Way to young to be gone. Hope there will be a moment of silence for him before the game tomorrow. Really hope we can win tomorrow as it will be very hard to catch them in the league. This team deserves a trophy.
All things considered heading into this match - I feel pretty confident about securing a result. With a rivalry like this and our difficulties at Wembley this season you can't be too sure though. It would be nice to put the whole "we play like shit at Wembley" sentiment behind us while also dealing a blow to Chelsea's mental stability for the home stretch. It will probably be a heated affair so we must avoid a boneheaded red card at all costs. We all know what happened when Alli and Dembele missed time due to reckless behavior down the final stretch last season. It is going to be interesting to see how both teams line up. Rumors are that Cahill may miss out due to illness. If we go 3 at the back that means we would probably have to sit an in form Sonny, though the formation worked well last time out against Chelsea.
There is a minutes applause prior to kickoff, and the fans have planned for another one during the 44th minute. Both teams are wearing black armbands in remembrance.
Congrats on the win guys. You were in better form anyway but without hazard we have literally no chance.
Son goes down way early, Moses makes no effort to avoid the tackle (why would he?), contact is made. And that's a dive?
We can't have nice things. Played well but didn't do enough with our chances. Can't gift a team like Chelsea goals and expect to win, because they will score some without our help.
I don't think we gifted Matic's goal lol, that was insane. Let's just do our best to prevent the double, cheer for Man City tomorrow cause I can't stomach an arsenal chelsea final.
Couple of obvious points here but: ~Chelsea has the best depth in the league and it's really not even close. ~Not going to beat a side like Chelsea (or any number of teams in Europe) with those kinds of mistakes and the poor form at times. Easily could have been 5 with the Lloris no call. ~Could really have used Danny Rose today.
I'm still in an awful mood. One of these days I'll quit getting suckered into believing the inevitable isn't going to happen. 7 straight FA cup semifinal losses...Jesus, that's fucking pathetic.
I'm still being reactionary from the loss yesterday, but it's hard for me to envision us finishing top 4 playing a full season in Wembley. I pray we at least get out of the UCL group this go round. Fuck, I hate that place.
