Week after week Ramsey scores stunning goals.

Such a clean striker of the ball.

Great to watch.

TBM Congratulations to Arsenal

The best team won. I don't remember Fabianski having a save to make until it was 3-2


I can think of at least two he had to make, only he didn't!

If Wenger had watched them lose it to two goals you might've expected their first choice keeper to prevent he'd have had egg on his face once again.

Bit of a shame for Curtis Davies, a pretty underrated player who I've always quite liked thanks to his 'pub player' honesty. At least he played his part. Likewise for Steve Bruce. He had a dodgy start to his managerial career with a couple of odd career choices but, generally, he's been a pretty successful manager and I'd like to see English managers like him have decent run at things.

Fabianski wasn't at fault for either goal.

Such a shame him and Bale are Welsh. For England's sake of course, but we're unlikely to ever see them at major international tournaments.

I didn't say he was. He's not as good a shot stopper as Szczesny though as so it's not beyond the realms to think their number one keeper might've got a finger tip to the first or done better than turnig the second away into the path of Davies.

Not keeper errors no, but just like any shot where the commentators say they're 'unstoppable' you see keepers pulling off unbelievable saves at times and the better keepers, like Szczesny, do it more often than the rest.

Happy for Arsenal...they needed that


Hardly a massive victory ................penalties v Wigwam and eventually an ET win against the massive 'ull City

Where were the big boys (the Manchesters/ the Livertons/the Chelseahotspurs etc) to put in that proper challenge?

They beat Liverpool (2nd) Everton (5th) and Spurs (6th) on their way to Wembley. That is very decent.

Really pleased to see Arsenal get that trophy, just a shame Liverpool didn't take the league and complete a double for 'real football'

ahem....agree.......hardly a massive victory "on the day" tho'

The last two games (the semi and the final) is where it gets traditionally "serious", with teams actually fielding winning contenders and all that

Nothing sub standard about the teams fielded for those games. Do you want a hand digging?

Wigan were the holders so deserve a little more respect !

Shame on Arsenal for picking such easy opponents..... You could pick apart every cup winner by looking at who they best, but the cup is a randomly drawn competition and all the winner can do is win each game.

Royal Rother Week after week Ramsey scores stunning goals.

Such a clean striker of the ball.

Great to watch.

He had about 15 shot yesterday though. Only one went on target. Rich man's Steve Sidwell.

He does manage to hit row Z with a fine mix of grace and power.

Ramsey's goal-scoring as a midfielder is fabulous

He was out injured for a fair bit but still managed 18 goals in 32 starts,
5 goals in 7 Champions League starts


Yeah, he's really crap
