Cahill is 6'4", Luiz is 6'2", Matic is 6'4" and Costa is 6'2". Also Batshuayi is 6'1"
All of these facts would lead a reasonable person of ordinary intelligence to infer that Chelsea are gonna be a serious threat in the air from set pieces.
So who would you select as your Goalkeeper to counter that physical threat?
- Petr Cech who's 6'5" and at 200 lbs (who has regularly played in recent times and has come up with decent performances), or
- David Ospina who's 6' and at 175 lbs (who last started for us more than 50 days ago)
I want you guys to look at this question from a rational and objective perspective without relying on any sentimental reasoning or conspiracy theorist logic. I know who I would play.
Let's just hope that Ospina has a blinder but I am already imagining him getting bullied in the box on set pieces by the physical Chelsea giants. Not playing Cech tomorrow goes against all prudence and can at best be termed as a gamble, especially when our back three is going to be seriously depleted.
Ospina is the bully. Masterstroke by Wenger.
Cech is out here literally gifting Chelsea players goals, yet Ospina is here laying Chelsea ladyboys out for the cannon, but everyone is up in arms because Cech isn't starting?
Plus all those stats of player heights just fuels his rage. We saw it a few summer ago on A-M. He'll be blessing them with the Colombian curse as he cleans out his box. :bounce:
