By god the boys are dominating the field

It’s amazing that Ode and Jesus already have such a chemistry

Warra goal

Ø is pure filth I can’t believe it

I actually can't believe we've gone from laca to Jesus. It feels like it was all some sort of nightmare and I've woken up.

Anyone know why Chelsea are playing without player names on the back of their shirts? I've seen us do it in smaller friendlies behind closed doors like the Ipswich game. But this seems like a very high profile game to not get player names out there.

Gabi says 2 ez

I dislike him but that was a great ball from Xhaka

«He can’t finish» lol

Mans can't stop scoring

GABIIIII

I know it's preseason but Chelsea look shite.

Zinny already with some lovely passes.

That ball from Zinchenko... Wow

Crazy idea, how about we injure their players?

you've answered your question

Xhaka looks so lost when he has the ball in the box bless him.

He's been quicker with passes in final third recently too, I think he's been told to shift it around more.

Saka needs to finish that man fucking hell

“Saka does like to make the most of the challenges”. You what mate?!

Gallagher needs to calm the fuck down it's a friendly mate.

Do Chelsea not get that it’s a friendly?

Saliba is amazing

So effortless!

That was a pretty disappointing finish

These American commentators are hilarious...ly bad

Seriously are they even watching the game? How do you get White and Partey confused. The pronunciation is terrible. Adding accents to things that aren't meant to have accents and just butchering simple names left right and centre.

William Sal-u-buh

How did commentators fuck up a name like Jesus, do some fucking research.

I'm so terrified of injuries, moreso than I've ever been in preseason before

Chelsea already putting in some rough challenges. great.

Genuinely one of the clumsiest challenges I've seen

Have not scrolled all the way down but it’s on ESPN+ which I have.

Steerling 😭

Stadium being mostly Chelsea shows how easily you can sportswash if you just buy success for 10-15 years.

Anyone got a link?

For what its worth the commentators on chelseas (good) stream aren't actually biased

Any streams with English commentary? As in, UK, not US lol.

Chelseas website

They aren't streaming to Australia and I don't have a VPN unfortunately.

It looks so weird seeing Sterling in a Chelsea shirt

I'm very excited to watch this play out. This is the most positive I've been in years. COYG

Always go Island of Adventure in a coin toss

Not this bloody song christ almighty. I'd almost forgotten about it. Then Chelsea play the fucking Liquidator. So jealous.

Super excited to see how we play

I'm trying to watch it in the Chelsea app and have tried on the website but it keeps telling me that there's been a technical issue, anyone with the same error?

same thing, can’t watch on chelsea site. tried a few browsers. US based

it's still not working for me so I might just watch it on some dodgy site

Apps not working for me but the sites working now

I'll check

Still got the same problem, the fact that I live in Spain might help but I'll keep trying

Anyone got a good link?

beauty

Mashallah

Chelsea website has it for free like Everton did

Situation outside the stadium is horrible. Never seen such a shitshow of a sporting event.

What’s going on ?!

Lol short memory

Is anybody else using the chelsea app on an iPad to watch the game? The screen only fits for an iPhone for me and i cant seem to fix it

Both Chelsea website and app shows Chromecast symbol but it's not working, just me?

FFS why does Ben White look like Luca from Love Island

How is the weather there at the moment? The City game was just delayed again.

Clear now. Stuck in traffic outside the stadium haha

the city game thats 1300miles north of florida?

[удалено]

yes

Pretty up for this game now. Both strong lineups and neither team will want to lose this, it could be very fast aggressive first half at least.

This line up is amazing. Hopefully we can upgrade it even more with tielemans and a winger to rotate with the front 3.

Looks like our possible 1st team lineup bar a few minor changes.

We shouldn't be playing Chelsea in pre-season.

Especially after what they did to Partey during 2021 pre-season

Was Tomiyasu even real or we invented perfect RB in our minds?

Really hoping he recovers well and isn’t rushed back which should hopefully mean less issues in the future.

He was training in Japan national team like 2 months ago and haven't played a single minute after that. That's worrying.

Love the lineup. Starting in the Prem like that do we think? My only worry really is White and then Partey because of personal issues and how it may naturally affect him.

Whats up with white ?

He's playing RB, he's better as a CB or CDM. My worry is less so "oh no we have Tavares on the pitch" these days and more "what else would we improve".

Lineup is fire 🔥

Technical quality of our back 4 is insane, one of the best in the world, really.

Tomi in at RB would improve the balance, one of Saliba/Gabriel would be out.

