Arsenal (H) - FA Cup | Post Match Thread

What's wrong with a coach, jumping the train, transit van with all your mates?

Hotel and flight for an FA cup 4th round away......loaded fucker. Was all your mates sharing your room and the flight?

I would normally and much prefer btw, taking the train. I don’t enjoy flying that much. However, for a Friday night kickoff at 8pm and given there are no trains today from Piccadilly to Euston, I had no choice but at extra expense to fly and so staying over for the night was the only option. My mates had separate rooms, of course. Motel One Piccadilly had good rates at £79 per night. Sad thing was, we couldn’t find a decent champagne and caviar bar in Manchester ;-) ..though we did have excellent fish and chips for lunch at Mr. Thomas Chop House served with Manchester caviar (mushy peas). They also serve a decent pint of Guinness. I heartily recommend it.
 
No you don't.

Since the world cup we have beaten you, Chelsea (twice) Liverpool and Spurs and if it wasn't for the most ridiculous offside decision at old Trafford we would of beat the scum. Not bad for a team who the media are saying are playing poorly.

Now bear in mind we have probably only been playing at around 75% and you have been going at full plet and your still only 5 points ahead of us with half a season left.

We are just warming up and know how to deal with the pressure of a tight runin to the season. This Arsenal team don't. I'm 100% confident we get a result at The Emirates and well beat you at the Etihad.

You'll be at least 5 points behind us come the end of the season
Very good post;)
 
You're basing that on...?
logic, more games and travel may cause you to drop an odd 2 points where you shouldn’t. Look at the record of teams after a midweek European match vs a team that was rested mid week, there is big difference
 
We had played less than 48 hours beforehand at the Emirates, another away at Brentford, with a left-back who had been beaten up in his home the night before and still won.

Our form isn't disconcerting, Arsenal's has been excellent and you will have to be nigh on perfect to still best this City team, such is the benchmark we have set for ourselves and the league in general.
Absolutely agree. I absolutely could see Arsenal losing to City in title race but i can see us winning it to

No gravy?
 
No. I didn’t say we are big favorites to win league. The bookies do though that is their business. I haven’t seen prime city yet a little more than halfway into season. Maybe you will show up and it won’t be enough or Arsenal crumble. But yes the number of competitions you are in will hurt your form in league unless you guys bomb out

Agree with that and if there is one difference for me this season, it’s that the best player in the league for the past few years, De Bruyne is not himself. He looks a level down (and is he carrying some extra timber?).
