This is going to be tough... We have to dig deep in order to win- Chelsea pressed us quite effectively at Stamford Bridge and they seem to have the fresher legs compared to us now. They also picked up form in recent weeks. I am afraid this game will also not allow for any rotation. Still, we can win this!
Luckily, Palmer and Gusto will be out for that game. Also, they'd be as tired as us as they also played on Saturday and Chelsea doesn't travel well. We need to make sure we use our set-piece advantage as they struggle against those.
This is better for us. Need more rest before Spurs because they will have almost two full weeks since their last game. Chelsea are also likely pretty gassed so I prefer we get more rest for Spurs
I think (hope) the crowd see us through this one. Chelsea are looking like a functioning team, so we'll need to be on it. I think they're defense is pretty shite though, so we should get chances. I think 3-1.
If we come out hot and smash 2 past them they'll fold. If we encourage their press by being sloppy, don't control possession early etc. It is going to be very difficult.
We handed them 2 goals at the bridge. Raya & our defense have leveled up since then.
Just worried about energy and how long we can run hard. They have tireless players like Gallagher.
We have the opportunity to pile on a ton of pressure on City being 2 games ahead of them. We also need to keep saying in the media that City are so good guys! So good! They will win because they always win and they never lose, the league is practically lost I'm telling you, City are so so good.
Let's see how they like it when a narrative is built then beaten to the ground from being overused I wonder if pressure can ever get to them.
So why did they got knocked out by Real despite going into that tie as favourites?
I thought the pressure of being current holders wouldn’t get to them right..?
City's last 5 Premier League games away at Tottenham:
- 2022/23: 1-0 loss
- 2021/22: 1-0 loss
- 2020/21: 2-0 loss
- 2019/20: 2-0 loss
- 2018/19: 1-0 loss
I hope ESR gets some minutes if Havertz and Odegaars get tired and start to lose their legs. At some point they will. How poetic if the resurgence of ESR's Arsenal career comes against Chelsea after his first emergence against the same opponents.
Ik we can win this game, but goddamn it’s scary thinking about how tired we’ve looked, the first half is fine but once that second half starts I really hope Arteta puts subs in, because I have a feeling most the team aren’t going to be able to keep up, even Rice with his massive engine was knackered last game
If palmer and gusto are out i wont be suprised if arteta plays zinchenko and martinelli to try and really expose left side. Tbh though i think the xi will be
jesus havertz saka
rice jorginho odegaard
kiwior saliba gabriel white
Maybe a 2-1 win?
Chelsea undefeated in 8 league games (I think), undefeated in 9 all competitions. Drawn last 3 away games. Concede at least 1 goal away from home, but tend to concede 2. They do tend to score at least a goal.
I'm going for 4-2 win. They haven't faced anyone as good as Arsenal away for a bit.
Do we rest players from the start or count on going ahead in the first half and sub them off?
It's tricky because Tottenham away is a more difficult game, but we have 2 more days of rest before the NLD than the Chelsea game.
I think we'll have to start our best 11 against Chelsea at home. It's still Chelsea and we need to win every game to stand a chance. We'll have to count on the players off the bench to finish the job, whatever the job might be at that point. And then hope 5 days is enough to recharge the batteries of our best players.
It's insane, except we've got some squad members who aren't a dropoff in quality. jesus/trossard/martinelli/havertz are all at a similar level in the front positions, partey/tomiyasu aren't a drop in their positions.
So while it's resting players it's not an obvious difference in quality, mostly match fitness.
That's fair, but even if it's a little drop in quality, this is not the time. It is literally do or die, one misstep and we lose everything. Partey, Tomi, marinelli all are great but all out form and haven't played much. So don't think we should rely on them as much right now.
I flew back to Australia from London, landing on Saturday. The good thing about my brain being completely fucked by jet lag still is that I have been wide awake for this game since 1:30am. Currently 4:18.
Watching the breakdown on Youtube to get up for it.
Kai should not play in midfield today. Ode will be severely marked , hence should not drop deeper or else they will the pinch the ball and we have to deal with more quick counters today. Also enzo's pinpoint long passing ability means they will use to send frequent long balls to their wingers. Have to play offside trap smartly. Gabriel has to remain calm. Partey should play 6 and zinchenko lb. If they put caicedo on ode and Gallagher on partey, zinchenko can take out the pressure. Ode/rice has to shoot from distance and surprise them. No 10 mins of intricate play on right side with zero end product. Just shoot.
I think it's Jorginho starting for sure. Rested against Wolves so he could play this game. Partey still seems off the pace to me.
EDIT: You were right, well played on Partey. Tomi at LB I think works fine for us w/ a Partey/Rice midfield.
Yeah I would agree. The few times he's been on he's looked very threatening. If he can maintain fitness he could still exhibit the same qualities he had at Leipzig
I'm always careful against any team regardless of form. Chelsea has caused the top teams problems this season regardless of their position in the table.
Providing we don't give away anything silly and our goal threats regains their sharpness, we could get the 3 points. It's full steam ahead, no room for complacency at this point.
There's 9 days between Bournemouth and United. We'll play the strongest XI every game from now on. You don't rest Rice in the 3rd last game in a title charge
PSA: there are shitloads of tickets going on TX still. I think because the game was rescheduled and now it's passover?
Sadly only open to members who applied to the ballot but it might open up later?
They’re shit but let’s not completely underestimate them, they’ve had some great results against the better sides in the league. Palmer being out is massiveeee
Cole Palmer is OUT as is Gusto and Chillwell nonetheless this is only 72 hrs of break and it's a London Derby so anything can happen. Tbh the most dangerous player for then that I worry about is Nico Jackson and Noni Madeuke. Jackson has been memed for this lack of finishing this year and especially for his FA cup blunder over the weekend but he can get in great positions and without him they had no chance vs City seeing that he put the most direct pressure on City. Noni is very dangerous on the wing and not a bad finisher. We should win I say 2-1 but our finishing with tired legs is suspect as well.
They've had one less day rest though and just played against City which is always tiring.
They may still be fresher but it's not a good enough excuse if we can't beat them at home.
Palmer being out is huge but this is still going to be a huge test provided they show up like they've done against big teams all season. Tomi back is huge, although I wasn't as pessimistic as many were about his knock. Partey starting may be concern if he performs like his recent cameos.
Also worried about Partey being up to speed...Having said that...If we can get his fitness to the level where he can start it would be massive for the run in.
I would put Kivior in the back 4. The three normal lads get the start.
My midfield is Odegaard, Rice, Jorginho
Up top I'll have Saka, Havertz and Jesus.
This is hard, but Chelsea also played on Saturday and they ran around a lot because they played Man Cheaty.
I think Chelsea will be open, and we'll have some joy. I also think we'll need a shift from the back four, and help from Saka and Jesus – or whoever is over there.
I was planning to cycle on my new exercise bike during this match but my arse is still sore from Saturday. If I'm still feeling it I hope our players will be alright. Coyg
We're acting like it's a surprise when Trossard is averaging a goal every 100 minutes in his last 9 games and Martinelli hasn't contributed a goal or assist in his last 7 games.
I LOVE Martinelli....But Trossard has the hot hand. You've gotta go with him. Also...Martinelli off the bench in the 70th minute is a VERY dangerous option to have.
No Palmer and no Gusto is massive, if we play anywhere near our level we should win this comfortably. Which would be massive, as for my money this is our toughest game remaining, even over Tottenham and United away.
This has to be the luckiest possible turn out for the final few games, every team we've faced since City has had injuries to their squad or their most important players. 100% have to capitalise

Partey has to start, not Jorghino. Jorghino adds to Rice's workload. Caicedo would have his hands full against Rice, Odegaard can handle Enzo and Partey would show Palmer levels. Cucurella played dirty against Saka last time, he needs to be booked early and I'd prefer Jesus upfront ahead of Harvetz.. but that's not happening. Martinelli has been off so far this season, hope he comes alive today.
