Match Reaction - Arsenal v Money Shitty

[Syn]

Yep and we won't have to worry about being in 4 comps and bottling them come feb/march like last season.

Yeah, it's much less painful to be in no competitions.

While I don't think it's top priority, winning the Carling Cup was a priority as opposed to just giving youngsters playing time. We have to rest some players because you could see tiredness was affecting league results (a fresh Arsenal side would've beat Fulham on the weekend). I'm disappointed that we're out - the cup run last year was good fun. But I'm at least happy that we didn't roll over and competed very well.

Agree, its good to see diffrent teams play in the cc, and see the youngsters come along. The players wanted it you could see that, unile other seasons where going out the CC would not matter to Players/Manager.

But i suppose this season is a learing curve for most. lets hope they can man up and do Wigan on saturday.
