    Fabregas out of the final along with Walcott.

    Cesc's hammy isn't a big deal; they probably want to rest him for Barca.

    Van Persie, Kos, and Diaby are available.

    Wish we had Ramsey full fit for this. Nasri or Wilshire will be our driving force for this game. Lets just hope we don't pick up any injuries that will hurt us against Barca. besides I would happily trade a CL cup for a Carling cup. Hope we score a quick 2-0 and then sub out our key players. RVP is the one that worries me the most and ya'll know why.

    Wenger has said he will play through Wilshere for this match. Expect to see him in more attacking positions. Looking forward to this!

    To be fair I don't remember a point in the game where I thought we were playing well enough to win.

    Consistency is still not one of our qualities.

    Full credit to BC who could've had four goals this game. They played like they wanted to win--we played like we wanted to get through it.

    Hopefully Van Persie is just sore and not damaged.

    Bottlers, Bottlers, Bottlers. We had them against the ropes in the final minutes and Rosicky just wasted clear chances, don't ever want to see him ever wear the team's shirt again, Retire please. Szechesny fellow let us down today big time. Can't say I'm surprised, this squad just doesn't seem to have the determination to close out games, we prefer to play beautiful footy than collecting trophies, argggh it was just a mickey mouse cup anyways.

    How about wenger invest in a good defender and Goalkeeper, not some unpredictable players who have a solid game and then next game turn to shit.

    Just for today, its okay to slag off our beloved bottling club. Would have been embarrasing to be lifting and celebrating that miniature cup for a big club like ours, it fits the brum better.

    I still love you Arsenal but you're on the sofa tonight. I need my space. Make-up sex tomorrow. Promise.