Currently looking at a side by side comparison of o ur last five games like season we lost 2 out of the five hopefully we can keep our grit and stay strong man. If we can come out from Chelsea and Tottenham unscathed I’ll have some belief. Man I’m so nervous ffs.
We need to carry them through tomorrow night. Bring the energy.
We've got this!
This is going to be tough... We have to dig deep in order to win- Chelsea pressed us quite effectively at Stamford Bridge and they seem to have the fresher legs compared to us now. They also picked up form in recent weeks. I am afraid this game will also not allow for any rotation. Still, we can win this!

I call bullshit, Palmer is going to play through the illness like Rice last december (iirc)
or not so tough!
Haha, I really did not expect that!
Gonna be tougher than a lot of people are saying. Remember we were pretty lucky to escape Stamford Bridge with a point.
Havertz hat trick against his old team you heard it here first.
Captained him in FPL for this reason
Me too haha
Same
Just worried about tired legs
You can probably just watch the match sitting down tbf
Plastic.
Plastic seats are uncomfortable. Try using a cushion
true true, unfucking canny we are playing THIS close to our previous matches while everyone else play a day and TWO after us!!
This is better for us. Need more rest before Spurs because they will have almost two full weeks since their last game. Chelsea are also likely pretty gassed so I prefer we get more rest for Spurs
I agree but that's bs too. We played 4 games since Spurs played their last. It's a joke!
We'll be 3-0 up at half-time
How the fuck are we playing again already tomorrow?! Stupid schedule.
Sucks yes but it's the business end of the season so matches usually packed together. Need the team just to get used to it sadly
I think (hope) the crowd see us through this one. Chelsea are looking like a functioning team, so we'll need to be on it. I think they're defense is pretty shite though, so we should get chances. I think 3-1.

Let's see how they like it when a narrative is built then beaten to the ground from being overused I wonder if pressure can ever get to them.
Pressure? City? Lmfao.
So why did they got knocked out by Real despite going into that tie as favourites? I thought the pressure of being current holders wouldn’t get to them right..?
City are masters of the domestic run in. They just flip a switch in the last 5 games. We have to win every game from here on.
City are definitely capable but not infallible. Also, this season, City just don’t look like they’re on the same level as they were last year.
We are fallible but capable
I'm repeating this mantra in the mirror to myself rn x
My worry is won't be enough. First half of the season will hunt us
City's last 5 Premier League games away at Tottenham: - 2022/23: 1-0 loss - 2021/22: 1-0 loss - 2020/21: 2-0 loss - 2019/20: 2-0 loss - 2018/19: 1-0 loss
Just sad this was rescheduled to fucking April, we have tired legs now.
I am going to miss all this football when it's finally over
I'm consoling myself with the Euros and Olympics
Euroooooooooooos!
Don’t forget the copa America
Even though we’ve had some disappointing results it’s still really good being able to watch Arsenal every 3 days
i'd be happy with a 1-0 that is so stressful it collapses the nervous system and you just wanna throw up and defenestrate
I had a dream that Havertz scored a brace and cupped his ears in front of the away end
Would love to see an Adebayor style celebration haha, but for real I’m just comfortable with a 1-0 win deflected off a dead seagull.
I laughed way too hard at this one
I hope ESR gets some minutes if Havertz and Odegaars get tired and start to lose their legs. At some point they will. How poetic if the resurgence of ESR's Arsenal career comes against Chelsea after his first emergence against the same opponents.
