I had a feeling it was going them

gooner

I don’t care a lot who we got. to me the most important thing is city drew Chelsea so if we focus on our tie we will have pool and either city or Chelsea in addition to united and spurs out of our way. come on you Gooners

Bolarinwa Mayowa

My favourite tie, can smell another 2:0 already

Swaggooon!

Don’t jinx the matter guv…

A to the HA

Liverpool at home ? Been there , done that .

2013-2014 = 2003-2004

Where is Luis Suarez? Is he not playing?

Ah i see, in Koscielny’s pocket already!

Witoldo

We can certainly beat them, especially at home, but it’s an unkind draw due to our fixture pile-up. Sets up this sequence of fixtures:

Liverpool (A)
Man Utd (H)
Liverpool (H)
Bayern (H)

I don’t even want to imagine an FA Cup replay.

Gooni

They are all winnable games though. Hope we come through that standing tall. I reckon March will be the hardest, Bayern, Spurs and Chelsea away, followed by City at home..

WhatHappened

Oh!please did u just list The Cunts under our tough fixture…Dont you ever insults our standard.

Yoyo Sanogoals

*Sigh” looks like Koscienly’s gonna need a bigger pocket for SAS now looool

GunnerDareMACEDONIA

maybe the other pocket ? I assume last time he put them in the right and the left has lots of place for them.

The man who would be bling

You don’t need to LOL. We do that (or not, depending if it’s funny). Did your mother never tell you it’s lame to laugh at your own joke?

Gunner From Another Mother

I rather enjoy making myself laugh. I do it all the time!

The man who would be bling

Good answer…fair enough!

UGooner

Once you get in Koscielny’s pocket he never lets you out!

Strevs

Tough, but we are at home. Beaten them once, can do it again.

rochester

SAS are so comfortable in Koscienly’s pocket that I expect them to crawl right in like a couple of baby kangaroos

Gooneron

Spirit of the FA Cup. Fantastic!

UnusualArse

Had barely finished laughing at the ManCity Chelsea draw… Hate Townsend…

Özil's Eyes on Arsene's Hot Thighs

The same here, my guffaw ended as soon as it had begun! “FA Cup Fifth Round draw pairs Man City with Chelsea”……Ha! My dream come true!!…..scrolled down and then, “Manchester City will face Chelsea while Arsenal meet Liverpool in The FA Cup”. then I re-read it and actually wished I was dreaming. I’m pretty confident we’ll see them off at home though.

Liverpool, MU, Liverpool, Bayern

Bayern, Cunts, Chelsea, MC

that should be fun

Bayern, Cunts, Chelsea, MC, Everton.

Even better.

Basically…

…cunts, cunts, cunts, cunts, cunts, cunts, cunts, cunts…

non-flying dutchman

When push comes to shove – i do hope Arsene prioritises this fixture over the Bayarn one… will not be happy to see him rest key players when this bit of silverware is so much more achieveable

non-flying dutchman

those giving the thumbs down – all i’m effectively saying is we dont rest Giroud for this fixture… so much strength in depth in all other parts of the pitch that im confident whoever plays will get the job done…. plus I have every confidence in TGSTEL against the European Champions

Runcorn Gooner

The phrase “When the going gets tough,the tough get going” springs to mind.
I think our squad with its current mindset can handle this array of fixtures.

neutral

based on the last run of difficult fixtures?

jack jack jack

We’ve got the depth in midfield to deal with it barring a load of injuries. Everyone will certainly be getting games, Rosicky can come in, Ramsey and Wilshere can swap around, as can Flamini and Arteta. Gnabry, the Ox and Bendtner will be getting plenty of minutes as well. I’m mainly worried about Mertesacker though. If we lose him to injury we’re in serious trouble.

dgaj

Cunts, Cunts, Cunts, Cunts…. Cunts… Double or Triple.

dutchgooner

fucking hell but bring it on!

Mesut Aussie

or I’m gonna stab some cunts!

Gooneron

With a spoon?

Comedian

Oh for fuck sake. Signings needed. Call 999.

Beagleboy

Thats what desperate/drunken ManU fans do!

Comedian

Yeah heard him. Always knew there were more of plastic and google Manu fans than the real ones.

non-flying dutchman

999…funny – I hate that manure fans are going to make out that the top four playing each other is a result for them. You got to be in it to win it you past-glory hunters

wengerbot

got a man utd lamp, looks great in the middle of the table. man utd brought out new tea bags but they wont stay in the cup. remember Liverpool played Toulouse, well utd play Toulouse all the time. my prediction for the Liverpool game will be 2-0 to us, one goal conceded in our last ten home games tells its own story.COYG

TV5

Delighted with the home draw, even better with one of City or Chelsea going out. No reason why we can’t put them away like we did earlier in the season.

Arsene nose

Nice draw… just worried about the timing tho.. COYG!

percyofgod

Then we are in the last 8!!!

Bobby the beast

Who did sp*rs get?

Martin

Man United I think 😉

Gooneron

2 \/ 0

gooner odst

To be fair Liverpool are probably dreading the tie more so than us but having no Euro responsibilities gives them a 1 up. is it before or after the Bayern game?

Gargoyle

Between the ManU and Bayern games, which are a week apart.

KC

Before Bayern, but after Man Utd on the Wednesday prior.

Gulp.

gooner odst

… Arsene, do something!!!

SingaporeGooner

Before I could stop smiling after City drew Liverpool, we drew Liverpool. This is fucking tasty

Gooneron

Which draw was that?

Swedegunner

Plenty of Liverpool to go around I see

Silent Stan's Content Mustache

Let the mug smashing begin.

