Well done City - you deserved that.
Arteta - hang your head in shame. Playing 2nd best keeper, not attacking, not making changes like Pep did after 10 mins. Go find your backbone and stop bottling big games and decisions.
Pathetic attempt at trying to win a trophy. Rubbish football and no tactics. I’m embarrassed by you and your pathetic decisions. No decent strikers - Kai, Jesus and Vil are poor.
So looking forward to today despite how we’ve played in last 15 or so games.
Time wasting from 1st minute - we are Arsenal, not Spurs! Pathetic boss. That’s why I give you stick as it’s boring, backwards, sideways, awful football and you keep making weak decisions…
Rant over and sorry but the boss is a bottle job even if he wins the league. Embarrassing set of strikers and lack of options.
Terrible finish from Kai in first 10 mins.
Terrible keeper blooper.
Terrible tactics and ambition.
Sorry again - gutted but shouldn’t be surprised by the boss.

Gutted, but then I looked at the spuds result and that made me smile. Next game please.
22 Mar 2026 14:18:11
Kepa; Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Hincapie; Zubimendi, Rice; Saka, Eze, Trossard; Havertz
Or Raya and Viktor?
I’d okay Raya and Vik in starting 11, as Kai probably marginally more cutting edge off the bench with a tired back 4 to run at after Vik working them hard.

It’s the eve of the first proper cup final. I hope and pray we the Arsenal are victorious and lift the first bit of silverware. I also understand it’s Manchester City standing in our way. This really is a 50/50 game, City on their day are a tuff nut to crack, just as we are on our day. As a fan of our great club… all I want us to do is give it our all, and what will be will be… Don’t forget us fans really can be the 12th man tomorrow. It’s about getting behind the lads, making the most noise, singing loud and proud.
Let’s help try make the difference and to taste victory. And if we don’t taste victory tomorrow, we must sing louder and prouder as the 12th man for the rest of the season, get behind Mikel and the lads and show them love and support to go again… because they are and we are (us lot the fans) are all part of the Arsenal family and families stick together through thick and thin.

Great post, Gabi. 😊
100% commitment is all I ask from our boys, and I'm sure they will deliver that...
Can't wait for this afternoon, what a day to be a gooner! 🏆 ⚽️ 🌟 🤩

Hi Sal. Hope all's good. Yes, as long as everyone connected to our great club gives their all. It's all we can do. Really looking forward to it.. Come on you Gunners / Victory Through Harmony. 🔴⚪️❤️

Arsenal have been playing twice a week almost every week now. We've done well to stay in the cups and it's of course exciting to still be in contention to win as many as four trophies.
But I have to confess, this amount of football is a bit too much for me. These are exciting games and I usually watch them with great attention. I usually need a few hours afterwards to cool off and even then might not sleep as well as normally.
Then there's the issue of squad management, fatigue and player welfare. I have always thought that the fixture congestion is a problem clubs should be able to solve by building larger squads (like we did last summer) in order to cope. But bigger squads and constant rotation have a negative impact on the quality of the game (wasn't considering this until Adam Cleary talked about it on his YouTube channel) .
I would also like to see some other matches but feel like Arsenal is more than filling my football appetite right now. 😅
I think this schedule is here to stay since more matches means more money. But personally I would welcome a drastic reduction in matches with open arms. I would happily scrap League Cup for prem teams, reduce Premier League to 18 or even 16 teams and reduce Champions League league phase to 5 or 6 games.
Arsenal playing only once a week would probably mean I would savour every corner kick and throw in even more :) and who knows maybe the open play football would be better as well.
Less is more for me. Anyone else feeling the same?

Well said, mate, it's just too much. You see players like Rice and Timber just stretched to their absolute limit over a period of a few months. then there's no break. Straight into the next cup game, straight into the World Cup, etc.
I want to see our best players lining up, ready to play their best every week. You just don't see it anymore. I think FIFA has really cocked it up, and the players should strike.
22 Mar 2026 13:36:45
Players are played until they break down. Do we really want to see that? I'd rather give the teams proper time to work on their fitness, skills, and team play. And then, like you say, Wire, give us a proper football show where you can be at your absolute best.
