Fabio Capello isn't the only former England manager looking for a new gig. Sven-Goran Eriksson, out of work since he was sacked by Leicester in October, decided to join the many others offering their services for the Leeds job recently vacated by Simon Grayson. But Leeds chairman and cantankerous owl Ken Bates, was less than receptive to his offer.

A week is a long time in football. Seven days ago we were preparing for a league game against Manchester United, a game from which we hoped to get points, primarily, and restore some confidence after a couple of miserable results previously. Clearly that worked out well.

We've spent the last week poring over that game, the incidents, the manager's decision making and everything else.

First we had the Galaxy's Landon Donovan going back to Everton on loan and then the NYRB's Thierry Henry returned to Arsenal, where he promptly scored the winner in their FA Cup tie against Leeds.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not starting any protests to demand he be removed from my club. (As I've long been saying - changing managers on a regular basis is not going to get us anywhere.) But I am rapidly losing patience with him.

United preview – a game of huge importance

Morning all,

and let's start with some good news, for a change. Word is Thomas Vermaelen could be in line to play against United later on. He trained with the first team yesterday and assuming all went well it means he'll start the game at left back. It'll certainly add some solidity to a back four which could really do with it at the moment, but we ought not to forget that our defensive issues aren't simply the domain of that group of players.

Before I launch into not writing the preview of a game that is barely 8 hours away at the time this is published, I'd like to say What the whaaaaat?

The purple is to make sure the extent of shock is clear. The girl is incidental. Really.

It was ok when Henry lumbered on against Leeds (don't get all self-righteous-Arsenal fan on me now, you know he looked slower.

Leeds and Ipswich share a lot in their histories: Huge success in the past has brought respect to both teams but the difficult financial times that followed have seen them slip down the league tables in recent decades.

Thierry Henry went from hero to villain in just a matter of days when, following his amazing match winner against Leeds in the FA Cup, he remonstrated with an Arsenal fan to come onto the pitch after the game to have a word with the Frenchman.

Arsenal lost the match 3-2 with Swansea playing some excellent passing football, much in the same style as Arsenal, but won the game following a loose pass from Henry.

Hopefully our bloggers will come out from behind the sofa and remember the positives of this season so far, but don't let that stop you commenting on where we go from here.

The saddest part of this weekend wasn't so much another defeat, another goalless performance, another bamboozling post-match interview with Steve Cotterill, another game of mindless hoofball. I can even begin to acclimatise to the lack of effort the team seem to put in (which is depressing), but similar to the Leeds game it's the fact that Southampton didn't really have to try [.

Right then,

Swansea away today and a chance to keep pace/claw back some points on those above us in the table. The importance of the game can't be understated. The FA Cup game against Leeds provided us a fantastic moment and a talking point/feel-good factor that lasted all week, but at the same time seemed a bit surreal.

What an incredibly frustrating week not to be able to blog. Henry's return in the cup against Leeds, a dour affair until he emerged from the bench, was settled by three sublime touches a delicious through ball from Song, an immaculate piece of control, and a trademark cool finish to take the man to 227 goals for Arsenal and send thousands of Gooners into a mad bouncing frenzy.

Why, top of the morning to you, and you, and you with the crooked nose as well. May a squadron of Twix bars find their way into your mouth by day's end, and may time go by as smoothly as Thierry's first touch. The day has gone by that smoothly in fact; exploding capacitors and leaking transformers having taken up so much of my time that this review is sinfully late (A word of caution- never put the positive pin of the capacitor into the negative pin of the battery, unless you want the electronic equivalent of the Vietnam War in your face)

The FA Cup game against Leeds can broadly be divided into two storylines playing out in parallel- a feel-good fairytale with returning Kings, and a tragicomedy about knights whose swords have been replaced by rubber ducks.

Morning all.

The dust has settled somewhat after Thierry's permasmile-inducing return against Leeds the other night, and such was the joy at the goal it's only now that I'm taking in the fact it's knocked Leeds out of the cup too. I do enjoy knocking Leeds out of the cup.

Now, however, we have to turn our attention back to the Premier League.

Such a poor match between Arsenal and Leeds in the 3rd round of the FA Cup last night... that is of course until Thierry Henry came on as a sub late in the game before scoring a great goal with just his 4th or 5th touch of the ball. A nice through-ball found Henry who had an excellent first touch then instant finish, placing the ball past the Leeds keeper in the far corner of the net.

And not just any goal, but an Henry goal. Song played in a brilliant through ball that split the two covering defenders, Henry took one touch to control the ball, and himself, and then he curled right into the corner of the net away from the keeper's despairing dive.

From the outside looking in, everything seems to be fine in Gunner land. King Henry comes back to save the day with a late winner against Leeds in a 1-0 victory and Arsenal hosts Aston Villa in the next round of the FA Cup.

However, after reading between the lines, I wasn't too thrilled with Arsene Wenger's pre-game "motivational speech" to the fans, players, owners, and sponsors.
