I'm chill at the moment, but will probs get nervous closer to kick off.

The implications of not winning, therefore not getting CL, therefore destroying our budget for this summer alone is stress in itself.

We lose, the rebuild takes a season longer to complete. We win and we could really make signings that make us a completely different proposition next season.

We have to win this.

Its all about the pressing game. If they whole team runs like Ramsey, its as simple as that we will win.

i just hope the players added motivation of this being the only way into the champions league inspires them because chelsea might be more relaxed as they already secured top 4 . its probably hazards last game so he might wanna go out with a bang its going to be a tight game i just hope our attackers can show up and give chelsea a hard time

Leno
Sokratis-Koscielny-Monreal
MNiles-Torreira-Xhaka-Kolasinac
Ozil
Lacazette-Aubameyang

Best lineup available. I think they will start bar Cech for Leno

The presence of VAR has also been confirmed by UEFA (see refereeing team).

Referee team appointed for UEFA Europa League final in Baku

Italian referee Gianluca Rocchi to take charge of the match between Chelsea and Arsenal.

The UEFA Referees Committee has announced today that Gianluca Rocchi will referee the 2019 UEFA Europa League final between Chelsea and Arsenal at the Baku Olympic Stadium on Wednesday 29 May (kick-off at 23.00 local time/21.00CET).

Rocchi has been an international referee since 2008. This season, the 45-year-old Italian has officiated at six UEFA Champions League matches. This will be the first UEFA Europa League final that Rocchi has overseen, after handling the fourth referee duties in the 2010 encounter between Atlético Madrid and Fulham, as well as the 2017 UEFA Europa League final between Ajax and Manchester United. The same year, he was in charge of the UEFA Super Cup match between Manchester United and Real Madrid.

He will be assisted by compatriots Filippo Meli and Lorenzo Manganelli at the final in Baku, with Daniele Orsato taking the role of fourth official. The video assistant referee team will be led by Massimiliano Irrati, supported by Marco Guida, Szymon Marciniak, and Pawel Sokolnicki.

Apparently if City get the one year champions league ban we will automatically get a CL place. I hope the decision is made before the final so we know the situation for sure, it shouldn't make a difference but you never know with us.

City could appeal the decision and still play CL next year.
The 5th place team next season would then get City's CL place.

That can't be right as there is a chance (though not realistic) that City won't qualify. Surely the decision will have to be unappealable due to time and administration constraints.

I'm just grateful that we've not had any injuries in the run-up to this. We should play the exact same squad that's played the QFs and SFs.

Emery is a better manager than Sarri

I think this will be the deciding factor.

Sarri has never won a trophy, never ever and has a team of mercenaries who don't care much for him. Apparently he's facing the sack even if he wins.

We could just bottle it aswell, its a final, a one off game,
