The first silverware is up for grabs this weekend with two of Arsenal’s enemies in the final waiting to shine in glory.

Chelsea will line up against London rivals Spurs in the Capital One Cup final at Wembley on Sunday

Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea will lit up Wembley stadium for the last time this season after they were kicked out the FA cup by lesser opposition. Bradford’s victory at Stamford Bridge still gives me a good reason to smile at Mourinho.

This is a repeat of the 2008 final where Jonathan Woodgate grabbed a late winner for Spurs, in a season where Jose was sacked. Avram Grant was in charge.

Harry Kane had made mincemeat of Chelsea’s defence this season in that 5-3 goal haven that left Mourinho dumb. Will he rise again this weekend? Will Mourinho get his revenge? Chelsea is expected to grab the trophy but football is done on the pitch.

Without being involved, Arsenal fans will need to choose who they prefer to lift the trophy. For a Nigerian Gooner, the choice is quite easy: Spurs. There are no chickens around to troll us and the sight of seeing Chelsea lose especially under Mourinho is like Christmas.

I would love our little mischievous Spurs get the victory over Chelsea. Hopefully we retain the FA cup with Manchester City winning the EPL with Chelsea knocked out of the UCL in the semis. Another trophyless season will be great for Mourinho. But all are mere wishes.

I would love a game full of cards, especially red ones. I will love the ripple effect in the Top4 and title race. *Grabs a cold home made juice*