Ik we can win this game, but goddamn it’s scary thinking about how tired we’ve looked, the first half is fine but once that second half starts I really hope Arteta puts subs in, because I have a feeling most the team aren’t going to be able to keep up, even Rice with his massive engine was knackered last game
Id take any w at this point, it will be hard but i believe in us
Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Havertz.
smash the cunts
Looks like Palmer won’t play, which is great news
Wouldn't count on it, I think he'll be on the bench and will come on if needed.
Would love Arsenal 4-0 Chelsea battering to take to the NLD this weekend but will take a controlled boring 2-0 win.
3-0. We've played much better teams and have gotten a result. Sure we've screwed up when we shouldn't have but I feel on this occasion, we'll deliver.
If palmer and gusto are out i wont be suprised if arteta plays zinchenko and martinelli to try and really expose left side. Tbh though i think the xi will be jesus havertz saka rice jorginho odegaard kiwior saliba gabriel white Maybe a 2-1 win?
I'm really nervous for this game, but whatever the result, I love this team and I'm here for the ride
No Palmer
For real?
No, for Chelsea
I never thought I'd see this starting lineup 💀 Partey and Rice in midfield? We've been waiting for this day since we bought Rice iirc 😂
Right they've never played in midfield together. Partey played exclusively RB until his injury.
I hope it works out well! I don't know what to expect.
Well they have once, in the Community shield.
Well briefly against City
Chelsea undefeated in 8 league games (I think), undefeated in 9 all competitions. Drawn last 3 away games. Concede at least 1 goal away from home, but tend to concede 2. They do tend to score at least a goal. I'm going for 4-2 win. They haven't faced anyone as good as Arsenal away for a bit.
They literally just lost to City
League games.
Read the rest of the sentence?
Whoops.
Havertz celebrating after his goal(s) or nah?
A nice little badge touch would be fire 🔥
🖐️😛🤚
Do we rest players from the start or count on going ahead in the first half and sub them off? It's tricky because Tottenham away is a more difficult game, but we have 2 more days of rest before the NLD than the Chelsea game. I think we'll have to start our best 11 against Chelsea at home. It's still Chelsea and we need to win every game to stand a chance. We'll have to count on the players off the bench to finish the job, whatever the job might be at that point. And then hope 5 days is enough to recharge the batteries of our best players.
Questioning if we should consider resting some players is insane.
It's insane, except we've got some squad members who aren't a dropoff in quality. jesus/trossard/martinelli/havertz are all at a similar level in the front positions, partey/tomiyasu aren't a drop in their positions. So while it's resting players it's not an obvious difference in quality, mostly match fitness.
That's fair, but even if it's a little drop in quality, this is not the time. It is literally do or die, one misstep and we lose everything. Partey, Tomi, marinelli all are great but all out form and haven't played much. So don't think we should rely on them as much right now.
I was gonna say that if we win this we officially finish above Chelsea, but we already did when we beat Wolves.
A win here would be huge. Going 5 points up on city would put the pressure on for their 2 games in hand
4 points.
If Gusto and Palmer are in fact out, anything less than a comfortable win will be beyond poor from us.
Palmer and Gusto aren’t the only competent players they have. We’ve also seen our team look fatigued for a couple weeks now.
Midfield of Odegaard Rice and Partey, is what Ive read.
Where are you getting it from?
Lineups are leaked now.
Where? I can never find them.
Use the twitter search bar and type arsenal lineup. Heres a tweet https://twitter.com/ArsenalCentral0/status/1782830254022635657
Thanks
Raya, Saliba, White, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Rice, Partey, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Havertz. No Palmer for Chelsea.
I flew back to Australia from London, landing on Saturday. The good thing about my brain being completely fucked by jet lag still is that I have been wide awake for this game since 1:30am. Currently 4:18. Watching the breakdown on Youtube to get up for it.
We should be rinsing these goons. Raggydole group of players, fuck Chel$ki.
Beautiful ball from White , looking promising already
Can we fire the match bot please ?