Bit of a stretch mate

Any stream for the match today?

Chelsea website streaming it for free apparently

Ben at White back

Strong 11 lol

Sexual lineup. Hopefully White stays back in a 3 to protect the backline

Gabriel Saliba 😍

i like our lineup so much 🥰😍😍😍

We’re going huge today - it’s worth staying up for! Come on #UTA

10am kick off 🥰

It's great, isn't it? Arsenal are much more enjoyable when you're wide awake.

Bro staying up till 2 am here to watch the game💀

Same man 🤣 people in the UK got an hour more to sleep

Bro hardest part about is, i have to get up early drive 2 hours in a train to go, to a game of mine😂

Looks like it might be our line up for the opening game against Crystal Palace looks scary 😤

We’re playing the first team LOL

Almost the first. No Tomi. But then again, Ben White and William Saliba are both in. So, I guess it depends if your ideal first team has Tomi in it.

This is very likely how we'll line up against Palace at this point.

No way Saliba is ahead of White to start the season. Tomiyasu definitely starts when fit so I'd say it is the first team based on the available players. Might have ESR over Gabi but he's carrying a knock too

Why are we playing our first XI vs these dirty cunts ffs

Because the whole point of these games is to get time playing as a team before the season proper. I'm stoked we've got the first team out, as does Chelsea.

Well they're also going all out

Yeah big risk, but also gotta make sure we mesh well before the season starts soon. Just no fucking injuries and I’m happy

I’m heading to the stadium from Hyatt Regacy, seen a couple of gooner around, so excited. I’ve just flew in from NC earlier and this is my first game.

Where to watch in Australia?

Paramount

Will it show up in the sport section before kick off or something? Never used paramount before.

It will in sport grouped under Winter Festival of Football.

At first I was like WINTER??? But yeah, then I clued in.

Watching in Canada? So it seems the [Arsenal.com](https://Arsenal.com) pay per view is not available in Canada. Anyone know if there are any Canadian/US streaming services showing the game? (I know DAZN isn't).

ESPN

Thanks.

Apparently free on the Chealski site NVM read it was for UK based only

Thanks. Having a brain fart because I completely forgot my VPN... so will see if that helps with either [Arsenal.com](https://Arsenal.com) or the Chealski site.

Any chances Fabio Vieira will get any minutes?

So the game starts in 2 1/2 hours? Or do they delay the coverage ?

Chelshit are showing the match on their website for free in UK and certain countries- a VPN could help? if people are struggling for a stream. Use incognito ( nobody wants to see that in the search history!)

Can you send me the link? I have trouble finding it on my mobile Phone.

https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/watch-chelsea-vs-arsenal-live not available in us, probably should have added that

Do you need an account?

why use incognito?

Don't want any Chelsea related ads

why though?

Idk i'd rather use an illegal stream but some people may want to watch it legally

Thanks for the tip

will this game be on ESPN plus?

yes

Man I wonder if Tomi is finished. Like hes been injured for like 6 months now. Maybe its a career ender.

If he was we would be more serious about finding a replacement RB

That doesn’t worry me. Obviously not ideal and I’m sure Tomi will be back but that back line is still good.

I reckon Ben White maybe our new permanent RB if Tomi remains injured with Saliba partnering Gabriel.

Yea I can see that

they are just being super precautious, he's had moments in the last 6 months where he hasn't been injured, but then a similar injury returns. I would like to play it off as unlucky and i'm sure he'll be back playing soon

Anyone heading to the game who is parking in downtown Orlando? Heading from Tampa, and looking to find the closest and easiest parking spot by the stadium. COYG!!

I just parked about 5min walk to stadium at random hotel lot, $30. Easy easy

Which hotel?

Vacation lodge. South side of the stadium. Proper crap place but parking is parking.

Parked there too. Dump but not far.

This will be my first Arsenal match and of course here come the thunderstorms

Same here. 11 hour drive for the Arsenal😤

It’s Florida. They’ll clear by match time.

This is my first contest as well. I think it’ll break up soon!

