Now Chelsea are taking the role of underdogs - I alway root for the underdog ?

Cahill and Smalling the Chuckle Brothers of football

I was hoping one of these two would get thumped. Gets the pressure on Chelsea at this early stage, good for us imo.

If Arsenal are more ruthless here, they could score 6.

I was hoping for a draw with both teams showing obvious weaknesses. Could still see Arsenal collapse I suppose.

When they won the league, they were an over-ripe banana. Now they have gone manky, they stink.

Goons to draw or lose? Which is best? Would take either Just don't want them to win. Chel$ea further away top than the goons imo. Mind you gooners never far from a slip up.

I'm supporting ISIS for this one.

Bet their manager and fans cant wait until we get to Stamford Bridge, it seems its the only f#ckin game their players 'get up for' these days

Wow, just had a peek at the league table to see us sat in 2nd, for the next week at least. Totally surprised to see Palace sat in 7th. Amazing to see what a couple of wins can do

Early days! We have to stop the "mush" from appearing if we want to stay at the top!

Next week is such a massive test and a very good marker indeed to see just how good we really are

Moscow Tuesday and City Sunday is a very tough ask, we already had fatigue in spades in the second half today that will not dissipate too much over the week.

This could be fundamental cause of this reoccurring "mush" you so eloquently described!

You only have to look at the last three line ups to see Poch has been planning for this - and he got three wins on the way

There is actually some science behind it, but I've long forgotten it
