I didn’t have that much of a problem with Arsene rotating the squad for this game. I would have liked Ramsey to have to have started ahead of Diaby because i don’t rate him one bit. I was surprised Podolski was left out considering he didn’t play against sunderland but apart from that i
Whatever hurdles we may face today, we are favourites for a place in this years quarter finals, there is no complacency in that statement merely an observation based on the positions the two teams find themselves in at present. But as we have been already reminded this season, a gap in leagues does not guarantee victory, ask Bradford City. I must say though, I am very relived
