Chelsea 0-0 Arsenal Carabao Cup Semi-Final Leg 1 Stamford Bridge • January 10, 2018 Where did this come from? My latest match reviews have been pretty morose.

Last Chance Saloon for Wenger, Senior Fringe Players and Arsenal’s domestic season – CFCvAFC Semi
We take on Chelsea for the the second time inside 6 days and my fear Wenger is going to field a squad not dissimilar to the one which crashed out of the cup three days ago. Mercifully, there’s the small matter of these guys having to play a second game in just a matter of […]
