Eddie hinted in the interview before Arsenal that he deosn't really see Bruno as the midfielder playing higher up, hinted you need someone faster/bigger engine to make the recovery runs and Bruno's strength is in posession.

Longstaff was brilliant on Saturday. But let's not get carried away, he has been dogshit for most of the season (not the only one though admittedly). Him, Bruno, Joe, Willock, Isak all raised their games and therefore we won reasonable comfortably. If the team truly has gotten it's mojo back then Longstaff will continue to play an important role as others have outlined. But should things get a little difficult again and we need to do something a little different, be more creative for instance then his limitations will be on full display again. Yeah Bruno/Tonali is a difficult one. From Eddie's interviews, he focuses on Tonali's flexibility so you think he's not quite yet figured out where his best position is. Also says Bruno's style is suited to deep lying possession, and Tonali's is more athletic. All of which makes sense and indicated the thinking still is for Bruno to be the holding man and Tonali to take up the box to box role.

That Zirkzee seems to be another honking signing. Ten Hag really was a gift

Lets get past Woods' Forrest before getting carried away. Also, we wont be signing anyone again unless Miggy and Wilson decide to finally bugger off.

Another excellent performance from Hall and Tino. We could have the two best full back in the league in a couple of years.

The question now is can we do this against the lesser teams again. We've always been able to raise levels against bigger sides.

Not easy on the eye the second half but it felt comfortable. Arsenal barely got a look in. That's two fantastic results after a tough period and the team looking more like their old selves. Crisis over

Get in

Oooh let off we switched off for a second there.

I thought fitting in Barnes was the problem bit with willock and Tonali fit, Joe on the left really works well. Barnes an impact sub again this season?

Brilliant half, more of the same please. Delighted to see the energy back. Joe on the left makes a big difference

Still no yellows for them

Silly yellow Schar

If the footballing Gods are good this bloke turns out to be another Ten Hag and they go for Southgate come next summer

Eddie's comments on Wilson, I think he might have just had about enough "He's ok, it wasnt a real injury, just can't push hard enough. We'll leave it till after the break". Something along those lines.

Cracking draw that. Home as well we should be really up for it. Hopefully Arsenal and Liverpool manage to slip up somehow

Good cameo from Osula tonight. Looked up for it and showed real sharpness. Might be a decent player in there somewhere.

Anfield or Emirates away tie for sure.

Good result and performance. Chelsea clearly couldn't give a shit today but there were some positive signs for us again.

Chelsea's answer to trying to find a goal is throwing Cucurella up front apparently. Lovely.

Oooh so unlucky Osula! That was brilliant play

Let off there again. Felix showing why he has to switch clubs every year.

The pen appeal? Looked soft

Isak and a couple of others look out on their feet here, time for changes.
