All joking aside, I am not sure it is even worth discussing yesterdays game in any context, we would have to be very unlucky with injuries, form and transfers if that same group of players takes the pitch to start a League game. You'd have to think that at least four of Courtois, Christensen, Kante, RLC Willian, Hazard & Giroud will come into the side.

It's an overpriced pre season friendly and has not had any relevance since Drogba smashed up the Arsenal defence in 2005.
