Good start to the weekends football but not sure whether I want an Arsenal or Chelsea win?

Depends on your opinion.

Are City still in the title race? Arsenal win.
Are City fighting for top 2-4? Chelsea win.

Just up to us to win really.

If we win we would, at worst, be 4th or 7 points behind Chelsea.

I like the idea that we could cut the lead from 12 to 7 points in 5 days.

Maybe a bit of a confidence wobble from Chelsea, they weren't great the other night against Candlepool. If they drop points in the following couple of weeks against opposition they should be beating easily, I can see them crumbling.

Yes, and if they lost and we won it would be...

1-0. There's no way Arsenal are going to get anything today. They're gash.

It wasn't a poor start from arsenal in fact I thought they were more likely to go get the opening goal but this is what Chelsea is about this season.

So spineless year after year. Know a few arsenal fans who've given up supporting them until wenger/the club decide they want to actually try to win something besides 4th place

I think Matic has a bet on Arsenal winning the corner count.

that was an awful fall. worse than the flailing arm. wasnt able to brace himself and fell flat on his back with his head hitting the ground too. awful.

note: everyone on NBCSN (arlo white, lee dixon, and graeme le saux + plus all analysts in studio) believe that it wasnt a foul on Alonso.

Ian darke defending it that alonso was "just protecting himself". Imagine him saying that if it had been a City goal.... Never in 1,000 years

I thought that was a free out on Bellerin. He nearly took his head off.

Elbow to the face and goal given.

Neville, tyler... every cunt and his brother will say it was a perfectly good goal.

Funny old game
