Lol Bruno ?

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Will Caicedo play?

unsure he'll be fit they'll likely go with Lavia and Gusto again.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Lol Bruno ?

good to see Timber at least training even if he on his own mean he heading into right direction and no set backs. i think Bruno we just managing his physical condition he had little to no pre season so likely we limiting his training involvement.

 

[Grandolph]

We have actually been quite lucky to stay unbeaten against them past two seasons.
Will be a tactical match between Arteta and Alonso, and I can see our defence (white/Konsa/Mosq) struggle with their fluid attack. Getting the 1st goal will be very important.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

i don't know what to expect from this game because Chelsea are new team with new manager their front 3 are very good starting the season but we should dominate the midfield that lost their two main players Caicedo (injured) Enzo who is sold and their defense is weak no Cucu anymore so Saka Achilles should be fine.

to win this game we have to be clinical and try to limit their front 3 danger because honestly apart from that they don't have much else.

Likely Rice will be tasked to either man mark Palmer or Rogers that will help us limit their danger. they'll likely counter attack us because they don't have players to dominate they had 25% possesion against Brighton at home.

we need to take lessons from Manutd game at emirates last season it'll be same with them having better attack than utd on paper

 

[Sanchez11]

Bruno, Mls, Rice trio plz.

 

[The Ducking Duck]

Bruno, Mls, Rice trio plz.

So no Ødegaard?

 

[bastun]

We need to spank these lot. They need to know their place. Their players are starting to talk some **** like they are the big deal. Their fans act like it as well. 3:0 with Palmer non-existent as per usual against big teams.

 

[Sanchez11]

So no Ødegaard?

Yeah, whats he going todo if he plays? I want him up the field not in defence!

Which game in the past two seasons should they have beaten us in?

 

[Red London]

Why are people asking for no Ødegaard? Hes been good this season, same people would complain about us being stodgy if we played 3 CMs.

Rice x MLS/Bruno
Ødegaard

Has to be the midfield for this, we are home and can punish their lack of a midfield. Not sure why you would make such galaxy brain changes anyway.

 

[grange]

Lol Bruno ?

He was limping very noticeably last game and he's had a knock.

 

[andeoch1]

I want Tzolis again Chelsea... because Cala is poor at defense

He is NOT poor at defense , not his strongest attribute, but certainly not poor . What he lacks a little defensively he more than makes up for it with the chaos he causes up front .

 

[Gooner Zig]

If Bruno still isn't quite fit enough to start then MLS keeps his spot.

Apparently we have a terrible GW3 record, like one win in the last 7 seasons...hopefully we can reverse that on Sunday.

Weird stat. That must have come in 22/23.

 

[Jason Jace]

By definition, are we really a defensive side?

Just because we don’t needlessly give the ball away and turn games into an end to end ***********, people seem to have the idea that we are a defensive side.

Risk averse, I agree, boring I agree but defensive ?


It seems like people don’t even know what they are watching these days

 

[Sanchez11]

We dont need to be as defensive when you have 2 quality cms. He needs to be braver ffs.

 

[Diesel]

They dont have any midfielders. We should be battering them.

What was villas midfield?

 

[Diesel]

Man is Bruno actually injured or just being told to sit until game day
