Chris Sutton has figured out a way to annoy Chelsea if he were an Arsenal player.
The Gunners take on Liam Rosenior’s side in the Premier League in what will be a huge game at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
Arsenal beat Chelsea the last two times they faced each other. That came in the two-legged semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.
In the second of those games, Rosenior was visibly annoyed before kickoff, and Sutton has subtly urged Arsenal players to irritate the Blues boss again.
What was your immediate reaction after watching Liam Rosenior’s outburst before Arsenal vs Chelsea?
Chris Sutton shares how Arsenal players can ‘deliberately’ annoy Liam Rosenior’s Chelsea
Arsenal deservedly beat Chelsea home and away in the Carabao Cup semi-final.
The Gunners picked up an impressive 3-2 win at Stamford Bridge in the first leg, setting the tone for the clash in North London.
In the return fixture, as Rosenior was getting his side ready, he was seen having a go at a member of Arsenal’s coaching staff during the warm-up.
That’s because the said staff member stepped into the other half of the pitch while helping the goalkeepers practice their long kicks.
Rosenior made a big deal of that, and Sutton has now claimed that if he was an Arsenal player, he would do the same again, presumably to anger the Chelsea boss.
He wrote on BBC Sport: “Arsenal have got to be careful they don’t warm up in the Chelsea half again, for starters.
“If I was playing in this game, I’d do it deliberately!”

If you could say anything to respond to Liam Rosenior right now, what would it be?
Liam Rosenior’s outburst against Arsenal was unnecessary
Rosenior made a mountain out of a molehill with his outburst against Arsenal.
Players and staff from every club cross the halfway line when practising long goal kicks, as it cannot be done inside your own half.
For Rosenior to rudely shout at the Arsenal staff member and then make another big deal out of it in his press conference was completely unnecessary.
Now, ahead of the game on Sunday, it would be funny to see a few Arsenal players listen to Sutton and do the same again.
It will be interesting to see how Rosenior will react if it happens.
