I'm gunna need a lot of booze.

Noooo, I'm doing dry January.

Noooo, I'm doing dry January.

I only drink at football. It's just not the same without it...

Hes n

Martin Atkinson is the ref.

He's no mike dean

 

[ljinko888]

Feel confident.

We're hitting our stride. Obviously they're in an unbelievable run but all runs come to an end.

Derby game under the lights at WHL.

I predict it'll pan out like the City game. Early goal and we're away.

2-0

 

[yusrisafri]

I predict 4-3.

We will lead 2-0.
They will reduce deficit to 2-1.
We then score 2 more goals to make it 4-1.
They then score 2 goals with 5 minutes remaining. 4-3
Squeaky bum time. We hang on desperately to win 4-3

 

[chinaman]

Hope Dier gives Costa a hefty kick in the shin in the last minute of the game.

To win tonight, we'll need 10% luck, 20 % skill, 15% concentrated power of will. 5% pleasure and 50% pain, 100% reason for them to remember our name!

I think it will be 3-1 or 1-3.

 

[edson]

Need all our key players to perform and we can win this game.

Crucial that we win tonight, not necessarily for the top 4 race but if we have higher ambitions than that.

Chelsea have been on an amazing run, hats off to them, and they obviously have a lot of momentum behind them. If we can halt that momentum and beat them, it might just open the title race up again.

No way our boys won't be up for it after the debacle at the end of last season - 2-1 Spurs, us to lead 2-0 again and then actually see it out this time. Hopefully a Costa red card in there too.

 

[tommo84]

I'm strangely confident for this one, partly because they're due a slip. The worry is that the players and the crowd will be so fired up for this that someone could do a bad challenge early on and get a red card, or we simply start so fast that we run out of steam as the recent fixture pile up catches up with us.

Feels as though it's absolutely crucial that we score first and score in the first 30 minutes tonight.

Massive game for the whole top 6 this - anything other than a win for us and Chelsea will look home and dry. On the other hand if we do win we will be in a very strong position for another Top 4 finish at least.

Noooo, I'm doing dry January.

Better to do dry July it sound better and there is no football.

Better to be 100% lucky.

 

[worcestersauce]

No doubt about the one less day having an effect but to be honest their last game was hard and ours was a stroll in the park, nobody had to put in much effort in the entire second half and it was only pissing distance from home so we should be good.
Chelsea are on a great run but earlier on they were winning easy but the last few games they've found hard so they are due a defeat.

Fort Minor over here...

 

[Cavehillspur]

Really fancy us tonight, 3-1 win and up to 3rd. Chelsea's run to end.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

The team we field tomorrow night could go down as one of the most powerful teams to been seen in the prem yet.

Walker, Rose, Alderweireld, Wanyama, Dembele, Sissoko, Dele and Kane.

If they all start its immensely powerful looking side....Eriksen hopefully be able to pull all the strings for us!

Don't forget Dier- Fabregas hasn't

 

[TaoistMonkey]

Just waiting for all the Gooners saying if we lose tonight we "Bottled" 3rd spot as if we are favourites for the game tonight.

 

[vAs]

I am going with 3-1 too (Toby, Kane, Costa, Eriksen).

 

[Romulus]

Oooh its a big game. I'm nervous already. the country's eyes will be on the lane tonight
