Chelsea v Arsenal

[Will]

Looks like there's an 80% chance Senderos will be our only recognised central defender for this game - not good considering his performances against Drogba last season (and he's playing much better this season). Gallas has a 20% chance of being available, otherwise Gilberto will probably partner Senderos with Cesc and Flamini in midfield, which would be a bit lightweight...

I was quite looking forward to this game considering our record so far against the big teams (and Tottenham) and being underdogs, but with Man U's lead over them going into this game and the injuries/suspensions we have, it's not looking too good. There'll be no Henry or Rosicky either, as well as no Lauren or Diaby of course. Still, I was hoping Chelsea would have at least closed the gap going into this game, so it won't be the end of the world if we lose.

I had a feeling we'd get a good result against them and I still think we might get a draw, though the thought of a makeshift defence including Senderos against Drogba...

an arsenal win hopefully.

chelsea win id think

i think it will be quite close but the home advantage will sway it their way.........

It's going to be a hard game for us that's for sure, Chelsea chasing 1st spot and at home doesn't help. That being said i think were capable of a draw. Although would love to beat them!

hopefully arsenal will win

i really hope Arse get something out of this fixture, but if the injuries are as severe as Will is saying then it's gonna be very difficult...

be more than happy with a draw but if Arse can take all three points then great...
