    Ridiculous. The same play we've tried and failed at like three games running. RVP taps it off for Vermaelen, giving the defender enough time to close distance and block or deflect the FK. Again. WTF are we doing out there?

    Ramsey heads a corner wide. Well set up but the finish wasn't there.

    AMAZING attempt at goal, Henry flicks on to RVP for the volley, nearly in. Wow, close.

    Song fouls Ibra to prevent the counter, yellow card.

    Volley falls short for RVP. His opportunities have been few and far between.

    Szczesny picks the right side but there is too much pace on the ball, 4-nil, disaster.

    I tuned in right about the time Rosicky sliced his volley so bad it went out for a throw in, instead of a Goal Kick. Smh

    Great first goal by KPB, not much anyone could have done to stop it.

    Thought Ibra was offside for the second, but it was close enough not to complain about.

    Penalty definitely wasn't there. Should have been an indirect free kick for obstruction.

    Well that's our UCL campaign over, but we achieved my target (qualify for the knockout stages).

    Now to focus everything we've got on getting 4th, I don't care about anything else.

    Yeah so I guess we're doing this again tomorrow.

    Wenger says we have nothing to lose and with few players to pick from and no game until Monday, you have to figure we will field a strong team and hope for the best.

    There is always risk of injury so conceding even one goal could lead to some of our starting eleven being pulled.

    With almost none of our midfield available we're likely to run out a 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 tonight. Rosicky is a game-time decision. Robin Van Persie will start.

    Arsenal: Szczesny - Sagna - Koscielny - Vermaelen - Gibbs - Song - Rosicky - Walcott - Gervinho - van Persie - Oxlade-Chamberlain

    Otherwise known as the strongest team we can field given our injury situation. Kudos to AW for not giving up on the cup.

    Milan have two backup keepers on their bench today. Kind of like double-bagging, I guess. Better safe than sorry.

    Unreal. Could barely ask for more in the first half. Arsenal on fire, Milan in shambles, incredible match.

    Goals from Koscielny, Rosicky, and Van Persie (he scores when he wants) put us up 3 at the half, on a complete rampage, having only looked vulnerable for about five seconds of the first 46 minutes. The Grove is absolutely rocking. Sets up for an epic second half.

    Easy to say that Milan's defense look lazy as hell (terrible passing and clearing especially, several dead to rights giveaways have only resulted in one goal but could be three), but Arsenal are ****ing those ****s right in their ****s.
