Where Were Kolo and Emmanuel?

Le Boss has revealed why Toure and Eboue did not feature in Saturday's FA Cup clash against Cardiff...

“I could not play them today,” said Wenger, speaking after the victory at Highbury.

“At nine o’clock this morning in the team meeting, they were in the squad, in the team.

“I pulled them out at 11.30am. They [Ivorian national team management] are sitting in a hotel waiting for their players.”

We asked the Ivorian FA to allow Toure and Eboue to play against Cardiff before joining up with their national team-mates, but our request was blown out.

“We just wanted the players to go tonight instead of going last night and play today. It was turned down,” said Wenger.

“They travel on Monday to the United Arab Emirates for a training camp."

AW also explained that the Club had asked FIFA to help out and offer a solution but were instead warned the match may be awarded to Cardiff, if the duo were not released on time...!

Bastards!

Oh well, 2-1 to the Arsenal!

Oh yeah - before I forget...I have to admit that I was jumping for joy last night as I watched Leicester knock the shitbags from down the road out of the FA Cup.

Absolutely fucking superb!!!

Won't be long before they're back where they belong in the league....somewhere below us!!!

UP THE GUNNERS!!!
