Early yes, but it's Arsenal and I really wish it was Sunday already. Also trying to bring back some GPK magic.
I don't. I think it has trap game written all over it. Yes they've been us the last two so they should have our attention but they've been struggling hard and we're on a high. I trust Conte will have us ready but hoping we put them down quickly. Feel like the longer the game goes scoreless the more it will favor them for a moment of stupidity... Gary Cahill I'm looking at you.
Kinda weird seeing as Arsenal beat us in the FA Cup and Community Shield recently, but I am pretty confident as well. Only way we struggle is if it's totally self-induced imo
Conte said he's thinks we can beat them if we finish 11v11. Both matches saw us lose a player to red. Will contes comments aid or hurt us?
I don't think Conte's comments will make a difference. Of course we can beat them 11 vs 11 - we did it last year. It's not like it was a guarantee! Anyway, we should win this, but who knows? Arsenal have played us tough the last few times. Let's avoid any stupidities this time from the players. No diving or rash challenges. Have to think Cahill doesn't start due to his lunging habit of recent days. Would prefer to see Willian out wide instead of Pedro.
Think Hazard will be on the bench. Willian and the wing backs to run them ragged till the 60th then bring him on.
My cnbc channel is blacked out for the game using ps vue. This is horse shit. I'm using the nbc sports app but its not a very smooth stream.
We can't seem to string 2 passes together. Conte's gamble of Arsenal not pressing our mid hasn't worked. Surely Baka has to come on.
