FA Cup Semi Final: Wigan vs Arsenal, ITV1, 17:07

Ulysses Gaze

Great penalty!

Moneymaker

Cool as ice.

Will I Amnt

Held his nerve, that couldn't have been easy.

Arsenal are within 30 mins of a shocking season.

Where in God's name are we gonna get two goals from?

greendom

30 mins to save the season

Fabianski should've saved it, would've if he hadn't stuttered through his dive.



Do any Arsenal fans fancy us to get back into it? I'm struggling to see it happen.

klose

Bloody good peno that!

Only just back in time to switch the game on right before the penalty. Much happen in the game before hand. Commentators made is seem Arsenal weren't exactly dominating.

Hangballlouie

Still expect Arsenal to win here.

if we don't get back into this, I wouldn't like to see what the fan's reaction will be. Not going to be very happy.

Been a snooze fest.

We are one nil down in a semi final against a championship team and I'm not one bit shocked or surprised

TimeToShine

Game over IMO, I would love it if I was proven wrong.

The collapse by Arsenal this season has been alarming. It's less stark than at Man United but yet seems like it'll be tougher to fix

What Arsenal have you been watching for the past four months.

It's clear as day even to a neutral like me there is something fundamentally wrong at the very core of that club.

What can be done about it? I have no idea. But there's something very wrong.

Alfred Borden

Poisonous attitude in this team, bunch of bottlers.

tayto lover

Podolski is very poor.

bad2dabone

I just can't watch.

Can Wenger bring on Giroud already!

bad2dabone

I just can't watch.

Very difficult to see how that gets fixed either. Harder problem to fix than just not being good enough

TimeToShine

4-4-2?

At least he's trying something different for once.

Im a big fan of wenger but it must be stemming down from the management. Different team from the Birmingham game, same result so far

There seems to be no plan, just passing the ball around for the first 60 minutes...

maybe scoring one goal but two, nah don't see it sadly. Wigan will stick 10 men back now. He takes off Pod for Giroud and the fans booing that decision.

Podolski off? If you were going to take a forward off, why not Sanogo?

I think Arsenal collapsed some time around 2006 and haven't recovered since. It's hard to believe when we saw the invincibles of 03/04 that a decade later scraping 4th place would be considered a success.

Has there ever been an FA Cup final between 2 teams not in the top division? A long way to go in this obviously, and Hull favs tomorrow, but a real chance at the minute.

The "tactics" from Arsenal really are just ludicrous. Perfect example earlier when Arsenal passed it around the back from 5 minutes before lobbing a long ball forward. The pass missed and Wigan countered and despite the ball never leaving Arsenal's half they had committed 5 players forward. Yet when they do go forward it'll be rare to have 4 options. It's simply incredible that it's still happening after all these years.

20 minutes left against a championship team, you'd still have to expect a result.

If you don't, it's probably time to pull the plug on wenger tbh.

Ulysses Gaze

If they lost today, would Wenger tender his resignation do you think?

**** off Giroud with your ****ing flicks.

TimeToShine

Vintage Giroud

He could not hit a barn door.

There's gonna be a meltdown in nineteen minutes

Sergio

20 minutes for Wenger to save his Job!

Alfred Borden

Giroud, useless is too kind of a word

tayto lover

We need someone on with a bit of pace who can get in behind the Wigan defence. This is all too easy for them.

no one on the bench

spiralism

20 minutes left and i don't see it in Arsenal at all tbh, very very poor.

Looper007

Wenger looks like a man on his last life really, No way if Arsenal lose this he be given a another contract.

Incredible how often Sanogo looks favorite to get to the ball and doesn't.

Alfred Borden

If we lose here i dont think there is any way back for wenger

mike65

I have David Attenboroughs voice in my head when the camera tracks Wenger prowling back and forth.

Grayditch

Some vital challenge, there.

WTF does Sanogo do in training?!

He's soooooo brutal right now.

Take him off, bring on Akpom

Sanogo isn't exactly prolific himself, either. I just think Podolski gives you a little more if you're putting Giroud up top.
