Arsenal's reserves taken down a peg or two There is no point getting us all excited by thrashing
Sheffield United and Wigan if you are going to lose to Burnley. And Lukas Fabianski - one of the
stars of the young Gunners campaign thus far - handed the Clarets their opener by very kindly
pushing the [.
The draw for the semi-finals of the 2008/2009 Carling Cup have been announced. Current holders
Tottenham Hotspur will take on Burnley, while Manchester United faces Derby County. The semi-finals
will be a two leg affair. The first leg will be played on January 5th and the return leg on the
19th. So I guess it'll be an [.
If you took every professional team in English football and compiled an all-time league table that
calculated the number of points the clubs have earned since their existence, which teams would be
at the top? You may be surprised by the findings: Manchester United, 5559 points Liverpool, 5513
Arsenal, 5346 Wolverhampton Wanderers, 5137 Preston North End, 5105 Aston Villa, 5005 Sheffield
United, [.
For the Arsenal to lose 2-0 against Burnley may sound bizarre, but of course, one has to look at
the big picture and appreciate the effort and determination the young ones put into this season's
Carling Cup. I did agree with Wenger's policy to stick with the reserve side and maybe, just maybe,
the only [.
With the sweet memories of the win over Chelsea fading, the mid-week Carling Cup fixture is upon
us today. But before that, a few more thoughts from this past weekend. While it is a great result
indeed, Arsenal still has much to prove. This is the second win over a "big four" squad
this season, but that doesn't subtract the five losses that this team has already suffered - two
more than last season.
In a very entertaining and open first half, Burnley took full advantage of a Fabiansky mistake to
end the first half ahead at Turf Moor. The match started brightly for Arsenal and after just four
minutes, Nicklas Bendtner was through on goal but his shot was well saved by Jensen, who like
Wigan's Kirkland in the [.
Burnley made history yesterday when they managed to pull off a 2-0 victory over Arsenal in the 2008
Carling Cup Semi-Final's in London. After managing to beat Chelsea, another tough team, Burnley
have been this years Cinderella story. Read the complete article at TSN.ca Image: TSN Tags: ,

I fully understand that from what we saw so far, the Carling Cup was a good bite at silverware this
season, but remember, for Arsenal, it's just a prototype of what the regular side is supposed to be
in a season or two. Had we lost a match in which we were outplayed, outpaced and [...]

As we archive the Premiership with a Liverpool goalless draw at Anfield, the second in two weeks
after the one against Fulham, it's time for the young kids of Wenger. Having eased past Sheffield
United and Wigan Athletic at the Emirates, the young ones will be in action today away at Burnley.
Before going any [.
Burnley v Arsenal Full Article Burnley have a slight concern over Wade Elliott, who has had a groin
problem in recent weeks, ahead of their home tie against Arsenal in the Carling Cup. Christian
Kalvenes and Remco van der Schaaf are also doubts for the Clarets, who are enjoying an impressive
run. Wenger sticks with cup policy Full [.
Arsene Wenger confirms the line-up he hinted as Simpson is relegated on the bench with Bendtner
starting from the first minute. Randall shrugs off the injury and Paul Rodgers in for a chance to
shine. Burnley Burnley: Jensen, Duff, Carlisle, Caldwell, Jordan, Alexander, McCann, McDonald,
Eagles, Blake, Paterson.
