yes
Good! It's brought us a lot of unwanted attention over the past few years. Other clubs tied to them are trying to get away from it too.
We better win the league or i am done. We cant let that Bernardo Silva C&&* lift the trophy as captain.
Bournemouth can go one point off pool in 5th if they can beat Man City and go into the final day with an outside chance of a CL place. Unfortunately Villa won’t show up at City on the last day so expect a cricket score. Hopefully we take care of business ourselves.
It's frustrating waiting until tomorrow for the match!
so we have Man City in the charity shield then
If City win the league then Chelsea are in the charity shield
After 6 games today I'm already buzzing for tomorrow night, can't wait! Final home game of the season too. While I'll be delighted with a boring 1-0 to the Arsenal I've a feeling we'll blitz Burnley. For some it could be their last ever game playing for Arsenal at home. 5-0
Thats the spirit DenMan!
it was confirmed yesterday that it’s Arsenal v city at Cardiff 🤷 the sun and other tabloids have it online
Chelsea cannot be involved, it’s the fa cup winners and league winners or second place
flights might be cheap now just don’t go to Wembley 😂
What lineup are we expecting tonight?
I'm confident we'll go into it with the right mindset. We started very well against West Ham, but just didn't get the breakthrough we needed early on. Hopefully tonight is different.
I'm very nervous!
Really? Strange one. Maybe I have it wrong in my head. I always thought it went to runner up in the cup in that scenario
Seems it was the same in 2023 too. My mistake
Heres the rule:
The Match10. The Clubs eligible to play in the Match shall be the current holders of The Football Association Challenge Cup and the previous season’s champion Club of The Football Association Premier League. If the said champion Club is also the current holder of The Football Association Challenge Cup, the previous season’s runners-up to the said champion Club or such other Clubs as The Association may decide.

I am pretty nervous too as the assumption is that we will win comfortably and then its all on for tomorrow night.
That said, we are not too far from full strength and have a nice weeks rest so bring it on !
I’m going with a 1-0 nervy affair
2-0 with the second coming very late in the game…
What I wouldn't give for an early blitz of 2 or 3 goals to kill the game early & leave my nerves intact for Sundays game which still has a greater banana skin potential.
No excuses though, nerves or not, these are a poor side and we should be beating them without much fuss.
I'm going with a 5-0 win tonight
Haha I bloody wish!
You want 5-0 and to be 4-0 up in the first 20 mins 😂
Something like the Fulham one would be very much appreciated
I have a good feeling about winning big tonight, so I captained Big Vik in my Fantasy team and brought in Trossard too (already have Rice).
Definitely worried about Sunday, and I would very much welcome a Bournemouth gift tomorrow!!
On paper, they should make short work of Burnley, but I expect acute psychological torment.
I assume we would all be perfectly happy with a comfortable 3-0 win?
3-0 means we cannot win on goal difference which is only reason why I am putting forward that scoreline
I'd be delighted with a 98th minute OG to win 1-0
Getting the 3 points is all that matters
I think we could do with a good performance and a comprehensive win tonight, in preparation for Sunday. From the little I saw of Palace yesterday, I don't think Sunday will be a walk in the park, so mental boost would be good.
Bollocks you would !!!!!!!! 😂
One step closer to the title. At this stage of the season they keep their good performance for over in Budapest. I just want results here
I would be relieved at final whistle if this happens but not sure I can handle another 100 mins of this type of game if I am honest with you.
