2. Yeah..wow.. Chelski finally won something
Of course after choking in the CL the last 2 years, the FA Cup is small consolation.

5. Yeah, you are right. That is why all those EPL teams try to win it, because it means nothing.

6. If you remember
Sir Alex Ferguson put out a substantially weakened side full of reserves for the FA Cup semi against Everton... otherwise Abramovich's bought side likely would have been playing MU. I know Arsenal plays their youngsters throughout the FA Cup rounds...very few first teamers until they reached the semis.

For the big four, the FA Cup has lost it's luster..it ranks a very poor third behind the EPL and CL...I know the Russian expects more for the amount of money he has spent.
