It's important to make sure we win our next two home games (don't care about the FA cup, if we have to rest players and risk getting knocked out by Southampton so be it)....and potentially put ourselves in a situation where we are only 5 or 6 points behind Chelsea going to Stamford Bridge

If by some miracle we don't get our arses handed to us in that game, 5-6 points behind Chelsea by mid February makes us competitive.

Now of course there are the way things should be done and the way Wenger does them
So you want to throw the FA cup on the possibility that we will get our act together and that Chelsea will have enough John Terry slips (a statistical anomaly from the point of view of teams top at Christmas) to throw it away?

What I don't understand is.....if people are so convinced we will don't have what it takes each season to actually win the league why don't we care about the league cup and ready to forfeit the FA CUP for merely feigning a challenge at the league....
