Have a good one grovers.

Pedro, the brum game would have been postponed. at first that sounds like fixture congestion but in reality now that we are out of the FA cup there are actually a few spare midweeks we could have fitted it into. hard to tell what effect that would have had on our title challenge.
ignoring all that I would prefer to be going to wembley, win or lose. just to be there and give our young players and the fans the experience is good, even if we lose. I agreed with others that I would much rather we had used strong teams for the CC semi than the FAC game at OT. I actually agreed more or less with wengers appraoach to the FA cup but not the Carling cup.
People blame the kids but I tell you our worst player in the CC game was Gilberto by a mile – hardly a kid. Though hoyte and Traore were also poor.
as we have seen a lot this season a lot of our strength comes from our full backs and our DM (Flamini).
Diarra COULD have played – he was still with us then and Clichy could have played too. Hoyte should never have played at centre back – if anything thats where Gilberto should have been! anyway, suffice to say I dont think wenger got it right that night.

As Steve said, bigger fish to fry, no point getting too distracted by a meaningless final what’s the point?!! It’s no different from playing in the Charity Shield!
