The Offside Chat Episode 25: SET PIECE AGAIN OLE OLE!

This week The Team is joined by longtime Friend of the Show Samson as we discuss Arsenal beating Chelsea in game of the weekend. Another prime time 4:30 kick off for Arsenal vs Chelsea and granted it wasn’t an instant classic as neither team played to the very best of their abilities, the game was decided by three set piece goals to have the neutrals crying about the state of the game (WE DON’T CARE CRY MORE!) Despite the attacking struggles and lack of genuine champagne football on offer this ended up being a routine win for Arteta against Chelsea, he’s unbeaten in 11 against The Blues and unbeaten in 5 years at home against them as well! Chelsea must be sick of the sight of Arsenal now after enjoying a period of dominance in the mid 2000s the tide has turned back to early Wenger days! Elsewhere, Manchester United kept up their fine form under Michael Carrick to go third in the table with a win over Crystal Palace. Can United end the Season in a Champions League spot and if so does Michael Carrick get the job as the permanent United Manager?
