Starting to change my mind about this cup having watched the players' reactions after the pen shootout. If it means that much to them and gives them a taste of actually achieving something then fine, that's a good thing.

Watching Sanogo on the highlights, maybe I was a bit hard on him. He's got something but it's so raw. Regardless, we definitely shouldn't be in a position where we have to field a player who is essentially a novice.

Looking at the stats, Wigan really didn't do much at all. We dominated in every area. 63% possession and 28 shots to their 8, apparently. So toothless up top though. Otherwise we would have slaughtered them.
All this nonsense about celebrating things that aren't considered worth celebrating is snobby nonsense for me. Someone like Keane would criticise our players for celebrating with the trophy if we win it. I couldn't care if the players got together and celebrated Arteta winning on the pub fruit machine it shows solidarity and it shows they care.
