I was at the game today and the atmosphere was brilliant The fans got behind the team and made a lot of noise. As for singing chants about your rivals Cosmo you can't tell me that if the boot was on the other foot today "Are you watching Manchester" wouldn't have been belted out at Anfield! Anderson had a blinder today as did Nani. To be honest if I was playing against him I'd want to kick him up in the air but that can only be good for us. Hopefully other teams will have seen that Arsenal can't play when you get in amongst them and someone will do a job for us in between now and the next game at OT.
That was true last year but this year we have been decimating teams tryign to do that 
The Arsenal midfield has certainly matured a lot since last year. I think the difference yesterday was that we were able to play 5 in midfield when Arsenal had the ball but they were fit enough to break and support Rooney making it 3 up front when we had it. Park and Nani ran their legs off yesterday.

I was impressed by Park yesterday...he was dangerous....something I would never have said before!
I still can't understand what we were doing...Fabregas wasn't even in the game....did anyone else notice Gallas and Rooney having a chat and a laught during the game, when we were 3-0 down....what was that about....

Fabregas wasn't allowed in the game 
After his fantastic start to the season he has dropped off a lot, i know he had an injury at bit back, but his form seems to have dropped a lot too

I would agree that his form has tailed off the last few weeks other than that I thunk its more adebayor eclipsing him as hes still been cracking... hes been injured for the last month or ill and so not been at his best tbh

Wenger on heavy defeats in the Cups...
"At the moment it is unbelievable. When we lose in the cup we get a hiding. We don't concede in the League but when we do concede we do it well!"
Wenger on the League fixture at OT in April...
"You will see us in a different shape when we come back and I hope the pitch will be in different shape aswell."

I think if we take any lead to San Siro we will go through.
Its going to be interesting how we react after yesterday. We will probably either rip AC apart or fall to bits.......I pray its the former.
