Much More At Stake For Chelsea And Arsenal In Vital Clash
In what could be one of the key fixtures to decide the destiny of the English Premier League title this season, there will be many issues that will be decided by the Chelsea vs Arsenal live streaming English Premier League football match this weekend. Foremost on the rich London club’s minds will be their desire to be the champions this season as that has been their goal for the best part of the last three years. The hiring of Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti was a huge reason why there was newfound optimism at the start of the season. Ancelotti has been successful back in his home country with AC Milan, leading the club to two Champions League trophies and many more in the Serie A. The former was a huge factor in Chelsea club owner Roman Abramovich’s decision to bring him in to helm the English club. He figured that Ancelotti’s proven track record in Europe’s elite football competition would finally allow Chelsea to break the barren run they have had so far on that stage. But first of all, Ancelotti will need to prove himself by winning the Premier League title with Chelsea.
On the other hand, Arsenal have not tasted any success on the trophy pedestal for the best part of almost four seasons. There were even calls from some sections of the club support to get rid of long serving manager Arsene Wenger, whom they accuse of being too thrifty and blocking the club’s success. The fans wanted Wenger to invest in proven quality players from all over the world to deliver trophies to a club they deemed to be a must in terms of enjoying a trophy or two every season. Many times in the past few seasons, the Gunners have also flattered to deceive by leading the Premier League a few times before crumbling away under pressure from Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool. This season has been more of the same, with the club bursting into the lead before being battered into submission by first Chelsea a few months ago, and then Manchester United just a week ago. This time, there is even more at stake for both teams in the Chelsea vs Arsenal live match.
