    Think you've missed me out of the Draw column.

    Whoops, apologies.

    Will sort it out at half time and edit as appropriate.
    Easy mistake to make. With all that excitement :)

    Makes a nice change for a South Team to play better than a North Team I suppose B)

    60th minute:

    Giroud is fouled in the box, and Hazard slots home the penalty.

    It's all about saving face for Arsenal now, they have been ripped apart in the first 15 mins of the second half.

    Chelsea 3 Arsenal 0

    Be quiet, and wave goodbye to Butland who is off to play for a bigger team - Bournemouth.

    60th minute:

    Sensational volley by Owobi pulls one back.

    They need another quickly now, then we might just have a game.

    Chelsea 3 Arsenal 1

    Think you'll find that is West beating South pretending they are North :)

    Time to tell my favourite joke ever.

    What does an Arsenal fan do after winning the Champions League?
    Turn off the Playstation, and go to bed. Sobbing into his pillow. :)

    I'm waiting for Tikay to announce that Chelsea have decided to declare

    69th minute:

    Hazard, in probably his last Chelse game, snuffs out any chance of an Arsenal comeback when he slots home from a lovely Giroud pass.

    Chelsea 4 Arsenal 1

    Chelsea were the least popular of the 3 selections, but 10 entrants are not complaining as their 7/5 shot coasts home hard held.

    Well done to;

    Yes, very flat wasn't it?

    Not helped by being in Baku, of course.

    The empty seats and the weird distant camera angles didn't help. At one point, i thought I was watching Sensi Soccer.

    What genuinely surprised me was how flat Arsenal looked, in what was a massive game for them.

    Not been a bad season for Arsenal overall-but the last 6 weeks or so has been grim
