    4-0 City. De Bruyne turned up the heat. And now they bring on Sane. How many more in last 20?

    Well, you had better dine on it for years.

    Arsenal: 13 League titles, a record 13 FA Cups

    Chelsea: 6 League titles, 8 FA Cups.

    Interesting time for summer transfers

    doesn't matter - we could sign Pele, Fray Bentos and bloody Bernard Manning and we'd win the league first year then come 10th the next, as we do everytime we spend some money.

    Oh Arsenal were woeful in the 2nd half.

    Chelsea have another bit of silverware but Hazard is going and given a transfer embargo, you haven't got a replacement.
    So, given the PL, CL, FA and league cup to juggle with a much weakened squad, how do you see next season going?

    You still haven't answered the question.
    Chelsea will be utter shyte without Hazard.
    Why is he leaving? Just a rhetorical question.

    You've moved on very quickly from last night :)

    Anyhow, well done to Giroud who clearly left Arsenal so he could win trophies :wink: And looks like Cech has seen the light and decided that if you can beat 'em, rejoin em :D

    Stevo - congrats for last night.

    Onwards and upwards.

    Also expect a few of our loan signings to come back, like Zouma, Moses, Abraham, Kenedy, Miazga, Kalas and Pulisic. Saves signing new players 8)

    While we're celebrating, spare a thought for Arsenal - they get another crack at the Europa League next season and they won't have to play us in it.

    Manure and The Ar$e are both in the Europa League next season

    Quite a handy distraction from the Premier League for them, what with playing in some far flung godforsaken hole on a Thursday night then having a PL fixture on the Sunday :)
