Arsenal vs. Chelsea on Tue @ 8PM

Pepe LeFrits

Chelsea's only threat has been from their press. They press whenever we give the ball to Hincapie, Gabriel, Noni (which gave them their one shot on goal) and they'd be all over Gyokeres if we tried to play it in to him which is probably why we haven't tried to pass to him.

Pepe LeFrits

Pepe LeFrits which is to say it's hard to build when your 9 isn't involved in build up. Not really seeing Eze enjoying the space Gyokeres is supposedly creating for his teammates

est

banduan Yep, we're making so many poor decisions and misplacing so many easy passes. We'd be dominating this match if we just did the basics right on the ball.

Qwiss

Think Arteta made a mistake starting Gyok as he'll finish with Jesus when it's more open. Should've done the opposite and Jesus float around this back 5. No service to Gyok with so many defenders in the way.

MistaT

Qwiss -- imagine how slow Jesus is going to look in this soaked pitch

est

Pepe LeFrits they're losing and playing a 5 4 1 with a CM and centerforward as their wingers

Tbh, it's not a bad strategy. They can't afford to concede. It's more important for them to keep us out and hope we somehow fuck it up passing it around our back.

We almost had them with that Martinelli chance when they tried to press us high up the pitch.

Mirth

est it’s not really a great strategy against a team that enjoys being defensive though.

est

Mirth we'll see. It doesn't take much to score one goal. A bit of luck is all it takes. It takes a lot to score two against our defence though.

HomeSteak

If we get to the final Kepa cannot play

lorddulaarsenal

Martinelli and Gyokeres basically shouldn’t be on the field at the same time

Qwiss

lorddulaarsenal both been decent. Only ball that's on is over the top and they've made good runs. Noni on the other hand is ineffective because there's no room for his usual dribbling.

Tactics

Estavao coming on soon by the looks of things

He’s trouble

IBL

Twice Hincapie has been fowled and the ref ignores it

Qwiss

Arteta is right. Officials are shit.

Mirth

We better fucking win this trophy for all the effort we’ve put into this pointless tournament

banduan

Yellow on Hinchcapie for being persistently fouled.

Mirth

est fair - Chelsea bringing on the big guns now.

IBL

Noni being frustrating with his crosses today.

Gunner89

madueke final end product mostly always lacking

HomeSteak

We should never ever play that front 3. The tehnical lvl is that of a championship team

Gunner89

HomeSteak

open goals outside europe for this three must be 1-2 goals in the last 3 months

edit: that martinelli hatrick aside against that league 2 side