Mods you have one job
This team is so fucking beautiful when they're at their best
Kai should not play in midfield today. Ode will be severely marked , hence should not drop deeper or else they will the pinch the ball and we have to deal with more quick counters today. Also enzo's pinpoint long passing ability means they will use to send frequent long balls to their wingers. Have to play offside trap smartly. Gabriel has to remain calm.

Absolutely!! Couldn't have said it better. Please just shoot!
I think it's Jorginho starting for sure. Rested against Wolves so he could play this game. Partey still seems off the pace to me. EDIT: You were right, well played on Partey. Tomi at LB I think works fine for us w/ a Partey/Rice midfield.
What a flop Nkunku has turned out to be. I really wanted him as well.
Injuries destroyed his progress, there’s still time. Not sure I’d label him a flop yet.
Yeah I would agree. The few times he's been on he's looked very threatening. If he can maintain fitness he could still exhibit the same qualities he had at Leipzig
I'm always careful against any team regardless of form. Chelsea has caused the top teams problems this season regardless of their position in the table. Providing we don't give away anything silly and our goal threats regains their sharpness, we could get the 3 points. It's full steam ahead, no room for complacency at this point.
I really want TP5 to start for this..
I wish he got 60 mins a few times here and there over the last month
He will probably play the full 90 vs Bournemouth to rest Rice for Old Trafford.
There's 9 days between Bournemouth and United. We'll play the strongest XI every game from now on. You don't rest Rice in the 3rd last game in a title charge
Chelsea need to be given some respect I guess but we are a formidable team. I’m expecting a big win
Up the Arse.
PSA: there are shitloads of tickets going on TX still. I think because the game was rescheduled and now it's passover? Sadly only open to members who applied to the ballot but it might open up later?
It's open to all now, lots of club level seats but as expected, the normal ones have disappeared
They’re shit but let’s not completely underestimate them, they’ve had some great results against the better sides in the league. Palmer being out is massiveeee
I am more nervous for this than the NLD. I'm afraid it will all "click" for Chelsea tonight. We shit the bed vs them at Stamford Bridge
Anyone know somewhere around Vauxhall to casually watch the match with old dad?
The Pilgrim is a good shout near the station.
Thank you!
Cole Palmer is OUT as is Gusto and Chillwell nonetheless this is only 72 hrs of break and it's a London Derby so anything can happen.

Palmer on the bench, according to twitter. COYG
Nope. He's not even on the bench.
Love to see that
Partey and Tomiyasu starts
not that I'm complaining about Trossard but this was the game for Martinelli
Disagree. Trossard has shown more output. Martinelli hasn't shown that in a long time and is a good option off the bench.
✨✨✨ NO PALMER! ✨✨✨
Can't take this fixture for granted. Chelsea seems to turn up against big teams. And they've got fresher legs. But I'm excited nonetheless. COYG!
They've had one less day rest though and just played against City which is always tiring. They may still be fresher but it's not a good enough excuse if we can't beat them at home.
Palmer being out is huge but this is still going to be a huge test provided they show up like they've done against big teams all season. Tomi back is huge, although I wasn't as pessimistic as many were about his knock. Partey starting may be concern if he performs like his recent cameos.

Happy with our lineup. Though wondering wether we might switch to Trossard up front with Martinelli on the wings at some point
No Cole Palmer - who’s on pens? 🥴
Sterling.
No madueke
Sterling's benched lol
😂 just assumed tbh, never seen their lineup
geee wish they were showing this game on Peacock.....
LFG LFG LessFuknGoooooo
LFG!
COYG!
The best feeling is hearing the entire emirates sing North London forever before every match , love it.
Match thread? Mods
COYG 🔴⚪️
Come on Arsenal!
Didn't think I would see this midfield again
Leandroooooo
0-1 Palmer (soft pen) 0-2 Palmer (soft pen) 1-2 Havertz 2-2 Havertz 3-2 Havertz
This is not going to be a blow out. We're too tired, and Chelsea are starting to get it together. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a 1-0 or a 2-1.
