Yes - but would they have got a draw at Blackburn on a cold Tuesday night in January ?

Every chance Wenger will rest plenty of players on Saturday and who gives a f*** anyway, it's just a cup game. I have never liked Arsenal and would love to beat them but it's just a fun day out in the grand scheme of things.

They lost 4-3 at Ewood Park last season. Mind you, they did win the return fixture 7-1!
That's how I see it. I'm more concerned about the League.
Arsenal are the second most inconsistent team in the country (after us). There is every chance they will smash us 6-0 and still every chance we will sneak a narrow win or draw. Both teams are so unpredictable, it's pretty much impossible to call. This game will have absolutely no bearing on Saturday, and I for one am certainly not worrying about it. We're expected to lose heavily, anything less than a huge defeat is a success.
JCL Alert!

Arsenal had over 40 attempts on goal but it was50%-50% possession ?

Yeah right. 25 years in the locker mate. A JCL would be creaming themselves over the prospect of Arsenal but true fans know games like this often overshadow the league which is what really matters.

Arsenal are possibly one of the most bi polar teams in the world. One week they will absolutely tear a team to pieces, the next they can't find a goal for love nor money. However, it is paramount that poyet and the team remember at all time that in that arsenal side there is the potential to turn even the best defence inside out extremely quickly. We have to be tight. If they get one, others could well follow very quickly.

Last realistic chance of silver wear & Bradford tell me that they won't rest plenty of players.I also f***ing hate arsenal but would swap a spanking on Saturday for a playoff spot.
If we are still in the game with 20 mins to go I will be happy
Yes, if not won

Arsenal won't rest loads of players as Wenger seems to be going for it in cup matches. I don't mind loosing to Arsenal but please, please, please not another hammering like we got at Anfield last season, but the way Walcott and Wiltshire are playing, I'm very nervous.
