WEMBLEY CALLING



The FA Cup Semi-final is upon us with Chelsea facing their north London rival Tottenham Hotspur at newly Wembely stadium on Saturday, while the The Gunners (Arsenal) will come guns blazing as they face the noisy neighbors Manchester City on Sunday, in what will be a mouth watering encounter that cannot be missed.

Chelsea and Spurs are in the race for the title with the Blues  leading the chase with 4 points, their rivalry is taken to the next level as they will battle it out in the famous old trophy semi finals. Chelsea is buoyed to come out as victors in this encounter to book their place in the finals as they are eyeing for a cup double this season.

Elsewhere Arsene Wenger's future at Arsenal is in tatters as the fans are frustrated with the team's recent performance. After  suffering an embarrassing  Champions League hammering by the Germany giants Bayern Munich and the chance for a top four spot looks unlikely the Arsenal fans have been calling for Arsene Wenger to resign as the club manager as they protest week in week out during matches.

However Arsene has dismissed that winning the FA cup will decide his future at Arsenal, Arsene said: "It doesn't play any part in that. "The FA Cup is a very important game for me because its the next game and because its an opportunity, as i told you, to win a trophy this season. So of course we are fully focused on that. My Future is Sunday.

A Stuttering Europa Win for Arsenal, As Spurs Slumber

 By Richard C. Banda Arsenal took more than half an hour to test Dundalk goalkeeper Gary Rogers in a 3-0 win at the Emirates on Thursday night Europa League group stage encounter. Eddie Nketiah, Joe Willock and Nicolas Pepe found the back of the net for the Gunners in what proved to be an unconvincing win for Mikel Arteta’s side. Reiss Nelson’s corner kick gave Eddie Nketiah a brilliant chance to step in the box and stamp a simple tap-in from a close range, before Willock put Arsenal on the driving seat with a 2-0 victory before the break. Nicolas Pepe buried the game with a stunning strike to put the Gunners on a firing front. Even though Arsenal found the back of the net three time. Their perfomacne was not really convincing considering the number of shots they had on goal and how they dominated possession. Player ratings Arsenal:  Runarsson (6), Cedric (6), Mustafi (6), Xhaka (6), Kolasinac (7), Maitland-Niles (5), Willock (8), Elneny (6), Pepe (7), Nketiah (6), N...
