30 November 2025 804 comments

avfc82

The final match of Gameweek 13 sees Chelsea play host to Arsenal.

Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is at 16:30 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

Mikel Arteta makes two changes from Gameweek 12, both of which are enforced thanks to injuries sustained by William Saliba and Leandro Trossard.

Cristhian Mosquera and Gabriel Martinelli get promotions to the starting XI.

Enzo Maresca makes just one alteration from midweek, as Joao Pedro comes in for Alejandro Garnacho.

Estevao retains his place on the wing, while Cole Palmer returns on the bench.

LINE-UPS

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Gusto, Chalobah, Fofana, Cucurella, James, Caicedo, Estevao, Enzo, Neto, J Pedro

Subs: Jorgensen, Acheampong, Tosin, Badiashile, Santos, Palmer, Gittens, Garnacho, Delap

Arsenal XI: Raya, Timber, Mosquera, Hincapie, Calafiori, Zubimendi, Eze, Rice, Saka, Martinelli, Merino

Subs: Kepa, Lewis-Skelly, White, Odegaard, Norgaard, Nwaneri, Madueke, Gyokeres, Jesus

Evening folks 🙂

Pope*
VVD Richards Senesi*
Saka Mbeumo Semenyo Minteh Sarr*
Haaland Mateta
Dubravka / Thiago* Alderete Diouf

Pope not likely to start midweek but I'm just going to let Dubravka sub on this week - if there's a chance he's fit again very soon, I'd rather keep him.

Have 2 FT and need to make 2 FT this week as Senesi & Sarr are definitely out.

A) Senesi & Sarr > Timber & Anderson
B) Senesi & Sarr > Munoz & Anderson
C) Senesi & Sarr > Lacroix & Anderson
D) Senesi & Sarr > [NEW DEF] & Anderson

For D, which if Thiaw/Livramento/Burn? (D is tempting as Tottenham are proper crap...)

For scenarios without NEW defence, there will be money ITB which I'll use to upgrade Diouf > NEW defender next week.

... or anything else? Could keep Senesi too - but only BUR in GW17 looks worthwhile

  As a huge Munoz fan, B, but the fixture congestion might be an issue
  
  If D, though, Burn is probably the safest route, Livra the most fun.

  There's an argument to be made for all of them. Might be tempting to try and get ahead of the curve with Burn/Thiaw.
  Are we sure Timber starts midweek? Probably does taking into account Saliba/Gabriel are out, but it's something to keep in mind.
  Lacroix/Munoz have been great and have the best entry point, though Europe has taken a toll on them, they always look like conceding towards the end of the games.

Raya
Virgil, Richards, Senesi
Bruno, Ndiaye, Semenyo, Sarr, Saka
Mateta, Haaland (c)

Got the exact money to do Senesi and Sarr to Munoz and Minteh. Munoz rising tonight.

Would you make these moves?

A Yes
B No

I owned Foden for bloody ages. Lost loads of value, no returns. The moment I get sick of him and get rid he returns and now every one wants him. This game drives me mad at times.

Rice continues to squeeze out points.

Never known such a consistent pts scorer be so low in our reckonings. Not with everybody but certainly for most.

  He's been on my radar for weeks, but there's always something else to do with a higher potential ceiling, or another fire to put out first. Annoying watching him rack up the points - should have just taken the hit first as last. Will be in on WC for sure.

Maresca on whether Reece James can play another 90 minutes against Leeds: "No, it is a no, the reality is no."

"It was a fantastic performance, but we need to manage."
