Didn't expect to see Barkley ready for match time so soon.

Chelsea done a good job of not letting scum find any rhythm and momentum.

He's probably not ready lol

The commentator has just said that in case of a draw the game will end after 90 minutes. I thought it would be 120

 

[tiger666]

Should have been a booking

 

[Johnny J]

putting aside the fact that 22 sending offs would be the prefered outcome....who are folks cheering for in this game? Think am leaning towards Arse sneaking the win via a penalty with a load of sending offs....

I think there's more chance of Arsenal's season imploding if they lose, because they seem to have fragile confidence. We really need them to finish below us.

He's wrong. Away goals count only after extra time.

Moses has psyched himself out.

Got the ball stripped from him twice by Iwobi and now being sheepish.

I really don’t want arsenal in with a chance of winning any silverware so want them to lose this game. I bet they don’t though.

I would put good money on Conte leaving this summer regardless.

hope so....can't stand him but he is a good manager

Several high profile journos, for what it's worth, have said that he's unhappy with the club, and the club is unhappy with him, and that it's understood he'll be replaced.

It's fairly obvious by the fact that has done nothing but complain all season, and doing things like recently saying he doesn't care if Hazard is annoyed by being subbed. I mean, he's right not to care, but Chelsea will hate him saying that about their star player that they may struggle to hold onto this summer.

Yeah I've got a feeling he'll end up at Madrid.
No chance he'll be at Chelsea next season imo.

Is that Ant, Dec or a mix of the two?

It's a cross between the Mekon and some twat.

I think he'll be back in Italy tbh. Though Zidane has to be on thin ice, despite about 8 trophies in 2 years lol

He's wrong. Away goals count only after extra time.

Only a o-o draw would result in extra time according to radio 5?

Edit. just read the actual rules and let's hope for extra time see how Barkley copes with 90 minutes?

 

[Gb160]

No that's the only way there'd be penalties.
Away goals only count after 120 mins, not 90...so if it stays 1-1 we get extra time, but Chelsea will go through after extra tine.

From the BBC website ...

Let's get this laid down from the start.

After the goalless first leg at Stamford Bridge, away goals don't come into the equation tonight at the Emirates Stadium until the end of extra-time.

Nil-nil, six-six, whatever. If the scoreline is level at the end of 90 minutes, we are heading for half-an-hour extra.
