Hazard, Costa and Terry on da bench?

Ok oh

Only one we will miss is Hazard. Terry will be rusty, and Costa is short 1.

Decent lineup, Zouma was dreadful vs United and Costa has been poor for far too long. Batschu hasn't much this season, does he remember how to play football? Talent perhaps not best utilised.

NLD Cup final.

Chelsea still favorite for this match.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

^On current form, no they're not. Cowardice needn't be a colloquialism nor a culture amongst the Spursites, Tottenham are in formidable form and are certainly in the ascendency. Vertonghen at fullback, is MoPo borrowing from Mourinho's manuscript? man-marking fullbacks?

With Costa and Hazard, it was a hard task. Without them, it makes it a tougher task.

Jimmy Floyd-Hasselbiank. One player I liked very much, even as an Arsenal fan. Classic K-leg is still there.

wow!! gutsy lineup by Conte. Ok with dropping costa.. But no Hazard or Cesc and I struggle to see how CFC will maintain possession or moving the ball around effectively.

This looks more like a counter attacking set up. Back 3 also lacking height with Ake/Azpi not even 6ft tall.. Not sure if Ake can hold his own in a physical battle with Kane/Alli
Lampard: 101 goals and counting.......

Indeed. Absence of Walker and Rose is most worrisome. The last match the battle was won in midfield. I pray the boys do well. Nerve wracking this.

Azpi captains the team on the big stage. Good luck to him.

Chelsea suddenly has found pace with the addition of Moses and Willian.

Alonso losing to Kane at the back is worrisome.
