The FA Cup Thread 2013/14

[Colly]

Just parked up and wondering why I've bothered, got a bad feeling about this one...

[Lineker]

Arsene Wenger refuses to ring too many changes to his side despite their position at the top of the Premier League after a Christmas schedule which he described as "horrendous". Lukasz Fabianski will start in goal, while Tomas Rosicky and Serge Gnabry come in for Mathieu Flamini and Lukas Podolski.

Arsenal starting XI: Fabianski, Sagna, Vermaelen, Koscielny, Monreal, Arteta, Wilshere, Rosicky, Cazorla, Gnabry, Walcott

Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood gives a full debut to 19-year-old Nabil Bentaleb. He comes in for Etienne Capoue in what is Spurs' only change from the side which won at Manchester United on New Year's Day.

Tottenham starting XI: Lloris; Walker, Chiriches, Dawson, Rose; Lennon, Bentaleb, Dembele, Eriksen; Adebayor, Soldado

[Jimmy]

Walcott vs. Dawson is gonna be, uh, interesting. Also Chiles just gets worse & worse, Chirches has been just fine this year.

[Baddar]

Wow. Adrian Chiles must have said 'errr' about a hundred times in his score roundup there. Useless prat.

Glad it wasn't just me who thought he was stumbling over every sentence.

[Summers]

Fuck off Paul Lambert.

[Chris2K]

Everyone shush, goalkeeping expert Andy Townsend is explaining to us what Hugo Lloris is doing wrong. Make sure you take notes.

[Summers]

You leave Townsend alone. He's great great.

The Orient Express was no match for the mighty Yeovil

*slow sarcastic clap*

Why are we always involved in cup shocks one way or the other? It's getting to the point where I'd rather we drew Chelsea than Halifax on the basis that it'd be an easier game

How was our 5-1 victory over you last year a shock?

That they scored

[9 to 5]

metalman is so in the right here.

[Matt]

It wasn't but I'd still prefer our chances of causing an upset to avoiding one.

[Kaney]

Cazorla!

[MDK]

Dembele is a prat

[Lineker]

Danny fucking Rose.

[GoGo Yubari]

Well there's Danny Rose's ON HIS TOTTENHAM DEBUT goal canceled out. That was awful.