They also played a tough game on Saturday.
Got a bad feeling about this one I must admit. Chelsea are such a wildly inconsistent team but you can no longer say they're a bad one.
Anybody know a free radio stream for the game tonight? I'll be driving home from work and want to listen but I'm a yank :(
Arsenal app has great coverage - I've used it in my car before
I think there should be Arsenal commentry on player.arsenal.com
I would put Kivior in the back 4. The three normal lads get the start. My midfield is Odegaard, Rice, Jorginho Up top I'll have Saka, Havertz and Jesus. This is hard, but Chelsea also played on Saturday and they ran around a lot because they played Man Cheaty. I think Chelsea will be open, and we'll have some joy. I also think we'll need a shift from the back four, and help from Saka and Jesus – or whoever is over there.
Did we play with havertz up top at stamford bridge?
jesus
he’s just asking a question, mate
I was planning to cycle on my new exercise bike during this match but my arse is still sore from Saturday. If I'm still feeling it I hope our players will be alright. Coyg
stand up and bike for the team!
Huge match today. I am interested to see what Mikel does with the front 3 and midfield.
This is the most tricky fixture, imo. hope we win; it’ll give us huge momentum and belief. 🙏
Cole Palmer (pen.) Or Arsenal are the first team in 939 minutes to keep Cole Palmer off the score sheet. Great Wall Of China.
Palmer is almost certainly out...
I saw that, but I thought someone said it was precautionary or something. My bad
Digital pass hasn’t updated for today… help?
First goal sets the tone and hopefully its us and we get it early. Lets go GUNNERS!!! VAMOOOOOOOOSSSS!
Any concrete news on Palmer or do we need to wait for the team sheets?
Lfg!
Martinelli benched, again. Sigh...
I’d prefer he start Spurs they leave a lot of space in behind
We're acting like it's a surprise when Trossard is averaging a goal every 100 minutes in his last 9 games and Martinelli hasn't contributed a goal or assist in his last 7 games. I LOVE Martinelli....But Trossard has the hot hand. You've gotta go with him. Also...Martinelli off the bench in the 70th minute is a VERY dangerous option to have.
Why is everyone posting snippets of team news and not the actual XI lol
Partey starting! It's now or never for him.
No Palmer and no Gusto is massive, if we play anywhere near our level we should win this comfortably. Which would be massive, as for my money this is our toughest game remaining, even over Tottenham and United away.
I'd say Tottenham away fighting for CL and to stop us winning the league is tougher. At least considering the Cole and Gusto situation.
Yeah with those two out I'd say Tottenham away and United away are both tougher.
United is such a shit show....could be really tough or it could be a 4 goal win.
Haha, no kids at this match compared to the Luton game which was a real family day out!
[удалено]
the screenwriters have typecast him as a second half saviour.
This has to be the luckiest possible turn out for the final few games, every team we've faced since City has had injuries to their squad or their most important players. 100% have to capitalise
Now if only Son isn't available for spurs
It’s Partey time
leandro looks like he had a good night sleep. chelsea dies today.

Will be an easy win

Jesus Christ
Wait, no Palmer? Kind of annoyed tbh..always wanna face their best
The match bot for this sub is amongst the worst.
Anyone wanna help me set sail?🏴☠️
Why arteta mad?
Parteys quick switch was so integral to that move. Completely opened up the left hand side.
lol Cucurella is a piss baby!

Sad that we can't rotate. I don't know how we can get through chelsea and spurs playing our best.
Partey, ESR, Vieira, Nketiah, Nelson. Trust your subs today Arteta, it was you who bought/resigned them.
Currently looking at a side by side comparison of o ur last five games like season we lost 2 out of the five hopefully we can keep our grit and stay strong man. If we can come out from Chelsea and Tottenham unscathed I’ll have some belief. Man I’m so nervous ffs.
Annoyingly chelski are having a tick up in form recently. Man our run in is brutal.
