Matchday thread for Premier league match at Stamford Bridge against Arsenal.

Last five games 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses.

Like a visit to St James Park time for our annual dose of disappointment against our bogey side.

As when we we play them normally:

I am so sure we will not win this match that, if I am wrong, I will give the forum the gift of me shutting up for the rest of the year and only posting the match day threads, and one Christmas message, and not one drop of negativity.

Roll 2026 into the equation as well and we're on !

 
Can't wait to give them their 3 points we always love to give them.

A minimum of one point gifted to them. Even when we are playing well, being the better side and going 2 goals up we then fumble it to bless them a point.

It's just who we are, mate.

 
I wonder if there is ANY chance that Palmer plays in this.

Honestly think that if we put our best 11 out (which obviously includes Palmer) and we were up for it, we could beat the Gooners, but I won't build those hopes up too much.

 
This is the type of game where the manager can get you the win.

Time to step up Maresca

Presumably it'll just be the standard setup for when we play teams with better players than ours - Reece in midfield, defensive line ten yards back - 2-0 defeat - job done.

 
Arsenal play one of the highest lines in he league, we all saw what we can do against that in the CWC final.

Play to our strengths and hit them quickly in transition.

James Chalobah Tosin Cucurella​
Caicedo Santos Enzo​
Estevao J>Pedro Garnacho​

After a MOTM performance in our last game, it must be a near certainty that Santos will get dropped and we'll play Gusto in midfield instead ... (or James with Gusto at right back)

Seeing as he broke his toe a few days ago, I doubt it. Colwill had a toe injury two seasons ago and disappeared for months.

I guess I'm hoping that they have exaggerated the injury to the press to lull the Gooners into a false sense of security, but probably just wishful thinking.

It would give everyone such a boost to line up against them with a fit and raring to go Palmer. If he's still missing, I will bite your hand off now for a draw.

Not enough! You’d have to pay me at least a tenner to read that!

That being the case would be better to start with Guiu than J Pedro?

I'd be happy with Guiu, however think he's better as an impact sub currently. J.Pedro can drop deep to get the ball in behind to the wingers.
