Tonight’s FA Cup game with Man Utd could be season defining for both sides, but the clubs have a big history in this competition, and what better way to prepare than look back at some of the great meetings between them from the distant past.
1 – That time they won.
2 – That time Arsenal won.
3 – That time there was a draw and a replay and one of them won in the end.
4 – That time they won.
5 – That time Arsenal won in the final.
Those were the days, eh? We are literally moist with anticipation having relived those moments so vividly thanks to a revolutionary list-based article.
God bless you, Internet.

Can’t beat 1979 for a Cup Final, perfect match, dodgy few minutes, perfect finish (made better because of the dodgy few minutes). Though 1971 was fantastic too.

Here’s to another one.
You missed the match which Arsenal won
No. 2 in that list.
Unless you’re thinking of a different one.
No the one where the ref was a cunt and yet we still won
“the one where the ref was a cunt”.
That applies to every game that every PL team has ever played against them!
They are the PL refs sponsored team.
Still infinitely better than BuzzFeed.
You missed the time when Arsenal won
Oh man, I remember that time we won. Those were the days…
And oh man, I was really looking forward to some photos with Rooney at the beach. Way to spoil the fun 🙁
I’ve got a picture of a beached whale, nearly the same thing! except the whale’s better to look at!
Here is one, http://wide-wallpapers.net/wp-content/uploads/walls/thumbs/Shrek-and-Fiona-on-the-Beach-600×450.jpg, now go out and play!
We have no reason to be afraid of them fuckers. If Swansea can do it twice, so can we.
Come on you Gunners.
Mk Dons did it! We need to emulate their guts and determination
One of those wins v manu was a double from overmars it was a pts win but the cup record is a tie between arsenal fc and manu, it would be nice to beat them at trafford coyg and in prem league table
Brilliant.
Sterling click bait, Bloggs! For Gunnerdom and a steady increase in visitor figures 😉
COYG!
The anticipation is killing me…!
Regardless of the fact that it wasn’t really an article, I can’t figure out why I clicked on the Wayne Rooney beach photos link.
morbid Curiosity ?
Yeah, sure. Let’s go with that.
I cant get excited about this game
we are going to beat our selfs again.
I dont mind if we dont win cup I just dont want to get knocked out by these cunts
Best article article anyone has written about anything in the history of everything….
This game can really set the tone for the rest of the year. We outplayed earlier in the year but wound up with a negative result. Beating them today will break down another wall. Then we beat Chelsea at home and the year will be a big step to set us up for next year. “Triple Crown!
lies
What happened to the panda???
2005 final, 1979 final, 2003 fifth round…
forgot 1988 fifth round…
I knew it!
I think Blogs wrote this artcile with a little bit the handbrake on
Off topic and apologies for that but which is the best pub to go to tonight near Old Trafford ?
Away fans can usually be found at the cricket ground a couple of blocks from Old Toilet.
Sounds like the title of a spuds DVD.
The one with Arsenal fans in it lol
