Does anyone know the genuine reason the game was delayed today?
I heard rumours in the stands but they were of course just that.

Arsenal fans causing trouble on the way in, some with flares. There were also a few sat on by the police on the way out.

You never know Chelsea and City might both get disqualified.

There's more of a chance of Pellegrini trying to punch Jose when they come to Stamford Bridge....

Action replay of the week...

The missing voice-over...

There was a point of this match when Arsène Wenger seemed to have gone into Begbie-from-Trainspotting mode and was squaring up to José Mourinho by the side of the pitch, as if someone had spilled his pint one time too many. Wenger had already shoved his bete noire in the chest and when he went back to prolong the argument the Arsenal manager briefly pushed his face towards his old adversary so they were almost nose to nose. Those were the lingering images of a sometimes wild game when, once again, Mourinho came out on top and everyone could see exactly how far he has got under Wenger’s skin.

Maybe the FA should introduce points for manger interaction.

Any more news on Courtois?

Update from the club this afternoon:

Chelsea Football Club can confirm Thibaut Courtois went to hospital during our Premier League game against Arsenal yesterday [Sunday] for precautionary tests on a head injury. Those tests came back all clear.

Thibaut was treated for a minor cut to his ear and was released from hospital last night. He is expected to report for international duty later this week.
