Arsenal v Chelsea May 2nd 20.00 PM GMT KO

Clrnc

Anyway to also give everyone some perspective in who we are facing tonight...

Chelsea's run of form: In their last 29 matches, they have only won 5 matches. In that run, they have only scored more than 1 goal twice, didn't score in 17 of those matches.

These sorts of starts pre-game never end well for us.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Clrnc that 2-2 in late 2004 when we had young Cesc and Flamini was an epic.

Panda

Team needs refreshing.

Had enough of seeing pretty much the same lineup that have managed 3/12pts in the last 4 games.

Change something Arteta.

goon

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Jorginho starts

No Martinelli, Partey or Holding

Pepe LeFrits

Kiwior and Trossard also start.

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Pepe LeFrits

Holding dropped. 2 games too late.

Interested to see the Pole. Good that Arteta being flexible for once #leftfootedcbs

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Pepe LeFrits hope Leo is at 9 with Jesus on the left.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Kiwior at RCB. Wow.

KingslandBarge

Jorginho in is both amusing and harrowing at the same time. I am concerned we'll be overrun, especially with Kante. Kiwior's recovery pace should mean we can keep a better line (spaces in between, straightness, advancement). Come on lads snap the skid.

USArsenal

KingslandBarge Well, the way Partey has been playing the last couple of games, I don't see how Jorginho could be worse. And maybe he has something to prove to Chelsea (hopefully)...

Worried about Kiwior though. Such little game time and when he did, he didn't exactly set the world on fire.

Happy to see Tross in there though. Although i would've played Martinelli up front and put Tross in for Jesus.

USArsenal

Pretty strong bench, especially attacking-wise.

Big Willie

Sicario has his Kiwi starting.

Panda

Interesting changes. Don't think I would have gone with Kiwior and Jorginho but I won't complain seeing as I asked for changes and he's made them 😂

KingslandBarge

USArsenal true Partey was seriously ticking me off and if we had a better midfield he should have been dropped after West Ham. Just a statue-vibe with this midfield.

KingslandBarge

I see Auba is starting. Maybe that factors into the Kiwior selection too (both his attributes and unfamiliarity)

Big Willie

We're doin a Liverpool and resting our players against Chelsea to prep for Newcastle.

goon

Interesting changes. Personally would have liked to have seen Trossard for Xhaka but with Jorginho coming in I guess we need a more defensive minded partner.

I personally would have kept Martinelli in the side, but nothing wrong with freshening things up. Saka should really be rotated/rested soon though.

Clrnc

Should have freshened it up like these prior, always far too late but it's okay I like these changes! Basically dules dream team minus Nelson.

Surprised out of the 2 forwards he dropped the in form one though.
