-running early, they're the ones under pressure.

[Benitez]

wow, superb dive that by Drogba, one of his best.

[crisps]

looks like super obi mikel coming on

[Benitez]

Hleb blasts inexplicably over. C*nt.

[LondonLiverpoolFan]
