Think you'll score 4 or 5
Dont know why you're worried
Agree OP, I think the problem is that you can never be sure what sort of Arsenal are going to turn up. In recent years they have been mentally weak particularly at the Bridge and almost ready to cave in but then you get occasions like the Cup Final last season where they turn up and absolutely annihilate us. They were also marginally better than us in the recent Charity Shield IMO.
Once the game starts then we'll probably be able to tell.
We won't be so complacent today.
Got swimming class with little un so arriving halfway through first half, hopefully we are leading by the time we get to the East Stand
I wouldn't use the last 3 results as a cause for concern.
I could see us losing the fa cup, we had won the league that was the target, it shouldn't but football came off pedal.
Next game friendly, we list all of them without using anything like the team we will use today.
Charity sheild, another friendly and again another scratch team.
Hazard should play today, at least some part and if in form it should be a good day.
I'm taking nothing for granted but I'm not as worried as I could be.
Yup, same here. Not really worried about Arsenal today...we were complacent in FA cup but this is a league match. Focus here is paramount...and we should put at least 3 past them.
Time to avenge the loss from early last season in style.
tbh...they beat you in the cup final off the back of I'd guess one of your worst showings under costa....I think you'll win 3-1
Although being over confident is something I am never comfortable win I must say that the notion that Arsene has got anyone's number is quite funny
If we lose today we beat ourselves with complacency and lack of bottle but if we go at Arsenal , are strong in the tackle then we win just like every other side who does, I do hope fabregas plays though he's so important to us but the lur of kante and bakayoko in the middle of the park to destroy their midfield is very tempting
I have a feeling that we're going to turn up today. We have a lethal finisher for the first time since Van Persie, the players will have a point to prove after Liverpool and the players should be more confident against you than any other big team given the 2 recent Wembley games.
Chelsea 3 5 Arsenal repeat anyone?
I'm always nervous be it Le Ar$e or the Dagenham Girl Pipers - it's just in my DNA!

After learning of Ozils injury I think we'll be set up a bit better defensively and get more help from the midfield. 2-0 Chelsea
If we can keep Sanchez at bay...we should win
I'm still frankly utterly shocked he's at Arsenal, & would've loved to have got him for us
you'll spend all year laughing at us after we inevitably lose today but when it comes to match day you're s***ing your pants
No one has given Arsenal a prayer today. I think this is when when I feel Arsenal may surprise us in this game, it will certainly be closer than what everyone believes. CFC needs to be 100% firing on all cylinders if they are to get all three points.
Man City were doing exactly the same last season. Every year they are the bookies/media favourites to win the league. On paper their team is head and shoulders over their rivals, so in that regard they are the biggest underachievers in the epl.

Even small teams have a good day
Having seen the starting line up I'm even more nervous. Don't like fabregas in a 2 man midfield and cahill hasn't looked great in his limited appearances so far this year
Everyone giving Arsenal no chance and I'm sure they will raise game today. Should have started with Baka and bullied their midfield. Hope we win.
