Chelsea officially lifted the premier league title on Sunday after thrashing of Sunderland to become champions for the fifth times.
The Stamford Bridge club have been impressive this campaign and have dominated the premier league table for weeks. Italian boss Antonio Conte has successfully won the premier league title in his first campaign with the west London club and is set to lead the club back into the Champions League next season.
London rivals Arsenal, on the other hand, could not qualify for the Champions League, and will be playing in the Europa League instead. But all is not done yet, the French boss will see to the possibilities of winning the FA Cup for the fans this season on Saturday at Wembley.
Former Liverpool man Jamie has favoured Arsenal for victory ahead of the clash. He feels Arsene Wenger’s side have been in excellent form and because Chelsea are prone to relax after their premier league victory, the Gunners will win the FA Cup final.
However, ahead of Saturday, there is bad news for Arsenal fans…
Their French manager has stated that he expects to be without the duo of Laurent Koscielny and Gabriel for the FA Cup final at Wembley. It was also added that Chilean international Alexis Sanchez is also a doubt for the final.
Koscielny was shown the red card during Arsenal’s 3-1 victory over Everton yesterday following an aggressive tackle at the first half. Gabriel was also forced out after being stretched off in the second half due to injury.
