....and that's not necessarily a bad thing even if the press will probably try and make something huge out of it. However, I don't think many of us are going to lose too much sleep over it and it sure beats seeing those from up the road gloating over a victory. However, I haven't really seen the game so cannot say too much about the actual performance other that I hear that Bendtner needs to work on both his finishing and attitude.
What has been lost in all of this is that last night was the first time, under Arsene Wenger, that we've been beaten by a lower league side in any cup competition. Compare that record (and with us playing a mixture of reserves/youths in many games) to that of most Premier League sides and it's fairly impressive. Burnley wasn't the worst place to lose in that they play decent football and their manager, Owen Coyle, said some good things about us last year.
Anyway, the main thing is to attempt to forecast which team, whoever is playing, will actually turn up on Saturday against Wigan. I don't think that, at the moment, I have a clue what will happen and I guees we're all pretty much of that mind.
