13 fouls from Chelsea so far
Premier League Festive Season
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Because the 6 teams below them seem to be playing a collective game of ‘top 4 is lava’.
Now got it on 5 Live, so at least now lagging behind.
Wtf Luiz 
How the feck is he not getting booked for that. He clearly left his foot in with intent.
That follow through kick from Luiz 
Clown. That’s a yellow.
Clown. That’s a yellow.Luiz looking like he’s punting a ball away in the NFL with how high he got his foot up.....but no call from the ref for a high foot
Is Arteta copy pasting Pep on the sidelines?
Aubameyang is really doing his defensive duties
He even dressed up like himIs Arteta copy pasting Pep on the sidelines?
Kovačić is amazing technically.
Chelsea are woeful. How are these fourth? Is everyone else really that bad.
Kante is a fine, fine player. His movement is in a different class entirely.
he'll slipping a few PEDs into the Arsenal teamIs Arteta copy pasting Pep on the sidelines?
It's like watching Pep
Yes everyone has been shocking. If they lose this it’s 8 defeats in 20 league games and 4th with that is unbelievable
Well, we are 1 point behind them. So yes, everyone else is really that bad.
Have you seen us play this season? ;-)
Chelsea are so rubbish, badly need reinforcements.
Nobody quite knows so we guess. Like the theory that they only struggle v deep laying sides despite having an abysmal record v the top sides.
No Leicester, Liverpool and city are better. Also wolves can go ahead today.
Having watched the 1st half of Arsenal v Chelsea it looks like Arteta has got reaction out of Arsenal. More compact and organised than I have seen them for a long time and each and every player is working their socks off, even David Luiz looks decent.
If Arsenal bring a simliar performance to Wednesdays game it will be a very tricky encounter for United.

Arteta only needed 1 week to implement his idea But Ole needs a season and more players to implement his style.
Luiz is complete liability, why they signed him I'll never know.
Awful attempt at countering by Chelsea
I thought Ole did implement his style, hence the contract.
We'll know more about Arteta's style in the coming months. As it is it's work in progress.
Can't believe we didn't sack Ole and go for Arteta. Woody Allen out!
Oooh a bit of a fight....
What happened there? Only caught a bit of it, looked like the arsenal player went for a bit of a punch while on the ground?
Does he have one yet? I think Soljskaer is using this season to develop the finer details of his own style beyond the generic idea of fast counter attacking using quick players running in from wide. He doesn't have much experience and he hasn't had such a talented group of players before, so it's somewhat understandable.
The key word here is fully. They all came in with well established styles of play and everyone knew beforehand what to expect when their teams eventually started functioning well. Obviously it takes time to teach the existing players that plus to get the right players in. I don't quite know what Soljskaer's style of play is. And none of us have any idea what Arteta's style really is. We're just assuming that it's going to be heavily inspired by Guardiola's.

Anyone think the Blades can get a result today? If we do, think I’ll be spending the night in Manchester
Come on Tariq my son!
Im not worried about Sheffield and wolves. They won’t make top 4 even if they both win their next 5 games. Personally I think we are better than both Chelsea and Tottenham. We also have the transfer window to strengthen our path.
Yes. Think Wolves can too.
Bit of naive to take off Tomori when you dont know if Rudiger can continue.
Not a chance for wolves.
Looking forward to AFTV hyping up Arteta as the second coming and then watch it all come crashing down
Youngster named Lamptey comes on for Chelsea. Remember Championship Manager legend Nil Lamptey? Good times
