I predicted Arsenal would beat Chelsea today, and they duly delivered.
Not only did Arsenal make history, by completing the Pre-Season Treble, but they won all 3 titles without the best player in the league, Alexis Sanchez - who was given a well-deserved break after winning the Copa America.
Hazard still has to add more goals (or assists) to his game to be considered on Sanchez's level. Only 13 non-penalty goals & 11 assists in 52 apps last season for Hazard. Sanchez: 25 goals & 12 assists in 52 apps.
The fact that Arsenal, minus their current best player, beat a full-strength Chelsea team in front of a full-house at Wembley, is a psychological hammer-blow to Chelsea... and the rest of the league.
If Arsenal stay relatively injury-free, I don't see how they won't win the PL title this season. They have the best attacking options by a clear margin, and a solid-enough defence.
History made... W/O Alexis

I have no idea why so many arsenal fans on this forum get some sort of kick out of making themselves look like idiots. It's very weird.

It's still pre-season. Pre-season is about shaking off the rust and bedding in new players... not worrying about winning meaningless trophies and then getting delusions of grandeur.
Chelsea have looked rusty in PS, but they'll turn it on when it counts

It's not an age issue. They are a punch-drunk set of fans.... so used to getting battered and looking stupid that all rational sense has gone; it's why they go crazy whenever they get any victory, no matter how tiny.
