After horrific defeat received at the hands of Everton in the premier league, Arsenal will look to bounce back in the FA Cup against Wigan Athletic.
Gunners as per usual have injury and fitness but still have a better squad than Wigan and there can be no excuses if they fail to win this game.
The outcry of supporters against the club and Wenger will reach optimum level if they lose out on the FA Cup as well after ruining their title charge.
As far as team news is concerned, Wenger has given team update but is certainly does not look very good.
Ozil and Koscileny are still out and it will take a few more days before the duo will return for training.
Ramsey is fit and will definitely start the game as claimed by Arsene Wenger. On the other hand, Fabianski will also start in place of under fire Szczesny.
The most important news us regarding the trio, Rosicky, Chamberlain and Gibbs who have 50/50 chance of featuring against Wigan.
“I cannot give you concrete team news because we have so many uncertainties about Chamberlain (groin), Gibbs (ankle), Rosicky (thigh). There will be last-minute decisions on those three players. They are all 50:50.”
Diaby and Wilshere will take a week or two more to be fit for action. No mentions for Podolski and Cazorla which means the duo are all set to face Wigan and might start.
Whether or not Giroud will start as the lone striker, we shall see.

Atleast for striking, play Sanogo instead of Giroud who has no skills to score, en also has fail to give pressure to defenders
If you asked me I would say let those who are psychologically ready for the game play. My selection would be, Lucas Fabianski (GK), B. Sagna, Per. Mertasacker, Thomas Vermaelen, Genkinson (or Gibbs if passed fit), Kim Kallstrom, Aaron Ramsey, Tomas Rosicky, Santiago Cazorla, Oxlade Chamballen and Lucas Podolski (up front). This selection will beat Wigan 3 zero. I would have loved Szczesny on goal because he is ready for this trophy but that would be a disrespect to Fabianski who has done fabianstically so far. I have absolute faith in this selection and can’t but wait for that trophy. COYG! Let’s do it, yes we can!
I want to see Kalstrom play in the match.
I just want bould to manage the team on that day because I f….ng hate arsene and his ways he doesn’t contribute any thing to the team he is the saboteur of our team he is not worth the new contract 7.5ml? Why are we paying him this much for nothing to show of in 9 years other managers would have quit themselves he is not ashamed at all
Play poldi upfront.It shall be ars3-wig1 insh’Allah.
Give Sanogo Achance To Start Am Fedup Of Giroud’s Lack Of Ambition Upfront. No Favouritism For F/ball. A Failure Sh’d Be Benched 4ever.
Give Sanogo Achance To Start Am Fedup Of Giroud’s Lack Of Ambition Upfront. No Favouritism For F/ball. A Failure Sh’d Be Benched 4ever. Competition Is Key For Success.
I honestly cant understand what makes wenger trust giroud in goal,no fighting spirit,even clear cut chances he cant utilise,yu will only see him hovering around. Wenger should jaz leave the club. He has failed.
Always Giroud ? is it because he is French ?
