... are there for the taking, I tells ya! Their heads have gone. They've crumbled. I think they might even struggle to get past Wigan. If we can stay focused and get the better of Sheff United, then a Wembley date with the Gooners wouldn't be the mammoth task we thought it would be (if they even get there!)
This wobble could dump arsenal outside the top 4, leaving the FA cup Europa League spot for the winners, and qualifying Man U into Europe (assuming they don't finish 6th anyway).
Same but not if we beat Sheffield United, unless Wigan beat the arse of course, then I'd be more than happy for it.
You know what Polly13 I was thinking exactly the same thing weeks ago. Arsenal have a top manager in AW along with some outstanding players but their wheels are slowing coming off one by one. I for one am not overly concerned if we happen to cross paths in the final. If football taught us anything in the quarter finals ( Wigan beating Man City) no one has a divine right to beat anyone
It's their best chance of a trophy for a long time! I hope you're right but I doubt they're there for the taking! I just want to get to the final anything else would be a massive bonus.
I am more concerned about Everton Toffees sneaking into the 4th spot. Arsenal have Man City at home followed by a trip to Goodison.
here's a scenario.. We beat Sheff Utd Arsenal beat Wigan (both in FA Cup) Last game of season at KC, Everton need 3 points to finish 4th We'd be playing Everton for a place in Europe They'd be playing us for a place in the CL shoot-out..
Useless Gunners last night. Could not even beat an average Swansea team ffs. Keep this up and it will be Wigan who reach the FA Cup Final. AW confirms that his big players are still a few weeks away from playing again,. (ie. Ramsey, Wilshere, Ozil to name but 3 of them). Hope that Liverpool can put Slumberland to the sword tonight. Have read today that the Mackems players left at the end of the season face a 40% pay cut If they go down to the championship. Oh dear...... Lol.
Everton have both Arsenal and Man City to come @ home in April before they come to us on the final day.
