Chelsea visit Arsenal on Sunday knowing
that victory will take them one big step
closer to a fourth Barclays Premier League
title. Victory for the leaders at Emirates
Stadium followed by three more points at
Leicester City on Wednesday would secure
them secure the trophy with four matches
to spare.
Jose Mourinho has also a chance to
extend his unbeaten record against
Arsene Wenger, the Arsenal manager, the
Portuguese enjoying dominance in this
fixture with an undefeated streak
stretching back 12 matches across various
competitions. The relationship between
the two managers has been fractious in
the past, but Mourinho is focused purely
on the match ahead and not the history
between the two men or clubs.
"For me he is not my rival, I don't feel
that,” Mourinho said. “I just feel he's the
manager of a big club in the same city
where I work and live.
"We're big clubs with the same objectives
and because of that there will always
come a little bit of rivalry but for me it's no
different to when I was at Inter with the
Milan managers or in Real [Madrid] with
the Atletico managers.
"I'm not proud [of his record over
Wenger], for me an achievement is to win
[on Sunday], not the other 12 matches
that we played before against Arsenal, I
don't look to this.
"Every match is a match, no relation to the
previous or the next one, what they [the
players] care about is the way we work all
week and the way we prepare ourselves
for the game."
Mourinho confirmed that Didier Drogba is
fit after an ankle problem, although Diego
Costa (hamstring) and Loic Remy (calf)
remain doubts, with Under-21 star
Dominic Solanke in line for a Barclays
Premier League debut.
Cesc Fabregas is set to make his first
return to Emirates Stadium since
departing for Barcelona in 2011. Wenger
has called on Arsenal fans to respect the
Spain midfielder who was captain at
Arsenal.
If Wenger is to earn his first win over
Mourinho, Sunday might represent his
best opportunity for some time, with
Arsenal coming into the match on the
back of eight consecutive league victories.
Arsenal are 10 points behind Chelsea, but
Wenger remains confident his side can
close that gap.
"When you are fighting for the
championship - and I know that well -
when you are on a good run, sometimes
you take points that in another season if
you were two or three places behind, you
would not take," he said. "The focus and
belief is there and is a bit stronger that we
can take these points.
“The difference between the teams is not
only measured by the difference in points.
"But nobody has given Chelsea the points.
They had to fight for it and they made it."
Wenger described defender Per
Mertesacker as "50-50" for this game with
an ankle problem, with Gabriel Paulista set
to deputise, while Alex Oxlade-
Chamberlain (hamstring) and Mikel
Arteta's lack of match fitness means they
remain absent.

Arsenal in trouble. Emirates on Fire... KTBFFH...

I see a lot of ’’fans’’ supporting their club because they win trophy, but im not one of those fans, I’m a fan of Arsenal because I love them, I don’t know why my heart is focused to support that team, they’re not the best team ever , maybe they will never be the best team in the world, they don’t win much titles but you know that feeling that you have inside you that makes you love something even more even if that is not the perfect thing , well I know that feeling , because being a Gunner is not easy, but it’s even harder to not love this Team , since I saw this team for the first time I knew that I’ll be a fan of them and now I’m transformed into a Gunner. I support Arsenal with everything in me, when they lose it really hurts but that doesn’t mean that I will not support them anymore, they have made me like you know a big Gunner everytime that I see them crying my heart just breaks , they try to make us proud and we try to let them know that they are not alone, that we are with them every day, every minute and every hour! We will always love & support them, so if you’re once a Gunner you will not love any other team anymore , Once A Gunner Always A Gunner . Many players will come and go but I will always be there supporting them everyday and more .It’s not easy to be an Arsenal supporter, but It’s worth all the tears and smiles that they give to us!

UP GUNNERS
