There are no positives, negatives or okays... It is a CL game and you have to win it if you want to access the next stage and
possibly win the biggest trophy in club football (this is not the fa cup).
If we lose this weekend we could drop down to fourth place in the table and
possibly nine points behind Premier League leaders Chelsea, and if we really want to stamp our claim for this season's
big trophy, then we should be going all out for the
win.
i'll be honest, i'll be gutted if we go out tonight.when you look at the teams left in the carling cup only man utd & villa
possibly stand in our way from
winning it.i honestly reckon that if it was an arsenal v man utd final every single arsenal fan would be up for it, i know i would.the good thing is as well the carling cup final is in feb and
winning it could give huge confidence to the squad especially if we are in contention for the other
trophies.the
biggest thing that worries me is injuries to key players, but imagine arsenal parading the cup at wembley and every one of those players having a winners medal on their sideboard, the team's belief would be an all - time high.while i agree with you that the 3 other
trophies are more important, but don't you think it was great to hear wenger being positive.i thought it sent out a message of intent and belief although we all know it's difficult
winning one
trophy besides 4.
