Wenger full of Praise for Rosicky

"He was wonderful. A player we all love. If you love football, you love Rosicky. On top of that he’s a fantastic character, scored and I’m very pleased for him." The manager was full of praise for the little Mozart and he should be. The 34 year old was the star of the FA cup show down with Brighton.

You would think that the Czech was 24 let alone 10 years older. The spring in his step is something to be admired for all players. At his age he is showing no signs of slowing down. Rosicky showed a real captains performance with an assist and a goal. Leading by example he provided the zip that Brighton just couldn't handle. The 3-2 score line made the game on paper seem a much closer affair, but if you had watched the game you would have seen that Arsenal were in complete control.

With the results from Saturday, with Man City, Chelsea, Southampton and SP#@s all fell out as Arsenal now will fancy their chances of retaining the cup.
