CARLING CUP FINAL ..........


Not sure if the stadium will be full at kick off, there have been huge road and rail problems, for the massive number of fans, heading to Cardiff this morning. If ever a final should have been at Wembley, this was it.


Arsene Wenger is going to keep faith with the youngsters, that have taken the Gunners to the final, so no place for Gallas, Henry or Ljungberg and Lehmann and van Persie are unavailable.

TH has had a very poor season, by his extremely high standards, he just looks lethargic and to be honest, Arsenal look more of a team, without him. Wow ! Never dreamt that I would be writing that.


John Terry is making an early return to the squad and Jose Mourinho, is claiming to be treating the match with the respect it deserves. Which could be taken two ways.


Think we will see a fairly open game, Chelsea have scored 30 goals in 11 starts and before last week, Arsenal had notched 39 in 14, they also have only one clean sheet in 8.


Ten of the last 12 h2h meetings, have produced 2 or more goals, at an average of 2.583 per game. More of the same today.


5 points over 2 goals Chelsea-Arsenal 1.70 asian line.


Good Luck.
