*** FA Cup - Qtr Finals - 12th & 13th March 2011 ***

Every time a big game comes up Im always doubtful that we will win. We dont have any born winners in the team. No one with grit and determination. Apart from Wilshire, and why is that.....because he is English. He understands the tradition of putting on that shirt and playing every game at 100%. These foreign ****s dont have a clue....

I always feel sorry for arsenal fans. They are like the Andy Murray of football, always so close but can never wrap those competitions up. I've always thought that they are only a few quality players from banging trophies away, never quite understood why they haven't splashed the cash more, they've got decent enough funds haven't they?

Funds wise no one is really sure. We have a really bad sponsorship deal and we did make a ~£5m loss for the first 6 months of the year. We didn't sell anyone this summer. Wages wise we are third behind City and Chelsea I think. We need to ship the deadwood asap.

Aye, but will they constantly keep him if the fans want him out?
Yeah he is near the top but never actually winning the trophies in the crunch games.

do you really think they care what the fans think?

thats like banks and bankers caring what their customers think, the will care about the money first, fans second. any other guy in that job would be buying 20M+ players every season.

Oh , I didn't realise money was so bad at arsenal. Maybe then cashing in fabregas would be a good idea, swap one player for 2 or 3

The thing is, we've roughly been the same all the time in Wenger's era. It's just that those around us have gotten richer and we've tried to emulate them with a comparably smaller and smaller budget.

It's meant we were able to get to second in the league or and FA Cup, now it means we perennially get near second place now.

It's disappointing, and understandably fans are annoyed, but there's not much to be done about it unless we have an e.g. clean sweep of our squad at some point. How for example, are Denilson and Diaby on the pitch I don't know.

I've watch the latter this game, once again he's done absolutely nothing. Just stood around like a retard at a football game.