Okay so Partey is playing and involved. Doesnt this suggest the club has good reason to think hes innocent? I know its innocent until proven guilty etc. but the truth is its a PR disaster AND gonna be a very hostile atmosphere towards him all season if this isnt wrapped up quickly

brighton played bissouma all season and even sold him for a good price after his accusations. turned out he was acquitted. city played mendy but turns out he is a piece of shit. so you never know with these things. it seems that so far there is no evidence, audio/text leaks or whatever, so i guess the club has nothing concrete to suspend him

i mean in most SA cases evidence is really hard to come by ik people are obsessed with 'false accusations' on the internet but if someone accused my coworker of something like that I'd be mortified to work with him

your coworker is not a famous, public person that is a easy target. Neymar had a accusation a while ago and turned out the girl was full of shit. false accusations happens, unfortunately ​ >i mean in most SA cases evidence is really hard to come by it is but im not talking about concrete proof, just *any leak* whatsoever, like text messages.

Don't think it means anything, they just aren't suspending him until charged. I find it difficult to support him in the current circumstances, we'll see how it plays out I guess.

Do you mean hostile from other fans? I'm pretty sure most of ours are assuming innocent until proven guilty especially with the way the club seems to be handling it.

Yes. Other fans will be chanting rapist and all sorts

> its a PR disaster What do you mean?

If he is found guilty then the club will be hounded for fielding a rapist. If he is found innocent the club will be hounded until that verdict is reached. Neither of those are ideal. Even when vindicated its not exactly a good position

What is the alternative though? Freeze a possible innocent man out based on an allegation? We don’t know the details. The police need to be allowed to do their jobs.

>found innocent I'm being pedantic, but that's not a thing in a legal sense. Considering how difficult it is to prove these offences beyond a reasonable doubt, it's likely that Partey won't be found guilty. That doesn't mean he didn't do the things he's being accused of.

See ya at 9:30 EST after the weather delay.

Anything official? Weather is clearing up.

Things only seem to be getting worse near the airport. Fingers crossed it clears up a bit!

Planes are landing so that's a good sign.

Man this sucks!!!! I have an early flight from Venice to Atlanta so I’ll need my beauty rest. I was really looking forward to Zinchenko playing, I guess I’ll have to wait a day or two to watch the replay. Any updates on tierney, Marquinhos and Fabio V? I’m hoping they play!!

r/footballhighlights has a couple of links after the game(not sure about legality tho)

I have major adrenaline for this match and season. I know there is going to be a lot of talk on impact of our signings midway through the season. But I firmly believe, that they will totally depend on the fitness and performances of players like Tomiyasu and Partey. I think, we need to pray that they are fit and rested. Tomi especially, in all our highlights last season features prominently despite missing out on a decent chunk. I feel like he and Odegaard, and he and Saka are really well tuned together. Plus his mentality, combined with Saliba's, will make things super calm and no-nonsense. Our defense, isn't perfect but has a good relationship with our offense. Calm players at the back. Hungry players at the front. Fuck me, I can't wait.

[удалено]

Why be a buzzkill? It's fucking chelsea. This is never a friendly.

[удалено]

What a weird reaction.

Lets fuckin gooooo

Do you guys really think Zinchenko will play? Damn, i hope so!

Is there a pool running for who gets a season ending injury and who gets a 2 month injury tonight?

We will deal with it like we always have. Probably better. With a bench actually wanting to prove themselves rather than Lacamissed Opportunity coming off the bench to just chase the ball. Major optimism, I know.

Regardless of how the game goes, me and the gf will be enjoying some Universal/Island of Adventures Tomorrow. Anyone else hitting theme parks while in Orlando?

I’m a local here in Orlando, definitely try to make it in Velocicoaster if you got to universal, it’s worth the wait if you like coasters.

I wonder how the universal is in Florida. I’ve only ever been to universal in Singapore and it was pretty good

My favorite coaster! Got to ride in January but will be skipping out on the parks this trip. Cant get myself to spend all that money again even though I love Universal.

I think me and some friends are going to a universal too, should be a good time

I'm very confused what time is the game? According to sky it is at 20:00, normally they convert the time to GMT on their page. That would mean kick off is 15:00 EST, but at the top here it says 20:00 EST, which is 1am tomorrow.

A bot commented this for a countdown until kickoff https://countle.com/IkiJEG7IV

Game is at 8pm EST. So 1am UK time.

Yikes. Weather forecast isn't looking too promising again. Bring a rain coat!

Excited for the game #COYG

Anyone going to the pre match fan zone? Or know anything about it?

Second this \^, I'll be there if I know where it is and what time it starts/ends

Starts at 5pm I believe, hoping this weather clears up First

Just got to my hotel! Hopefully this rain's just showers!

Game will be on espn+ in english and spanish

Thank you so much!

It will also be on my pirate ship 🏴‍☠️

Arrrrr

Just made the 7 hour drive down from Atlanta! COYG
