"Arsenal are a team that wants to look after the ball, they want to be in possession, and their combination play is as good as it gets. If you look beyond the silverware argument [nine years without one] and focus on the football club, they have always been able to qualify for the Champions League, and that shows great consistency. They built themselves a new ground, they are able to cope with losing top players such as Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira and Cesc Fábregas, they develop their own young players and they have a clear football philosophy.

"That seems more of a success story to me than clubs that are prepared to spend £300m to win a trophy. I suppose I am a bit of a romantic, but I think Arsenal have been very successful over the last 15 to 20 years." - Roberto Martínez.

I don't think that is mind games, i think that is calling it true. That's good enough for me. I want us to win but not at any cost.

And to the knockers out there, if you really think we are shit because we didn't throw money at a trophy you have lost sight of the game. You are the ones that have taken your eyes off the ball.

I am afraid that I become a pessimist at this time of the season but I suppose a pessimist is never disappointed.

Arsenal play exciting entertaining football but today is all about winning.

 

[Supine]

Ozil

 

[MrSki]

 

[Supine]

Great goals

 

[MrSki]

Good game. Especially for an early kick off.

 

[TitanSound]

Ace result. Good on Ozil for being man of the match

 

[Gingerman]

Good performance and result esp without Wilshere, Ramsay and Walcott,now onto the Bayern second leg game with nothing really to lose.......

 

[Gingerman]

Chelski v The Spuds...draw? Spud win?

WEMBLEY, WEMBLEY, we're the famous Arsenal and we're going to Wembley!

 

[Gingerman]

Fucking well done to Wigan, who'd have thought it - against all odds!!!!! ...can't take anything for granted though, if they play like they have today, it's going to be a hard match.

C'mon, it should be a breeze, the w/e couldn't have worked out any better.

The League cup final of 2011 shoulda been a breeze as well....

 

[Streathamite]

the w/e couldn't have worked out any better.

true, and our players really deserve shooting if they don't win the thing now. However, I have a whole lifetime of the disappointment of Arsenal messing up finals where they started faves, so I'm still pessimistic

 

[porno thieving gypsy]

There is no outcome which won't include tears!

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

that's funny, because i can remember fa cup wins in 1979, 93, 98, 2002, 2003, and 2005, as well as the league cup win in 1993, so they haven't done quite as bad as you suggest.

 

[strung out]

I know, it must be awful being an Arsenal fan and having to cope with all the disappointment and misery it entails

 

[strung out]

In the last 40 odd years - 5 league titles, 5 times league runners up, 6 FA cups, 2 league cups, a European trophy, twice runners up in Europe.

The disappointment must be hard to live with sometimes

MY TEAM HAS WON AN INSUFFICENT NUMBER OF TROPHIES WHILE HAVING QUALITY PLAYERS, FINANCIAL SECURITY, CHALLENGING EVERY SEASON AND A SHINY NEW GROUND #FirstDivisionProblems

 

[Gingerman]

Can't see a repeat of last year's result in tonights game but we have nothing to lose and the pressure is off to a certain extent,as long as we give a good account of ourselves........

Eh? The pressure is only off if you don't mind losing and leaving the Champions League?

I would hope they would fight like f**k if it was my team (which they never actually do and aren't even in the CL) theres always an outside chance, go for it.

 

[Supine]

I'm nervous. Hopefully this will be a classic match

 

[strung out]

I'm sure as long as they play some nice pretty football, don't hurt anyone and go out with honour, playing football the right way, Arsenal fans won't mind getting knocked out.

That's the Arsenal philosophy isn't it? Personally I preferred Arsenal when they were hard as nails and actually won stuff.

 

[mack]

I'll be hoping Arsenal score first and make a game of it...
