5 Strong Reasons Why Chelsea Might Defeat Arsenal In The Community Shield by AllNaijaBlogger(m): 5:23pm On Aug 01, 2015 |
Despite being an Arsenal fan, I believe that Arsene Wenger’s team will go into the community shield match tomorrow as the underdogs. Arsenal will have to be consistent in playing their formidable attacking style that has given them a lot of goals and wins on their recent preseason matches in order to be able to defeat Chelsea. Here are five reasons why I feel that the game against Chelsea will be an uphill battle for the Gooners- 1) Wenger has never beaten Mourinho’s Chelsea; Yes, Arsenal has never defeated Chelsea whenever it has been under Jose Mourinho’s management. Wenger has achieved only 5 draws and 7 losses against Mourinho. This means that Arsenal must do something different against Chelsea. 2) Chelsea has a better attacking force; There is little change in the line-ups from the previous season for both teams. Chelsea has proven to be a more deadly team in attack as they scored more goals than Arsenal in the past season (73 goals to 71). Furthermore, Chelsea has two powerful striking backup options on the bench with regards to Radamel Falcao and Loic Remy. While Danny Welbeck is the only backup for Olivier Giroud in Arsenal. 3) Chelsea has a stronger defence; Here are some few stats to prove this- -Arsenal has not scored Chelsea in over 482 minutes -Arsenal conceded more goals in the last season than Chelsea (36 goals to 32) Also, Arsenal has one of the slowest defenders in the EPL- Per Mertersacker. Another unfortunate fact for Arsenal is that Gabriel Paulista does not have any significant Premier League experience as a defender, since he is somewhat still a “fresh” signing. Gary Cahill and John Terry are rated far higher than both of the aforementioned Arsenal defenders. 4) Chelsea has done penalty practice; Chelsea’s last preseason match saw them beat Barcelona on penalties (4-2). This means that Chelsea will be more formidable if it comes down to penalties since it has been relatively long since Arsenal has officially played penalties. 5) Chelsea beat Arsenal at their last Community Shield meeting; Yes, Arsenal lost to Chelsea (2-1) ten years ago at their last meeting in the Community Shield. History is on Chelsea’s side. It is also worth mentioning that Chelsea is the better trophy hunter between the two clubs seeing as Chelsea has won more trophies than Arsenal in the last 5 seasons.

AllNaijaBlogger:you made quite good points. But, Arsenal won all their preceeding matches, with Olivia Jiroud they have an edge over chelsea as the best airial treat, arsenal also has a better mid field than chelsea with a combo of Santi Carzola + Aaron Ramsey and Mesut Ozil, with pace having Walcott and Chamberlain, free kicks specialist Santi Carzola and to round it up they have Chelsea's nemesis 'Peter Cech as the best goal keeper in England 37 Likes 1 Share |

iamkingzlee: Arsenal played cheap teams. Everton, Singapore XI, Wolfsburg, Lyon etc Olivier Giroud is not worthy to shine Diego Costa's or Falcao's boots. Hazard, Ramirez, Fabregas, etc....Chelsea has bad azz midfielders. It is not going to be an easy match 1 Like |
