Any idea if Mendy was actually hurt or the sub is just them being extra careful before the UCL? Kepa playing the final would be quite a storyline regardless of the outcome.

You still finished the season with 5 wins in a row. Maybe Arteta is starting to get his style going and pulling off an Ole-Gunnar thingy.

That is true, we did do significantly better this calendar year. I'm hoping this ends up being like when Chelsea finished 10th in 2016 and then came back to be top-tier

It's shocking Arteta hasn't been sacked. He would have been sacked long ago at any other top club.

Play out from the back 100% of the time, especially from goal kicks, is so exploitable. He's inflexible and the players clearly look uncomfortable. Opposition forwards must lick their lips playing them

I really don't get Luis Enrique... He selects Eric Garcia (lol) over Nacho. And he selects adama traore and Sarabia but leaves out Aspas (13 goals, 14 assists). In addition to leaving out players like Ramos, Canales, Navas, Hermoso, etc, he selects only 24 players when he can choose 26.

Really confusing...

I agree regarding Arteta. I don't see him getting sacked because our board is incompetent, which means that we're almost certainly mid-table for the foreseeable future

He is opening himself up for a real backlash if it goes wrong in Spain with the no real madrid players in the squad.

Mendy did hurt himself and Tuchel said on Wednesday we will know if he will be able to play the final or not. Hopefully he will be ok, it is some discomfort in his ribs.

That is one risky bet my friend. I think finals are the most unpredicable games of them all. If I were you I'd bet on something else ^^

Haha we will try our best, we are defo in the best mindset to play our best game with them now knowing champions league is set. Hopefully the same kinda game happens from the previous 2 where we beat them but all will depend if Kante is fit or not. Kante plus Kovacic i feel is our best midfield to play vs their press. They are going to be super nervous and the longer the game goes at 0-0 the better it is for us, but they are more than capable of blowing us away in the first half haha.

Barca has an out with pleading poverty and that they had the clause that their members would vote on it.

Juve and Madrid are fucked tho and they're going to really swing the hammer for this.


Also rumors that copa America might be coming to America if Argentina's covid situation gets worse.
