The Arsenal supporters here in the Transfer Tavern were bitterly disappointed last weekend when their London rivals Chelsea ran riot against the Gunners in a 3-1 victory.

Ahead of their game with Hull City this afternoon, Lee Clarke looks at two players who could be in the firing line for being dropped by the gaffer.