Bev

Has to be said we are definitely capable of seeing off Liverpool, then it’s a reasonably easy route to the final if we miss City/Chelski. COYG.

Özil Gummidge

Let’s hope it is played on the Saturday.

non-flying dutchman

not much of a muchness really. it will be 3 days away from either Manure or Bayarn. I anticipate it will be the Sunday afternoon game since city play CL on the Tuesday so their game against Chelsea will likely be the Saturday 17.30 fixture

Umayr

We beat them once we’ll beat them again.

Coyg

Swedegunner

All my friends are mugsmashers. Gonna be amazing to beat them two weekends in a row

Witoldo

Ever consider getting new friends?

Stevie boy

Yeah bring on the bin-dippers

Balotellitubbies

Feels like a semi-final draw. GOYG!

Arsepedant

Yes, it’s almost like there are away and home legs.

Gunner pundit

I really have this arsenal squad can ein the premier league and fa cup this season. Years ago i used to think to myself if arsenal just get a title they could possibly go on a little run. Trophies are like buses you wait for one for a while then two come at once

Manchester Gooner

Problem is, you can only get on one or the other.

Bring in the Drax man and send him on the second one! Come on, Arsene. Just do it.

Arty's Art

He is injured for three months…

I hope he signs he but signing him won’t make the slightest bit of difference for these fixtures.

James

He started training this week so that is wrong

Jesus wept

Complaints about no big ties in the last round. Four biggest teams pulled out early to play each other. Who’d have guessed?

sol

Well liverpool gave it a good try but i guess they have gotten to the end of the road as far as the FA is concerned, but hey now they can focus on making sure they dont let that pussy van cunt of a player and his team make 4th

Heroldgoon

Yes better get a tougher opponent now and be done with it though given we are the Arsenal we’ll probably draw Chelsea in quaters and so on and forth.

Tough February but a tougher Arsenal! bring it on!

Gooneron

2 0

Gunner pundit

* have a feeling, ein=win

Liam

Would like us to get 2 players now we got a big month coming up which will make or break are season!! What harm would it do? CB and CF

Fatgooner

Shit draw. With the likes of Charlton and Brighton still in it we get this tough one. But at least we are at home. If we get through then an easy quarter-final is probable, with either City or Chelsea going out.

I fancy us against Liverpool’s dodgy defence.

GK

That’s right between playing Man U at home on Wednesday Feb 12 and Bayern at home on Wednesday Feb 19. It’s going to be quite a week.

Heroldgoon

Simply need to invest in a player or two, need more bodies for this hectic 2 months!

Liverpool (a)
Man U (h)
Liverpool (h)
Bayern (h)
S’land (h)
Stoke (a)
Swansea (h)
Bayern (a)
Spurs (a)
Chelsea (a)
Man City (h)
Everton (a)

Comedian

Game by game.

Gummo

looking at those fixtures, it just seems crazy not to bring in another striker when we have the chance. Giroud can’t do it all on his own!

deano

It is tough group of fixtures which in the last couple of seasons we probably wouldn’t have done very well in. This years team seams to be made of pretty stern stuff though and I fancy us to do very well and should see the bin dippers off in the cup.

Pakistan Arsenal!

Bad luck liverpool. They will lose to Arsenal twice in one week. 😀 #Coyg

Infidel Castro

Liverpool (away) Manchester United, Liverpool and Munich all at home over the space of 11 days. Mourinho was spot on, surely something not right about our fixtures list… Someone desperate to hand us a trophy this year. *RollsEyes*

godonner

Lovely handy one

Rummy

Woo 4 day weekend!

Riyan

Not sure if that was a Fifth Round Draw or a Semi-Final Draw!

non-flying dutchman

complacency has been the killer for us in this competition in the recent past so this is something of a treat

Rectum_Spectrum

Welcome to the business end of the season boys.

OneCannon

Wenger smells trophys this season just like us lot…..drax is close but for some reason I dont think buying a striker is an issue for him….maybe its because its so frikin hard to get a great 1 in january…..these coming months will define our season……C’mon to fuck lets do this shit….whoop.

MC

Wonder who we’ll get in the quarter finals?! 😉

Costa Gooner

Arteta/Wilshere kick goofy up in the air early doors job done

Aks Arsenal

Let the Games Begin…..
Arsene To Brendon Rodgers – ” Your Punishment must be more Severe”.

jybz

Gazidis position in the fa paying off 🙂 the home games couldnt have come at a better time #COYG

Witoldo

Home games are nice for Gazidis. Extra revenue for the club.

American Gooner

Mertescienly’s pockets are gonna be full after this one….COYG!!!

Puff puff

More excited about sellshit vs man shitty:-)

london

I don’t understand why fans of other teams would have any interest in what is written on an Arsenal blog. I for one don’t give a damn what other teams are doing, I don’t even watch them on MOTD, and even more so I sure as hell don’t care what other teams’ fans think…

Gooner Dave

An easier fixture list just got easier!

Come On Arsenal!!!!!

Duby

We should be able to bring out three livers out of their pool this time around. 3 – 0

The only Olivier is Giroud

Haven’t felt this excited to support the Arsenal in a while… for the first time we’re urging our guys to gun for silverware, instead if having those shitty “well at least our League position is still ok after our draw against Stoke…” sort of months after bombing out of everything. I say roll on Ramsey, Arteta, The Ox (who’s very recently back) and Poldi to help carry the burden on the guys who’ve gotten us through the new year. It’s a party of LANS at the Grove!

the man who would be bling

…and we will meet them.
