Problem is Pep's so shit we will probably win, which will give Wenger a lifeline.

Seriously....we better not win this because the final will be total humiliation. Imagine a NLD final with the scum taking the p*ss singing "We want you to stay". In our current form, Chelsea or spurs will roll us over in the final. Here's hoping City demolish us.

Been offered free tickets with work and I've declined them. Don't see the point.

Really its all done to the players if they want to win this cup they'll play and win all the games.Its that easy if they want to ,they can do it with ease.

But there's no positives to gain from winning this game or the FA CUP. You just extend wenger & status quo life. Its a double negative to winning.

Better off loosing. Hopefully we get rocked and home the fans go nuts with the chants,

A stat that I just noticed, for if we win the FA cup and apologists start telling us to be happy with a cup and stop moaning:

In the past 5 seaons, the only manager other than Arsene Wenger to appear in an FA Cup final and still be in his job 12 months later was Steve Bruce.

In other words, an FA cup will not be enough. It should be nothing more than a cup to celebrate if we win it, and should never be used as an excuse for poor performances in the more important competitions. It wasn't good enough for Wigan, it wasn't good enough for Villa, and it shouldn't be enough for us.

What a very misleading stat.

2 of those clubs are hire n fire regardless (Di Matteo sacked within 12 months of CL win)
United becoming the same + it was Jose coming who they'd been begging for
The rest were all relegation fodder.

Maybe we need to be more like Chelsea and City but nothing to do with the FA Cup, it's a great trophy.

An FA Cup is Wenger's last chance to step down with some dignity. Of course even if we beat City, which is doubtful, we won't beat Chelsea or Spurs on current form.
