Having won 7 of our last 8 it seems that arsenal have steadied the ship. This weekend will be a big test and i think that the majority of the pressure is on chelsea to win. What i am enjoying the most is that we are not attracting any media attension, we have just gone about our business and that is great to see, compared to a month ago when we were under serious pressure from the media and people were calling for wenger to be sacked which is absolutely ridiculous. But now the attension is on the manchester clubs and chelsea to a certain degree and thats suits me fine. Because it is still very possible to move up the table as newcastle will fade away and i don't expect liverpool to be major challengers for 4th, i expect it to come down to us and tottenham. Nevertheless things are looking up, vermalen is on the way back and park chu-young played very well last night and it was great to see ryo miachi make and appearance as he is a top player and i hope to see him make more appearances in matches to come, i have also been impressed with kolscieney recently and we will need an astute defense when we go to stamford bridge. It will be a tough match as always but we are on a good run of form and can definately get a result.
In honesty I think we'll be beaten this weekend. Its one of our toughest games and they'll be looking to respond to the QPR game. I'm hopeful we can get a draw but Chelsea will be heavy favourites. Head says 2-1 Chelsea, Heart says 1-1 (My dreams say 0-2!) My only hope is that if we do lose the 'crisis-wagon' isn't dragged back out by everyone.
Don't expect anything out of this game tbh, a draw would be nice, a win unrealistic. These are not the kind of games we should be targeting if we want to make top four this season.
Get your predictions in on the prediction league fred Going for 2-2. I reckon Chelsea will be feeling the effect of the trip to Goodison and having lost to QPR, they'll be some doubt in their minds too. Whatever the outcome of this game, as the OP says, we are steadily and quietly getting this season back on track
