Afterwards Taggert kicked a boot which hit Beckham in the head leaving him needing stitches !

Also the game I think when Ryan Giggs missed an open goal.

best miss ive ever seen

2008 when we lost 4 nil
but jens picked out rooney on the edge of the box and lauched the ball at the back of his head!
classic
big cheer in the away end, you could hear it on the tv broadcast but i think they were showing a replay at the time.
the only good thing about that trip...

Pick the strongest possible team, no question.

I remember that as well, classic stuff from mad jens

Hoping we turn up with a point to prove after going out of the CL rather than going out with a wimper for a change, we have more chance of winning the FAC than the title in my opinion so just praying we don't turn up to find Squillaci and co in the team...

Can see them playing a strong side. Taggartâ€™s more likely to want them to click back into gear & get the last 2 games out of their system ahead of their CL match than rest them. Especially since he no doubt scents blood seeing as weâ€™ll probably be demoralised & knackered. Be surprised if he didnâ€™t see it as a massive opportunity to send us into a tailspin.

Can imagine Wenger going for one of his half-measure mix & match line-ups. Weâ€™ve got a week off till the next game & mid-weeks off to come now weâ€™re out of Europe, so we may as well just go for it. Whatever the rest of the line-up is, if we play Squillaci & Miquel at CB with Denilson in front â€œprotectingâ€

Full team out. Why on earth not? 7 days to recover after this one. Game will depend on what team Fergie puts out. If it's his full team they'll strangle us with the usual high tempo game they play against us, if it isn't, it's 50-50.

Why cant the fringe players come in and try there 100000000000000000000% hardest. Run all game and play like warriors. There not that shit that they donâ€™t have these basic essential qualityâ€™s in a footballer playing for the mighty Arsenal.

We have to rest RVP have to. Barry and Cham should give it there all!
