Nah, i think it's just a momentum shift, Arsenal are coming back cos they have to. Hullk will still try and play football, cos they kow if they just sit back and try to hold on they probably will come undone.

Speaking of Jimmy fucking Bullard ... He was the architect of my most favorite recent goal celebration: when he impersonated Phil Brown.
 
It's probably in the all time top ten celebrations. Up there with Gazza's dentist chair celebration for originality.

The broadcasting tandem of Gus Johnson and Eric Wynalda is embarrassingly bad. Is it possible for someone to have played a sport professionally and still know very little about that sport? Because that's Wynalda in a shitty nutshell.
 
Yeah, Gus has his issues but Wynalda is not helping him out at all.  In fact I think Wynalda is the worse one of the pair.  They are painful.

Oh that's right, it's literally impossible to tell the difference between a team you love and a team you hate from the content of your posts. My bad for forgetting.

Absolutely. He changed the complexion of the game entirely.

Still, Ramsey was immense in extra time and fully deserved to score the winner.

Wenger: "We gave a demonstration about how to respond being 2-0 down, and a demonstration on how not to start an FA Cup final!"

Still buzzing from this.
-Ridiculous start, so it was crucial to get one in before halftime.
-If the Gunners had lost, Gibbs may have never lived down missing that open net when it was 2-2.
-When Giroud hit the crossbar in extra time, I had Bruins flashbacks from last week.

Go you Arsenal. Make some signings this summer and build on this for next year.

The pundits after the match were talking about Ozil not celebrating with the rest of the lads on the pitch with the cup. He was on his todd in the changing rooms. Maybe he's just a naturally miserable git.

Happy for Arsenal, great club, great tradition. I can see Wenger picking up at least one more Carling Cup and maybe another third place finish, and maybe a Champion's League quarter final before he finally retires and lets someone more 'with it' take the helm and keep this great financial institution thriving as he has done so well and for so long. Banks have come and gone, but strong and proud, solvent and profitable Arsenal endure. Who can deny them this moment, this proud moment. I really hope Arsenal stuff city in the Community Shield...show em what they're made of. Great for Sagna to win something with Arsenal before he hangs his boots for the last time in the home changing rooms at the Emirates, and shuffles off this mortal soil, to the grey havens of the Etihad. He goes there a winner and with our blessings. He'll let his new City team mates know what winning an FA Cup is all about and I know he's looking forward to reuniting with Nasri, those two love a good game of ping-pong. Anyway congrats to the Arsenal, for a selling club to win trophies these days, it's no mean feat.

Ozil looked pretty happy at the parade today.
 
 
 
The title on the 13-14 Chelsea thread should probably be updated posthumously...just for the sake of accuracy.

Once it is locked, only a dope can edit it. 
 
Good luck convincing Zomp or URI to do it.
 
EDIT: Congrats, I guess. But worrying about the thread title is kinda why it existed in the first place. Y'all are touchy. This neutral is bummed that Alex Bruce had to go off injured. Arsenal was simply too strong and deep and talented to not win.
