Last night was easily a bigger upset. A league 2 team against a Premiership team? I know the atmosphere around Arsenal is depressing and negative but we've not declined to the status of a league 2 team.
However the final hurt a lot more because we weren't expecting it whilst tonight was a continuation of a bad few months and obviously losing a final is always worse.

I really hope we're getting a striker and a defensive midfielder, also maybe then Zaha from Palace too. I don't give a flying toss about Walcott either, inconsistent run of form and like Nasri before him he chooses to suddenly apply himself when his contract is nearing an end. Fed up with it. We have Chamberlain and maybe then Zaha so we don't need Walcott at £100,000 a week. Utterly absurd. Wenger is right not to let him use the club as another platform to move onto more money elsewhere.
It also bothers me their constant excuses. Last season he didn't want to discuss it because he wanted to see if we're in the Champions League, then he didn't want to discuss it because he wanted to play up front, now he doesn't want t discuss it because he isn't playing. We know damn well why you don't want to discuss it, because the club isn't offering £100,000. That's normal, we would all want to be paid more, just admit it.
