There has been a lot of debate among the Arsenal faithful over the last few weeks about what the FA
cup might mean to us and whether it would be enough to calm down the fans that have had to yet again see our team
get nowhere near the Premier League title or the Champions League
trophy.

trophies (unless we win the league because frankly who gives a twat about a fa
cup?).

Just hope Wenger
gets his top 4
trophy and hopefully an FA
cup trophy and leaves for good!
The FA
cup is a
trophy that we've won a lot recently and it practically saved Arsene's career here, so I think with the amount of players we've
got, we're likely to do well in the competition again as it is not the main priority of the other big teams.
Tell you what will happen «you may already know», we will go on a winning streak and we will retain our Wenger
trophy «top 4» and maybe we
get the FA
cup and then we have most of the fans back on Wenger's board and guess what Wenger will
get another 2 seasons contract... Sad but TRUE... I guess we need new fans with ambitions before a new manager...
Even worse for our under fire manager and his under pressure players, however, would be the failure to win the FA
cup trophy to give us Gooners at least something to celebrate, but unless things turn around pretty damn fast I can not see us even
getting to the final in May.
The Capital One
Cup is still a huge
trophy according to John Terry, and Chelsea are desperate to
get the win over Tottenham this weekend...
Arsenal fans will be hoping that the bookies have
got this one right, as the men whose job it is to predict the most likely outcomes have installed the Gunners as favourites to win the FA
cup again in May, retaining the
trophy that we won last year at Wembley to end the nine year wait for silverware.
Imagine the situation; you play brilliantly for a French club that never

Whats the fa
cup final
got to do with it.If hes
got to go he has to go, an i believe we won't win another major

cup final?
Neither and i do nt think joachim loew wilm come but hes about the only guy but why are we even having this conversation competimg for 8

cup year if we
get a new guy we will start horribly it will be a tough year of wenger we will put the forces behind him to have a successful year and i see it happenong qe will spend and we will succeed
His future at the club would come under even further scrutiny if the Gunners were to lose at Wembley, and although picking up the
trophy would still not be enough to convince the «Wenger Out» brigade that he is the man to be at the helm next season, FA
Cup glory would at least give the fans something to cheer and maybe an element of hope that things will
get better.
Let's be practical, if Wenger, other managers and the clubs were that bothered about players
getting enough recovery time, they could cut out these meaningless out of season «
trophies» such as the Emirates
Cup.
The Gunners can now only win a
trophy in the two minor competitions of the league
Cup and the Europa League, and we will need to
get a result at Chelsea on Wednesday to give us our best chance of all.

Jon
get out the rubber room your still complaining about winning

I really can not see us
getting rid of Wenger when he is doing so well, especially if the Gunners finish the season strongly and win the FA
cup trophy again.
Arsene Wenger and the players head south to face them on Saturday in the fourth round of the FA
cup and even though we are hoping that the next few rounds of matches in the Premier League sees us clos the gap on Chelsea to
get the title challenge well and truly back on track, we have to accept that the FA
cup is now the best chance of us winning a
trophy this season.
These young guns will only
get a chance to prove themselves at top level if and only if arsenal make massive signings that will give us a major
trophy... if we are for example leading the league in like seven points in February, then we can afford to give them some minutes on field but they wont
get game time on the current team cz the manager realizes that the club needs
trophies and hez running out of time so i even doubt he will use them in capital one
cup... Good luck boys
However, Gabriel must
get used to the demands very quickly as Arsenal aim to solidify second place in the Premier League and win their 12th FA
Cup trophy.
Well if we failed we won't have won a
trophy last season (FA
cup would be used to blood youngsters), we won't have players like Alexis and Ozil come into the club, and we definitely would not be able to keep players like Cazorla, Walcott and Ramsey because we would probably be playing Europa league (or even not been in Europe) and still have probably 5 more years to go in paying of the stadium because we are not
getting enough money into the club (no Champions league).
It looked like the Jack of old and if he really is
getting that old form back then Arsenal have just been handed a massive boost to our hopes of retaining the FA
Cup this year and winning the EPL
trophy the next.
January also sees us enter the FA
cup with hopefully a 4th round game after the 3rd round trip top Preston, so will the start of 2017 see our chances of a
trophy get stronger or fall away altogether do you think?
Let's just say we sacrificed 4th spot back then for FA
cup and Carling
cup, we probably would have won a few
trophies but I'm definitely sure we would not have made Champions league on a consistent basis which means it would have taken the club longer to pay of the stadium and also for us to be able to
get the likes of Alexis, Ozil and even Cazorla.
Can't wait for the League
cup and FA
cup to begin since we only
got the chance to hold that
trophy.
Arsene Wenger has been ridiculed many many times over his fixation of
getting Arsenal into the Top Four every year but failing to win any other
trophy for eight long years until last season's FA
Cup victory, but in a deep interview with the BBC he is proud of his achievements.

