Highlighted last week for example when Norwich cut us apart numerous times with both song and ramsey all over the shop.
If Odemwingie is out, that is a huge plus for The Arsenal. He and Brunt, who is definitely out, are really important players for WBA and Thomas always likes playing Arsenal.
I'd go for Walcott out wide 'cause Ridgwell is not the fastest so long as Walcott is not "saving" himself because of his hami or the Olympic Games.
This is our Cup final and we need to win.

Isn't that just a standard deflection?

I would have thought so... If that is disallowed a goal then surely the norwich one from last week would have to be too.
Would also like to see coquelin start alongside song, instead of Ramsey. But wenger will probably play coq at right back.
Found some stats.
Roy Hodgson has always lost his last PL game with each of the clubs he's managed: Blackburn, Fulham (4-0 @ AFC) & Liverpool.
West Brom have lost more home games than any side outside the bottom three.
The last time Arsenal won a trophy without the retiring Pat Rice at the club was 1953.
The last time West Brom kept a clean-sheet against Arsenal was in November 1985.
This will be Arsène Wenger's 600th Premier League game in charge of Arsenal.
Robin van Persie needs one goal to equal the record for Premier League goals in a 38-game season. He'd have 31 like Alan Shearer in 1995-96 and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2007-08.
Last time Atletico won EL,United finished 2nd,Arsenal 3rd,Spurs4th and LFC7th,Chelsea won FAcup and Bayern lost the CL final

Good, he's been bloody horrible for months. I would have preferred Diaby, but Coquelin it is to replace him. I think Diaby is out injured again anyway?
YOSSIIIIIIIII

First WBA goal was offside, and by the way he celebrated you could tell he knew it too
How can you defend a guy who is clearly offside.

Oh please.
Morrison ran past 3 players in midfield. The pass should never have gotten through in the first place.
Walcott on for Rosicky at the start of the 2nd half.

worse sub possible, chamack and ox to be the next 2 subs.
I agree the midfield defense was awful I thought you meant the defenders.
Strange sort of a game, but then again Arsenal are a strange sort of a club.
Wenger said in press conference that Szczesny hasnt trained for 5 weeks and needed pain killers for his shoulder today.
Wow, thank **** for that keeping display by the stand in. Crazy stuff but happy to collect the 3 goals and 3 points. Geez we made it tough for ourselves but hey this is arsenal and it summed up the season. Secured third place which was the key priority so am very happy with that. Now to seal RvP and nail a few more key signings
