    Congratulations on the win. On the balance of play you deserved the victory and I hope you enjoy the cup run!

    Towards the end I thought it was opening up enough and Arsenal getting into the final third enough to maybe pull one back and make it an interesting finish but it wasn't to be.

    You defended well, looked sharp on the counter and really put a shift in.

    For us some squad players got some game time, youth a chance to develop with a competitive game and a rest for our first team so I'm not too disappointed with the result.

    Of all the teams left its you guys I'd most like to lift the trophy, so good luck!

    It was heading for the eighteenth row, took a deflection, and will be overturned by the Dubious Goals panel, you mean?

    Two really well taken goals, gave the keeper no chance!

    Maya was absolutely fantastic, as was Reed before he went off. Though some will still slate Maya no matter what <doh>

    Actually they were all bloody brilliant to a man. Such a complete performance... restricted them to long range shots for the most part. In fact, I'm not sure they created a clear chance all night.

    Absolutely fanfuckingtastic.

    Anyone but Liverpool in semis please <ok>

    Great prank you'll all pulling here. Make me think that Clasie scored a good goal, only to get home and find out that an Arsenal goal kick hit him in the side of the head and caromed in.

    Tbh I think Utd are the team to avoid as they will go with a full strength line up and Mourinho loves a two legged tie as he can be a defensive and cynical bastard. He takes this cup really seriously and will see it as a way to gloss over his shaky form in the league.

    Mourinho has got a habit of winning the LC in his first season.

    We want Liverpool in the final though :bandit:

    **** it... if you insist mate we'll just take Hull :D

    Liverpool vs Utd semi would be ideal for Arsenal as it gives both teams two games they will take seriously due to the rivalry between the clubs which means more chance of them messing up in the league!

    Fingers crossed for hull vs Southampton!!!
