Wigan beat the "best team ever"

Post by Nos89 »

A remarkable result in the FA cup. Wasn't like city had the kids out. They defended like legends. Hope it affects them for Sunday's cup final.
Hopefully, Aguero gets banned for taking a swing at a Wigan fan on the pitch afterwards. Pep gets touchline ban for kicking off at the ref at HT in the tunnel. City are there for the taking on Sunday.

Would not surprise me one iota if we beat City. Would still make them favourites but not by a massive margin.

Looking at the last year or so this is absolutely the sort of game which we have won despite all common sense pointing otherwise.

Are you serious? I hate modern football and a lot of modern players but Aguero should have smashed his fucking head in. That's what that fan deserved. Fucking northerners invading the pitch :roll:

I detest these small time clubs and their fans that only turn up for the big occasions - who then act like they're the lifeblood of the game. Hope Wigan get kicked out the FA Cup for failing to control their fans. :roll:

City at their worst are just a carbon copy of us - they pass the ball around a lot, have all the possession but very little end product.
Last year's semi-final was actually like watching Arsenal play Arsenal.

I would imagine they are still favourites for the final however it wouldn't surprise me if we beat them like last year.

Totally agree with Clash about Aguero and Wigan fan.

Serious to the point of him not playing against us on Sunday.
Any other time supporters running on the pitch should get twatted Brian Clough style.

The worst result for Arsenal tbh, City will be more up for this game than had they won against Wigan.

Unless they are watching a screening of the FA cup final, then it's ok ofc. Or running on the pitch after we won the littlewoods cup semi final in 1988.

Liverpool lost 2-1 at home to Wimbledon a week before losing to us in the 87 league cup final

We had a team with balls in those days, not forgetting the famous back 4 was starting to take shape. What have we got this weekend?

I agree. Citeh should beat us comfortably.... but then the chav should have too in May and we totally outclassed and out fought them on the day. I still make Citeh favourites but this is exactly the kind of game where Wenger so often gets a result.
