Fa cup third round can be against an opponent from the same division? I thought they had modified the draw so that can’t happen…

The FA Cup draw from round 3 on is completely open, anyone can draw anyone.

Gunners 1-0

After a humiliating and embarrassing start to the season Arse have really turned things around results wise. They aren’t actually that far behind the contenders now if they win this.

I would love to see Sunderland get through. Not great odds, but would be great.

[Pizy 18,539]

Leicester look like they’re still in bed. Zero effort at all.

Yeah!!! That 3 games or whatever it was loss way way behind them..shame! Know games to play and all but they're level with 4th and 5 behind us. Even if we win 8 behind isn't bad considering

With Leicester looking this shit and Liverpool calling off the dogs in the last 20 minutes last week against Man United, Tottenham might look like world beaters later today.

[Pizy 18,539]

No European football should help them stay fresh as well. Playing like they have been recently I’d be worried if I were Man United. 

[Tomo 21,741]

This is Arsenal all over, stringing a few performances together when the pressure is lower.

[Atomiswave 6,072]

Bloody LC, I wish we could game them now.
