Absolute garbage finish to the season. Very very very worried about the cup final.

Don't worry I'll be back in Sydney for the FA Cup, clearly I'm the curse :lol:
First game I've been to we lose 1-0 at home to Swansea, second game we draw 0-0 at home to Sunderland, and now I've got the last game at home against West Bromwich. If we fail to win, let alone score then I am left with no other option then to think I was the curse and will be glad to come back to Sydney and watch us beat Villa in the FA Cup Final.
Overall I'm worried too. We are not doing anything upfront and really struggle when other teams park the bus.


Tonight wasn't as bad as Swansea, at least tonight it was more about how good Pantilimon was and not how shit our finishing was. As usual a keeper goes super saiyan against us.

At least the Cup final I don't think Villa be as anywhere near as defensive as that and definitely won't park the bus, or I hope they won't.

Tbf people are taking that seriously because the guy who started the story is the same one who first broke the story about us buying Alexis.

So we have an actual dilemma as to who we start upfront tomorrow. I think it should be Walcott, with Giroud coming off the bench. If Giroud had been in form lately it might be a harder decision but just think with his loss of form and the threat Theo poses to a defence he's the better option. I think Villa would rather face Giroud upfront as well

It would be if Giroud was in form at the moment, but he's not at all. In a game like this he can probably make a bigger difference of the bench anyway, like he did in last years final.

Winningest team in FA Cup history. Arsene himself has won more FA Cups than Everton and Man City and more than West Ham, Leeds and Sunderland combined.

Just watched the game again. Doesn't match the feeling of winning last year for obvious reasons, but fucking hell it was good to be up 3-0 after 60 odd mins and just be able to enjoy it.

:lol: so apparently when the bus got to Islington town hall someone gave Szczesny a mic and he asked the crowd "Does anyone have a lighter?"

Another fun fact, since this FA Cup, the actual cup, is only 2 years old we are the only club to have lifted it.

As soon as Jack got the mic I think everyone knew what was coming, mainly because he did exactly the same thing last year :lol:
