Around SBN: New York Giants Super Bowl XLVI Ring Unveiled

Chelsea vs. Arsenal: open thread

Chelsea vs. Arsenal
Kickoff: 745 AM EDT
Stamford Bridge, Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, London
TV Coverage: ESPN 2, ESPN3.com
Form: Chelsea WWWLW Arsenal LWWWW
SBN Chelsea perspective: We Ain't Got No History

Oh, it's just a London derby. If Arsenal can win this somehow, things will suddenly be feeling a whole heck of a lot better. If they lose, it was expected anyway, and it's an away loss, with the match at Emirates still to come later this season.That being said, oh my, would a win be welcome. Even a draw would be welcome. Hopefully the Chelsea left side of Mata and Cole don't run our makeshift right back ragged, if it is in fact Laurent Koscielny. He has pace, though, and is an excellent tackler in the air. Still, Chelsea will probably play through the left A LOT today.

Feel free to comment on all the action below.

Chances are good I'll be running when the post goes up, so for now:

"Lineups forthcoming*".

COME ON ARSENAL

Lineups
Arsenal: Szczesny; Djourou, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Santos; Song, Arteta; Walcott, Ramsey, Gervinho; van Persie
Subs: Fabianski, Jenkinson, Vermaelen, Rosicky, Frimpong, Arshavin, Park

Chelsea: Cech, Bosingwa, Ivanovic, Terry, Cole; Mikel, Ramires, Lampard; Sturridge, Torres, Mata
Subs: Blackman, Luiz, Romeu, Malouda, Meireles, Lukaku, Bertrand

The CC quarterfinal is, according to the Arsenal site

three days after Fulham at home and two before Wigan away…so we might not play the kids (or at least entirely) since it’s City, don’t you think? I know it’s the Carling Cup, but it’s also Manchester City. It shall be interesting.

couple things

Theo should have two assists. Per Mertesacker’s marking on that goal was utter horse shit. Terrible.

Liking our attack thus far, should get on the board if we can get out of our own way.

Had Per been marking RvP on that, Ramsey would have been clear and Robin would have been open.

Yes I’m busting on Per. He deserves a bit of stick after his defending on the Lamps goal.

This ones on Wegner. Leaving Santos on finally took it toll, and he just took our best player today off the pitch.

Wooo 2nd half we played so well,

and that when i started watching. We defended so well in the 2nd half. it was amazing

by gunner921 on Oct 29, 2011 10:00 AM EDT reply actions  

Amazing second half

 4-1 in the second half, with the one just being a blip because the ref was too big a prat to call the foul.

And he’s done it again! ROBIN VAN PERSIE

Never have I been so upset to have missed a match.

From all information I can glean, I missed a doozy of a game. Shit.

by Learn2Leaf on Oct 29, 2011 10:12 AM EDT reply actions  

It was incredible

Great action in the first half, and Arsenal shored up defensively in the second half, save for the Mata goal

We HAVE to take advantage of this momentum builder

We’ve got a fairly easily schedule coming up for the next few EPL games, we should definitely build off of this victory and take max points

speaking of “LANS!” – at one point darke bestowed that label upon Wilshere without the slightest hint of sarcasm. I thought it was hilarious.
