wigan have now won 6 matches in a row, 4 of which were away..im getting scared, will be a tough game

They can win 46 games in a row and still be more inferior to last year's Wigan team, which we beat comfortably home and away.

Magic of the FA Cup will be there though, but no reason for anyone to be "scared."

Yes, we already knew he was off. Let's not restart this shit ... yeesh.

I have a huge respect for anyone who is ready to take a significant pay cut in order to actually play football. The reason I want Sneezey to play is because I think he is a better and more consistent goalkeeper; it has nothing to do with Flappy's contract situation.

On the back of yesterday's result and on the back of our title chances being ended just how big is our game v Wigan?

Basically Wenger's last 9 years of failure comes to this. If we don't beat them or don't win the FA Cup overall then he should leave once and for all!

Arsenal v Wigan is arguably the biggest Arsenal game since Barca 2006.

If we lose we will NEVER hear the end of it. Think yesterday, 8-2, and Brum 2011 put together.

Can the boys do it?

They can, probably will, but might not.

Sick of all the optimistic talk to be honest. Lets not count our chickens.

I know there's the argument about it being a one off game and anything could happen, but with the draw as it is, it would be disastrous to not win it. Given our recent performance in these big games, including matches we should have been able to win, it would confirm the major issues we all know we have but on a bigger scale. If your aiming to be a big and successful club you don't waste these opportunities and we have water every good chance we have had for success since 2005.

If we can't seal this one then we need a radical change in our approach.

Shady

Any word on whether Ramsey will be back for this?

big pressure on the lads against a weak opponent because, lets face it, if we cock this up, it confirms that we are indeed specialists in failure.

winning the cup won't even be an occasion to celebrate for me - will feel more like a letoff after a shitty season (or 9 seasons).

Claudius

I think we will conspire to lose this. I can feel it. When it rains, it pours with a Wenger team. We should actually sack him now and hope for a new manager bump for the run-in

Kurtz

Losing this would be a travesty. Fans at the Emirates would start chanting anti-Wenger slogans.

Clrnc

They have already started chanting to be fair.

Tactics

We'll win this IMO, by 2 or more goals.

If we play like we did against spurs and Chelsea we will get mullered by Wigan. 8 wins in a row for these lads and it will be a proper game that we will prepare poorly for.

SimplyThePest

Reckon we'll get past Wigan, but get done in the final.

Impressive predicting, especially as we don't yet know which of the giant killers we'll play.

Then you should just give up on football altogether.

Rex

I concur. If you can't get properly happy when your team wins the FA Cup then I think questioning whether you want to be a footy fan is in order.

Gazza M

winning the cup is the only thing i'm looking forward to now. we need something tangible to come of out of this season to bolster the team's mentality. belief and confidence is everything at the top level

invisibleman18

Absolutely desperate for the cup. We'll find a new way to fuck it up though.
