[north bank gooner]

For any Gooners going to Baku, the local supporters club have invited us for an afternoon in a German Boozer. Here are the details, and more about getting to the stadium and pre match drinks. It will feel more like Munich!

I will probably be taking a look, and also try and find the fanzone if it's any decent.

[whee]

Buzzing, it's going to be a belting away day.

[Emerysta]

My lineup

---------------------------Cech (He´s going to play so...)
--------Sokratis---------Kos-------------Monreal
AMN----------Torreira--------Xhaka----------------Kolasinac
-----------------------------Ozil
-------------------Laca------------Auba

How will Chelsea line up for this?

Kepa
Azpi - Luiz - Christensen - Alonso
Kante* - Jorginho - Kovacic
Pedro - Giroud/Higuain - Hazard

Ruben Loftus Cheek being injured is huge considering how instrumental he's been for them lately. Also Kante is a doubt and they don't know whether he's going to be fit on time.

If kante isn't fit they're going to have to play:
Barkley - Jorginho - Kovacic


I don't understand why the bookies have them as favorites, i really feel like we're massive favorites for this on paper and most people (even Chelsea fans) see us as favorites.

any official word on why there is no emirates screening?

Chill man, Bookies had silly odds on us beating Valencia away also.

Cech f***ing shouldn't play. That would be a massive mistake if Emery picks him, and cause a lot of fans to turn against him.

[LMAO]

Isn't there construction going on to increase the capacity past that of Spurs' new stadium?

This, they are working on putting extra seats into club level.

If I wasn't going to Baku I would probably choose the 12 pins over going to the ground to watch a screening. There will be a much better atmosphere.

the biggest game of the year our whole year comes down to one game looool

Hazard plus our defence makes Chelsea favourites.
They did also finish above us in the league.

Not sure why you think we are "massive favourites".

We dealt with Hazard and Costa in a one-off game a few years back. I think the prices should be about the same, our attack has more options than theirs. If Hazard is snuffed out, then we have a great chance.

Because Sarri sets up his team the same in every game and plays only one system. No plan B and if it's not going their way it's over. Emery is the perfect coach to counter him and he's won finals before.

Europa League concern for Chelsea as Kante suffers injury set-back.

The France international had been on the road to recovery, but the latest knock means he remains a doubt for the final against the Gunners

Chelsea are sweating over the fitness of N'Golo Kante ahead of the Europa League final after the midfielder suffered a knock in training on Saturday.

The Blues star had almost completely recovered from the calf strain he sustained against Watford in the Premier League at the beginning of May, but he has now encountered another set-back in his road to recovery.

He had been taking part in preparations ahead of the Europa League decider against Arsenal when he suffered a knock to his knee and his involvement in the game remains doubtful as a result.
