Arsenal v Aston Villa F.A. Cup 4th Round Match Thread

[Dave Cooper please]

Just in from work.
Was it as smash and grab as it sounded on t'radio?

Bloody fantastic!

Ireland has had a quiet game but that was a fantastic pass to bent, who did what Bent does best.

From praying we would get in still 1 up to dancing around celebrating a second, you gotta love football.

Alan Green was quite scathing about Darren Bent on R5, referring to him as a very expensive and ineffective luxury or words to that effect.

Bell end of the highest order.   Not interested if its not red

I'm not sure what a bell end is but I am sure that Alan Green is one.

I think you'll find you have one!

[mrfuse]

If we play it right we could get even more goals!  I dont think I could have been more wrong about the Keane signing

First from a corner, second a great counter attack!

[eamonn]

That first half couldn't have gone better. I don't think we'll keep a clean sheet though, we rarely do even when we win. A shame that neither Albrighton or Zoggy are on the bench as we could kill the game off with their ability on the break.

Henry scored a hat-trick, including a last minute winner after we led 2-0 at Highbury nine or ten years ago so I'm not going to break out the champers just yet.

Really?
Well I'm not explaining, but yep he certainly is and a smelly one at that

A bit but we were genuinely skillful for both our goals and Arsenal haven't really hurt us for all their possession.

That was a really terrific pass from Gabby to Petrov in the build up to the second.

Think it looks better than it was Petrov was in a perfect position for me. All 3 passes in the build up were great you could see everything fall in perfeclty . Can't belive sky bet just got 1/2 odds for a villa win! Gutted I didn't put it on @ 9/2 before hand!

[mrfuse]

I text my sister to say bet we cant hold on until halftime...queue Villa counter attack

[Dave Cooper please]

Ooh, just seem Bent's goal, what a finish that was.

[toplad4u]

Emirates looks half empty second half!

[Lizz]

Good off the line clearance there.

[Ryu]

two massive contributions from Ireland either side of half time.

[PaulWinch again]

Fucking hell off the line.
