    They needs to be another goal in this match, I'd rather Arsenal win than the game finish a draw...

    Good link that one! Commentator said us hitting the bar is poor finishing and Arsenal hitting the post is a fantastic effort. Also just said Pickford was lucky the ball hit him in the midriff! When in fact it was a cracking save!

    Looks like you will get your wish. Personally, I think a draw would have given us a boost and now we have just conceded again

    We can't really cope with 3 games in a week, so an extra game a few days after Tottenham would have been far to much, imo. Extra fatigue and injuries. No thank you.

    Think we've played ok here. Good counter attacking football but undone by some very good players. It took getting Ramsey and Arteta on to break us down.

    We were fine until O'Shea went off then our defence crumbled.

    F@ck the FA Cup this season we've got bigger priorities!
    We don't need anymore hindrances. My only disappointment is Beadling or any of the other kids that are doing so well this season never got a chance!

    League survival is imperative. I'd love a good cup run but I know what is more important. Both clubs are run like **** houses and I can't see an improvement any time soon.

    A good Cup run is a luxury for any team that's not in a relegation battle.
    Unfortunately we haven't earned that privilege.
    The League is our bread and butter, that's got to be both our teams main focus between now and May.
