Looks like i gave villa too much credit.

sherwood deserves credit for keeping villa up when they looked in freefall, but they've finished the season poorly and were abysmal today. big test for him next season; little to suggest he's anything more than a firefighter so far.

Ffs, this could have been us if it wasn't for that @#%&! Valencia.

Would have been quality seeing Big Louis at Wembley. El Tigre's farewell, Argentina flags and Wazzoh lifting his first trophy as captain.

Did Villa actually manage a shot on target?

Doesn't matter they were beaten by a far better team. Shame it wasn't the dippers for Stevie Gs birthday as the result would have been the same

didn't hear why arsenal went without a striker, but just shows how well it can work and what exciting football it can lead to

makes doggedly sticking with a rigid lone striker even if he hardly gets a kick and you're creating less chances than the worst teams in the league seem a bit of an odd philosophy tbh

Tbf, Arsenal started the game with two strikers.

You obviously haven't grasped the difference between a striker and a centre-forward.

sorry precious, didn't intend to shatter your illusions

btw, in case you didn't notice when LVG actually did try and switch it around - di maria through, or even fellaini through - the critics were on his back in a flash. sounds like you were one of them :shakehead:

Which goal won in the end? Giggsy's? I switched off at full time, sick of gooners tbh

About time we had a proper go at this £#%&!ing cup again

Ask your mum to put some ointment on it.

Apparently it was Van Gaal's fault.

Not enough sideways passes.

Open top bus for an FA Cup win ffs

Rightly so

It was standard practice back in the day to have a parade after winning something

Pisses me off we didn't have one parade between 99 and 2011

Tended not after title wins but no parade after 2008......:shakehead:
