Danny Welbeck speaking to Match of the Day:
"It was very important we responded after the last game. We stuck to our morals, played our football and got a great victory at the end of the day."
"It's not something that happens by luck. We work hard during the week and today it's paid off. We got the goals on top of the performance and it's a great day for the club. It puts us in a great position and we want to push on."
"It is a tough one [for Arsenal to take]. I have a great affiliation with the club, I loved my time here and everyone's always given me a good reception when I've come back. But it's football and you have to remain professional and we've done that today."
"The season's not over yet. We want to finish strongly, as best as we can. The manager never lets us think we've done enough. We've improved again this year and want to keep improving, keep pushing on."

Now I've got a bet on the Bradford v Carlisle match!
As if I'll be able to concentrate!!

You can never knock a bit of spiteful retribution. Did you see Fartinelli's victim, Mitoma, giving Caicedo a warm handshake when they thought nobody was filming? Heartwarming.

Oh, and the best thing to cheer everyone even more tonight, is that that sc*m bag Piers Morgan must be crying into his martini tonight!

I'm sure I have, but I can't get a stream here and I usually sit like a zombie in front of the BBC text, hoping and paraying nothing bad happens. Today was just a step too far, so I ventured out to the garden doing utterly pointless things until it was all over....or in my case....a neighbour knocks on my door to see if I'm happy now....lol...!
No bed for me tonight. Every forum will be read, every scrap of TV will be watched.
Love this club so much...!
I wonder if Tony might decide it's worth . . . . actually I think that though warrants a thread.....hang on...

Well that was f***ing marvellous. Genuine euphoria here, I’ve opened a 3rd beer, which is roughly equivalent to a wealthier person opening the Chateau Lafite.
I feel slightly sorry that we’ve handed the petrodollar gang another title, but that’s collateral damage as far as I’m concerned. Well done lads, and wishing a speedy recovery to Enciso, who set us on our way.

Arteta lucked out massively on New Year’s Eve with no Caicedo or Mac A.
Thank you Karma gods.
Well we’ve certainly cheered up this lot, quite a bit of praise in there for our football and players too.

And we gave Millwall a good hiding in the second leg. Never forget the vile Millwall supporters throwing bananas at Eric Young. Thank heavens things have improved for the better.Tore a decent team apart in the same way we destroyed Millwall in the play-offs first leg 4-1 in May '91 at the Goldstone.
I cannot think of a better and more important thrashing than that since in a HUGE game when I was a little boy going with my dad, also on a Sunday and it got better and better and better!!!!
On the other hand, Brighton fans are famous for never leaving before the 90th minute.

Welbeck was once again outstanding. There is NO repeat NO better striker in the world on his day, Danny is world class. Finds space, links up well, passes well and causes panic in the opponents defence.

And now the bad news. Yet again a season comes to an end and we have to give the Man City reserves a guard of honour on to the pitch.
Let's hope it's sewn up by next week and they rest the stars, although I'd like to see Haaland play.

We were 1-0 up away to a team fighting for the Premier League title and we took off a holding midfielder for a striker.
And it worked.
It worked.
