accies1874 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I think Arsenal will win tonight. Kante and Loftus-Cheek will be big misses (especially given Barkley and Kovacic have been very meh) and Arsenal's front two + Ozil should be able to cause Chelsea's defence (Rudiger's missing too) more issues than Chelsea can cause Arsenal. Then again, Eden Hazard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Fans getting tops checked and asked to remove them if they have Mkhitaryan on the back of them. That’s completely ridiculous and borderline xenophobic, but hardly unique. Anyone who’s ever been to an Olympic event is given a list of appropriate clothing along with their ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also a yellow card offence to remove your shirt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, Eden Hazard. I actually think that chelsea will win, mainly because of the hazard factor. Kante being out stops the arguments about him and jorghino and leaves players playing in their best positions. Think players like hazard going up against an arsenal defence that has been their weakness this year might be the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Emery saying that the goal tonight is to win the Europa League trophy and champions league qualification is a secondary concern. Which seems like a completely reasonable thing to say, but immediately Jake Humphries dismisses it and says 'it isn't though.' The way the English football media treat the Europa league, even with two English teams in the final, is incredible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way they treat those non-British managers as joke figures is even worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
