FA Cup Final I Arsenal v Chelsea I 5.30pm, Saturday May 27th

[Axel9090]

is it too much to ask that we all put aside our disagreements for 24 f***ing hours and just enjoy the fact we are in yet another FA Cup final.

An FA Cup that Spuds fans were desperate to get into. In our worst season in over 20 years we still have a chance at a trophy while the Spuds are left sounding like us in the banter years moaning about "new stadium, net spend, etc"

Lets forget dissing Wenger and each other for 24 hours ffs and get behind our team!

Ill gladly forget it all for the rest of tomorrow if we win it, but until then, its business as usual.

Composed of various elements, ethical and efficient.

Well played.

Also if Wenger knew all along Ospina was starting all along then he is in the exact same position both Mourinho and Romero where at several weeks ago. Mourinho dropped De Gea to get Romero match sharp Wenger could and should have done the same.

Just seems to me like Wenger is setting himself up with another excuse if things go wrong.

You ought to know by now that Wenger doesn't blame individual players for a loss

Physioroom showing:

Arsenal . . .
Mustafi as a major doubt.
Gibbs and Ox only just back in training
Sanchez tight hamstring, still a worry
Gabriel and Cazorla out
Kos suspended of course.

Chelsea . . .
Of no, Loftus Cheek has a back strain.

 

[grange]

Holding, Mertesacker, and Monreal back 3? Oh boy...

 

[Brown Gooner]

Let's put out a worst of the worst case scenario lineup.

Ospina
Holding Per Nacho
Hector Ramsey Xhaka Iwobi
Özil Giroud Welbeck

^ if that's gonna be our team then I'll gladly take a 0-1 defeat Or we play for penalties and get a lucky goal in ET.

Let's not forget the semi-finals were Chelsea vs Sp**s, City vs Arsenal. 4 out of the top 5 sides in the division all playing their best teams trying to get into the final, but loads of pricks will tell you this tournament is worthless. **** off, both sets of players will do absolutely everything in their power to win this tomorrow. It's still a massive trophy, one that i'm praying we win yet again tomorrow.

 

[Makingtrax]

This final is a bit like a handicap race. Wenger's horse is already carrying an injured jockey and packing concrete.

Conte's expensive Russian thoroughbred is odds on favourite.

 

[Beany]

Tomorrow's game be like...

 

[Tir Na Nog]

All reports suggest Ox will be ready, therefore could start at LWB should Gibbs not be ready in time (tho Ox might be favoured over Gibbs regardless).

 

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

It's a final, anything can happen!

(Remember 2005)

In future when you Google 'battles won against massive odds', there'll be Crecy, Agincourt, Thermopylae and the 2017 Cup final.

Don't be so bloody negative!!!!

 

[tap-in]

Either way it's a simple win for Chelsea.

Chelsea are the favourites but this is an FA Cup Final, its the one where any team can win and the underdog has shown that on many occasions.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

A repeat of the 2005 final would not go amiss. That was one of the best goalkeeper performances I have seen. Still they managed to give Rooney mom instead of Lehmann...

You're a good lad

Don't be so bloody negative!!!!

That's not negative is it? I thought Makingtrax was saying we would win

 

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

[karl]

Sorry, I'm not superstitious. No lucky underwear or anything like that.
