  • Arsenal v Man Utd Jan 12th 3 PM KO - FA Cup 3rd round

Are we the only PL clubs to draw each other? This is stupid and shouldn't even be possible.

    We are Arsenal football club mate. 4 years ago we won the FA Cup, so what?

    League is all but over. League cup is effectively done and dusted. CL we will never win as we will balls it up in a big KO game (check Arteta’s European record ffs).

    You need to remove yourself from the fantasy land and wake up and smell the coffee. Your glass is half full approach only goes so far.

    The expectations in summer was to win the title and if not win silverware, somehow, somewhere. Lose in Fa cup then it’s not looking good brev.

    Fa cup is our best shot. Lose this then and don’t sign anyone come Jan 31st then see what the mood in the fanbase will be.

      I'm more fussed about beating United than winning the FA Cup till the latter target gets quite a bit closer. But let's beat them then and leave them sprawling, take this opportunity. Injuries or not, if we drop points to United at home the way they're going, we'll have failed.

      Sicario2 - Tier 1 this is all predicated on ifs, buts and maybes. Based on what you've said, we may as well rest our 1st XI for the rest of the season and play our academy lads.

      Even if we expected to win something at the start of the season, thinking that doesn't make it so. We may have underperformed but that's all it is...there are gradations between underperformance and crisis. It's just not that binary.

        Lose today and it’s a downward spiral. Spurs will be smelling our blood on Wed and it could get ugly real quick.

        Just win today at any cost.

          Claudius Neville is pathetic. Still telling the story about the time he acted like a prick, Vieira called him on it and Neville ran away to get his mate to protect him. I'd be horrifically embarrassed if I was him and people were talking about that.

          I would have went with either Rice or Partey in the middle, United are shit in midfield so we could have just walked all over them, Jorginho- Merino - Odegaard is weak and slow...but still think we will do them

          Looks like Neto will not be playing for us ever.
          Califiori out with an muscle injury, shocking player.

            HomeSteak Jorginho- Merino - Odegaard is weak and slow...but still think we will do them

            Not sure I agree that midfield is weak. Slow sure but its a good passing midfield.

              Ashley Cole cursed left back when we refused to pay him £5,000.

                Claudius

                He was retelling the story on one of the podcasts the other day. TBF, if he had a deal agreed in principle and then the club went back on his work, and most organisations do pay their own and internal candidates less than external, he had every right to feel aggrieved.

                  Starting to worry about his reliability in terms of staying fit.

                  I would have gone Partey-Merino against Newcastle and Jorginho-Rice today.