get around the fact that we should be doing better in Europe.
We played quite poorly against Sutton If we don't take the FA
Cup seriously, Mourinho will
get two
trophies this season whilst we will have no
trophies
Whether the manager wants a
trophy to sign off his ong reign with or whether he wants the FA
cup to convince the fans he should stay is something only the Frenchman knows, but at least his strong team selection today should ensure that we
get through this quarter - final to book our place at Wembley in the semis.
The board will just
get another puppet and will give him the same objectives: stay in top 4, make sure the cash is coming, and if you win an occasional FA
Cup trophy or whatever, that's just an added bonus.
I'm just glad he
got his hands on two
trophies with us (unlike RVP did with us) FA
Cup and Community Shield
emirates
cup has been cancelled where the hell we gonna
get a
trophy from now lol can they bring back the intertoto.
and you can't
get a more experienced one than the Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos, who in his ten years at the club has made won every possible
trophy including the World
Cup.
If United want to salvage something from this season with the FA
Cup and Champions League still possible
trophies along with second place in the Premier League, then Mourinho and the players together will have to find a solution to
get the best out of each other.
A lot of Arsenal fans would gladly take a bit of the
trophy success that Chelsea have enjoyed over the last decade or so, with Premier League titles, domestic
cups and both the Champions League and Europa League to celebrate, but I am not so sure about the way that their big spending billionaire owner Roman Abramovich
gets through managers.
The two FA
cup trophies hav been won without Giroud starting...
get real and smell the coffee instead of his ARSEnal.
I can't believe that you could lose the likes of Sanchez and Oxlade - Chamberlain for nothing, that's insane negligence.With 3 or 4 quality additions Arsenal could be serious contenders but Wenger's «4th place is a
trophy» mentality is happily shared by a board just wanting profits.Winning the
cup is great but Arsenal should be in the title mix right into May rather than the annual implosion come March.The old Fergie / Wenger title battles were the best back in the day, the fans deserve far more than you're
getting recently.
And then as usual, we will
get onboard once more for the wonderful adventure of the 4th place
trophy while we (the previously consecutive 2 time FA
cup winners) crash out in the Quarter - Finals.
It has
got to the level that the only
trophy we can imagine is fa
cup when some clubs will never take their eyes off champions league and their respective leagues, where is the improvement for 12 years?
did I asked for that... Didn't you
get me when I said we are 11 yrs without EPL title never mind the CL... what joy do you find in a drought... You know that FA are not up to the level of EPL and CL... Your Wenger use to play the kids in FA... and when he felt the pressure of going all these years without a single
trophy he started to play his first team in FA
cup to
get in the comfort zone that you are giving him now...
I personally think fans respect of wenger is at an all time low, we will do the usual be in the top 6/7 by jan, buy a panic buy,
get fourth and everyone's happy, there will be hundreds of rumours in the summer transfer window and we will be here again, until wenger leaves this is the cycle, we need to be aware players like Sanchez want to compete for
trophies, he wasn't extatic with just the FA
cup, if this carries on he will leave and I for one won't blame him.
That is disputable we were just in another
cup final its like you apparently do nt like
cup finals do nt like
trophys a big stadium he brought to us a top class training facility he brought to us im sorry he played a huge part in making the club a global giant and that our club success makes you angry and our new sponsor signing which emirates only endorsed with such big money since his success like if we
get a manager who loses consistently for 20 years you will apparently be happy give it one more year we have top four next year maybe even a title its a world
cup year any new manager would start outhorribly
The biggest question for Arsenal and us fans to consider once the current season is over and we know whether Arsenal
get a top four finish or an FA
cup trophy, is whether Arsene Wenger is going to stay or go, but that is likely to be announced pretty quickly.
Arsenal fans are always banging on about how Arsene Wenger can never
get his teams to win a
trophy, but this conveniently forgets that the Gunners are in the FA
Cup Final for the third time in four years, with two wins so far, and also two Community Shields as well.
I am fairly sure that a large percentage of Arsenal fans are finding it hard to
get enthused about the defence of the FA
cup trophy, because two points from the last three Premier League games has left the Gunners down in third place and our challenge for the Premier League title looking a lot less assured than it was a couple of weeks ago.
the league
cup is a fantastic breeding ground / step up (from the reserve leagues) for our youngsters to
get the big game experience, and show wenger they are ready to take a top spot in the first team, sooner than later the further they advance the more impressive they will look, and they
get a decent
trophy for all there efforts.
