Arsenal (H) - FA Cup | Post Match Thread

You know the only minor criticism I had with playing the game out they didn’t kill time. In the 86th minute Ortega rushed out & saved & it was offside. Against us Keeper would have gone down & physio on needing 2 mins of treatment. Within 30 seconds they had another attack we need to be a bit more shit house.

Yeah. Someone tried to take a quick free kick as well. You know I still find that refreshing. I thought Bernie helped play the game out better than anyone and it was his best performance in a long while.

Strange, why?

Strange he's getting riled up from what appears to be nothing.

You really think 22 days from now, that after the first 5 minutes of the match at the Emirates, that this will result will mean anything in that match?

Oh my god

You’re right, you seem to be taking the loss well.

Sat at home again have you?

I didn't go tbf, rarely these days, still love City though and always will, please don't start the "I'm a better fan than you..." bit, though no doubt you're miles better than me ofc. Even so, I'll never boo my players nor team, ever.

Just about deserved the win. Ake played Saka superbly and kept him from coming inside and shooting. The League games will be tough, as they should be, but they don't look better than us.

Alvarez gives us so much more energy .

Shame his shot hit the post ….it was a thunderbolt. Love the lad and think he brings so much to this team.

 

[Dribble]

Fair result. But it will have no bearing on the league meetings as some would suggest.

All that it means, is we are out of the FA Cup, and you are through.

Agreed...

Easy to think like that.

I remember losing to Chelsea in the FA Cup and thinking it means nothing.

We then lost to them in the League and the Champions League Final.

Losing has a psychological affect on any team, we would know, we've watched our side sweep up records and trophies for over a decade now.

Absolutely. We were much the better team but it didn’t matter. They had the Indian sign over us that year

Yep quick free in about 88th minute. How many times did Everton have the the physio on. I agree it’s refreshing & it should be controlled by refs but until they do we are naive.
