Isla has been weak defensively the last few at least, I think we are better defensively at RB with Ned there, he's quick too. I agree that weakens us at CB but perhaps Dunne will be back, though the prospect doesn't excite me that much, especially Sunday.
TBH Remy has been bench warming all season and generally comes on late and scores when the other team is tired. Did he not get taken off after he scored last week? That tells me that he is not as match fit as first teamer's. However the problem will be that Chelsea will no doubt dominate possession and it will be our 3rd game in 8 days? I saw at villa that the team looked shattered on 80mins. Another thing to watch is that little diving cheat Hazzad. He will be looking for penalties every chance he gets. Sadly thats the mentality of Jose's Chelsea. The Arsenal boy Fabregas won't enjoy Joey kicking him so a few good encounters to be seen. Hopefully Bobby can knock out Terry's teeth with an elbow and when i last watched Drogba he looked slower than clint. Its all warming up for an unusual encounter. Chelsea are top because over the season they have been the hardest team to beat. I think Arsenal play the much better football but Chelsea win ugly and it will be a very hard game for us. Like most i would take a draw all day, a win and it will be nothing short of a miracle but sadly i see this as a scum win. I just hope our old favourite Remy doesn't score or that racist scum Terry.
I see what you are saying about tiredness Ellers but from Tuesday night to Sunday afternoon, the players will have had 5 days rest. I think professional athletes should be able to play 3 games in 8 days or 2 in 5 days. If they can't, our coaches/strength and conditioning coaches should be sacked.
