Wenger: 'We were united, determined and disciplined'
Liverpool 1-3 Arsenal
FA Cup Round 3
Anfield
Sat, Jan 6, 2007, 5.15pm
on an exciting Cup tie...
"We had a united, determined, disciplined and well-organised performance. In the first half we reduced to them to very few chances apart from crosses and in the game they didn't create many chances. In the first half every time we came out we scored and that of course made it difficult for them. In the second half we were under pressure and when they came back to 2-1 I was worried because we had heavy legs and they got a little bit more spark. They could have come back to 2-2 but Thierry killed the game off with the goal for 3-1."
on the atmosphere at Anfield...
"In the end I must say Liverpool have given everything and I must say the crowd was absolutely fabulous. You can only admire what the crowd did today, they played every ball for 90 minutes. They have great support here."
on Thierry Henry's goal and freshness...
".It was a great goal, a great run. He is getting his legs back and that's quite needed for a football player. You know that Thierry can do that and the fact he has worked very hard means he can do it in the last 10 minutes. I think the break has benefited him because to play this kind of game, to fight for every ball and to suffer up front you have to be fresh mentally as well. He was in the Final of the Champions League and the World Cup and we are not machines you know. Sometimes you have to be refreshed a little bit."
on whether this result will influence the Carling Cup tie...
"The result will give us a mental strength. We will come back with a different team but we want to win the game."
on the end of Tomas Rosicky's goal drought...
"It was playing on his mind that he didn't score and he was worried but tonight the first ball he touches gets into the net. It shows how much it is a relief because scoring the first gave him the confidence to score the second."
Man u - YOU"re next, boy...YOU'RE NEXT!

not only larsson's goal... he assisted in both goals...
those who said united is struggling is blind after all...
look at chelsea.. win macclesfield 6-1... BUT with an outfield player as their keeper..

Abou Diaby returns for Carling Cup trip to Liverpool
Liverpool v Arsenal
Carling Cup Q/F
Anfield
Tue, Jan 9, 2007, 7.45pm
Abou Diaby is back in the Arsenal squad for Tuesday's Carling Cup tie at Liverpool.
The French midfielder has not played since suffering a fractured and dislocated ankle at Sunderland last May but he completed his first full training session on Thursday and is in contention for a welcome return at Anfield.
Diaby's recovery is the latest in a long line of promising injury news. As Arsène Wenger explained on Monday afternoon, Freddie Ljungberg (hamstring) is currently the only player without a chance of featuring in Saturday's Premiership game at Ewood Park.
"We have Diaby in the squad for the first time and Emmanuel Adebayor is very strongly coming back. Blackburn is possible for him," said Wenger.
"Lauren is not in the squad for Liverpool, he has a small toe injury. William Gallas will not play either. But basically the only real injury is Ljungberg, he needs one more week after Blackburn.
"That is why I said for a long time that I won't buy anyone [in the transfer window]. I knew I had enough players when they came back from injury."

fgl old dude, there's no need to keep repeating that Man Utd's next to fall to ARSEnal. It just shows that you have no confidence in ARSEnal beating Man Utd hence the repetition of your point

Jan 20 - Man U ...YOU'RE NEXT !
