Looking forward to this one and it's vitally important we get something out of this game. Playing at the Bridge is no easy task especially when Chelsea are in this form. In all honesty I think we can hope for a win but a drw is most realistic

What form? they just drew with Hull and have been pretty inconsistent over the last 2 months, depends which chelsea turn up to play

At Philly, great idea haha I think 15 of the 20 goals Chelsea have conceded have been from set pieces, so we should try to capitalize if we can.

we really should win.

just keep getting corners and Cech is sure to run out and grab air allowing Gallas a free header into the goal

I love it

I'll be up for this one tonight, can't wait, should be a cracker. Sticking by my original prediction of Chelsea to win 2-1.

just played this game on FIFA as a warm-up match.

Arsenal 4 (RVP '3 '11, Arshavin '56, Walcott '88)
Chelsea 1 (Anelka '85)

would love it if thats how the game went.
with Fabby getting RVP's goals.

but confident we can score as many or more than them.

comfortable win by chelsea... 1 point out of a possible 9 for arsenal, seems they've found quality opposition too difficult.

I'm just a little bit annoyed right now...not allowed to get up on Sunday nights/Monday mornings coz of school, I've done it plenty of times but decided to just tape it and wake up at 5:30am and watch the tape for this one...I woke up at 5:30am and dad had changed the channel on Foxtel last night so it hadn't taped the game on Fox Sports. Mad

Great result though, Drogba's second was brilliant and damn his free kick was close to getting his hatty.

Drogba strikes again, he's our bogey man. The title is slowly fading we have had a horror run in feb

yes but Man U didn't to very well V fellow Top 4 clubs last year but they won the title.
it's about taking the 3 points from bottom teams that make-or-break your season.

only a fool would count us out of the race.
remember after Chelsea beat us 3-0. we were 11 behind and some said we were out of it.
we now only have 3 games i think V teams in the top 8 while Man U and Chelsea still have 5 or 6. so we should not (hopefully) drop many more points while United and Chelsea still have many games left to drop points.

losing games against your fellow title challenges doesnt help either. arsenal arent out of the race but their chances are very unlikely. definitely a two horse race bar a miracle.

Its another case of if only. Cech had a ripper game, he hasnt played that well in a long long time. F*** you Drogba! Although I almost admire him when he plays like that, unfortunately it only seems to happen against us Rolling Eyes

.

We absolutely 100% have to get 3 points on Wednesday against Pool.

shut up Sibs Razz

we lost because we didn't get enough corners...
and AGAIN we didn't put our chances away.
