Also City game is back on.
Pre-Season Friendlies (2022/2023)
- Thread starter Hoof the ball
- Start date
God Timo really struggles with this whole football thing.
looks like chelsea is playing a 442 almost
Really well taken goal by Jesus there.
Chalobah the feck was that 
excellent pass by Chalobah to Xhaka for the hockey assist
Is this Chelsea's first pre-season game this season?
Chelsea looking very poor till now
We've played a lot of the deadwood in the first 2 for some bizarre reason so our main lads haven't had as much game time as they should have.
It is just a friendly game. Nothing more.
Yea Chelsea look so sluggish and off the pace. Arsenal are dominating them.
Also Jesus was such an obvious transfer we should have been all over. Really baffled why we didn't hijack it.
He is not a big name, and a City rejected. Perfect for Arsenal.
Really? Looks like plenty of your first team have played to be honest in both games?
Maybe they actually saw you as a threat
Are Chelsea linked with any strikers other than Ronaldo? They are screwed if they are going to be relying on Havertz and Werner.
Jesus's agent said you did but it was too late. He's been tapped up for months.
Id agree. They look toothless.Are Chelsea linked with any strikers other than Ronaldo? They are screwed if they are going to be relying on Havertz and Werner.
Friendly games are just used to bed in new players and bring players in shape. Chelsea will be fine.
Havertz looks even weirder with short hair and Mendy looks a bit shaky. I hope we change the whole team at the half, these blue c*nts are going in hard into challenges.
Chelsea look a bit pathetic in this 442
Leroy Sane has been quite the flop for Bayern. It's undeniable.
That is true but they look really off the pace here and not at all ready for the new season. People like to shit on United but even Chelsea have only 1 new player playing out there and the other is on the bench.
Not sure where the goals are going to come for them. None of their forward line is a recognized goalscorer and Werner is plain terrible.
Grealish in mid saeson diving form
Arsenal's new recruits from City worked with Arteta before, so there is no need to bed them in. Chelsea's forward line is almost the same as last season, they will be fine.
The American commentator actually confused Ben White with Thomas Partey.
Criminal
These 50M players all look the same... Nice shot from Mount, unlucky not to score.
tbf Ben White has got quite a tan on and I thought it was Saliba on the right for the first 10-15 min.
In the United match the commentators spent 15 minutes talking about how nice and gorgeous the australian city is and how they would totally want to live there.
Holy shit
Time to rotate players for a friendly.
2-0 Arsenal
It's impossible to play a chill friendly game against Chelsea. Always turns to shit.
As if that hasn't been ruled out
Saka looked a good bit offside there.
Edit: Closer than I thought with thst last replay.

The good ole days. Offside by 5 yards but it still stands.
Offsides are turned off in the Florida Cup. Vibes & goals only.
Chelsea getting hammered here!
