2 banks of four and play hector at rw so you can basically choke off hazard by sandwiching him with two fullbacks.


Not a bad idea tbf. If he switches flanks,

sanchez>hazard tracking back

Heard all their STs are injured atm now anyway, they could really struggle going fwd so will concentrate on staying back.

Hazard as ever is the danger though.

I'd rather Costa not play but feel it won't affect the result this time.
dogba is pushing 50 & if Gabriel starts which is looking likely I feel he is quick & aggressive enough to keep the old yard dog quiet.
Time to lay this ghost to rest & desperate as I am for us to retain the FA Cup, THIS game carries far more significance.
Our current squad realising its potential & delivering MAJOR honours depends on sundays result, next season onwards obviously.

So Wenger has built a squad that is toe to toe slight favorites against a Chelsea side missing Costa - Not bad is it WOB :hiding:

Chelsea are back to their 1-0 roots. They roll, they dive, they somehow score a goal and defend in two banks of five. Mourinho is parking the bus from the outset. He may have had Wenger's number in the past but he would bite your hands off if you offered him a point now. There ain't a time better than this for Wenger to score a win over Mourinho.

no, it's not bad at all.

there is that minor matter of being 10 points behind them and having lost earlier this season, without having a shot at their goal until the 92nd minute.

However, Wenger's done wonders in the last 10 seasons.......sigh......

I think Bellerin on the RW could be a good option. Would help us stay nice and defensively solid, as well as having a pacey outlet on the wing. I would also like Debuchy to start because we need his experience against Hazard. Hopefully the two of them together can shut him down.

We don't need Debuchy at all, the game against Reading showed he wasn't ready. Bellerin at rb, don't get some weird ideas in your head. Ramsey in midfield please.

Mourinho is a defensive t**t. Most probably he is going to set Matic to foul Ozil in order to disrupt our rhythm. But the fact that we are at home and our awesome form pushes me to believe we'll nick a win this time out. Same team as the last league game please!
