Fucking hell chippy, at least give us a chance to get a long list of injuries and suspensions before you right us off. :roll:

Have we ever had an easy tie in this cup :?:
A monumental task but not one that we cannot win. We are the Arsenal! We are the best :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not as difficult as you all think.

If we put out reserves, so will ManUre. They're playing CL too remember.

That would make it an even and interesting game that I think we would win.

Bloody hell lads, stay positive. We can definitely turn them over. Played them off the park last time we were at old Trafford and Wenger will play strongest side for this (+Jens)

to debunk the conspiracy theories ...in the last 10yrs, United have played 37 FA cup games... and 29 of those games have been against PL teams...so much for the fa favouring United :wink:


I would have prefered to play the scoucsers at Anfield , but it will be a good game...do you think you will seel your allocation?

It will be an Arsenal reserve team that plays at OT.I cant see Wenger playing any of the big guns four days before the Milan game.As Wenger has said many times before the league and the CL are our priorities this season the FA cup comes a bad 3rd on the list

I was meaning more that at that point the FA Cup is not the priority. We play Milan a few days later, and I would rather have a fully fit squad for that than put a lot of effort into beating the mancs. However if we had the same draw as chavs or scousers we could have coasted into the quarter finals.

Oh I see :shock: misunderstood you there :oops:

Mind you, we still coast into the quarter finals. I suppose it depends upon which Arsenal turn up! :lol: :lol:
