Arsenal 4-0 Wigan LIVE – Arsenal cruise into the FA Cup fifth round

“Yeah, him and Ben are the only doubts,” he said. “We have to wait and see in the next 48 hours how things develop.”

`”We made a lot of changes and some players needed some minutes. We started the game very, very well. We had some great actions collectively and individually. The first half made the difference.”

 “Very good. These are the games they can gain experience.

“It is what we need. We have some important players out at the moment and need to make sure they are in a good moment and ready to play and ready to compete.”

 “We recovered [from being 4-0 down], that was the main thing. They’ve got two teams really within their squad. We are a bit disappointed with the goals we conceded but to dig in like we did to stop that… I thought the players did excellent in the second half. In essence they gave everything they got.

“Arsenal were relentless. I am really pleased for the players as it has been a tough time. There have been positives and the players stuck together, that is the main thing.

“We take from this the spirit and we tried something at 4-0 down going to a back four and it worked. I think we have enough to stay up, that is the main thing.”

“I thank god for the goal and the win. That is my job – to try and help the team. When we win it is much better than when we draw like the other day.”

 “I think they have every right to be. We are working hard to try and deliver the type of ought to be with our performances right now. That is our main focus and I think it is exciting – but we need to carry on doing the right things every single day.”

“He was unbelievable today. He pulled all the strings from the middle and had a hand in all the goals. I’m really pleased for him.”

“Very pleased. We were very professional and had the right intent. Four goals and a clean sheet. Like you said, it can be tricky if you don’t apply yourselves properly, but that wasn’t the case with us today so we are really happy.”
