Trying to remember the rules - but shouldn’t the third be offside? I thought I’d the ball is played forward behind the keeper there has to be two defenders playing you onside?
Arsenal virtually playing a full strength team.
You're in three comps
Not when the player on the end of the pass is behind the ball.
I mean.. we have 5 starting players out, but okay.
Besides, why wouldn't we play a strong side? We're not in Europe so no reason not to.
I am surprised that Pepe and Saka are both starting though, thought one would be rested for Balogun to start up top.
They need to. Got to get a good result for confidence. WBA priorities are promotion, yet again.
Yeah, need to try & get a victory or the knives will be truly out, & like you say to help get some sort of confidence.
To give youth/fringe players some experience. Same reason you never used to play strong sides in this competition under Wenger.
Yeah I was just surprised with the number of first framers there.
4-0
Saka
Saka
Credit to arsenal for getting the job done, but this is a $10 million vs $230 million squad
Back when we had a deeper squad ye.
Right now the only players who could play that aren't are: AMN, Nelson, Balogun.
Everyone else is injured, has covid, or is about to leave. There's a couple others like Azeez maybe who could play.
I am surprised that AMN and Balogun didn't play over Kolasinac and Saka though.
Arsenal with confidence. Maybe they will beat City.
Newport County are getting a bit of a thrashing.
Was that Ty in the crowd? 
He’s always in the crowd.Was that Ty in the crowd?
Hattrick for Auba. 0-5.
Arsenal club shop must have missed him over lockdown.
5-0
Aubameyang hatrick
Aubameyang hatrick
So Auba isn't finished, he just needs to play at championship level.
Or his team mates not to!
Pepe
Now Lacazette. 0-6.
Very unlucky Pepe, second time hitting the post...
Arsenal's celebrations
Well, against the academy of a Championship side.
6-0
Laca
That was some cringe

Pep is not ready for us.
They must have heard that Southampton have score seven.

Pity the fans at the Newcastle v. Burnley game. Eighteen chances for Newcastle. Three on target.
Given Ole's luck in cup draws it'll be a Manchester derby.
Might have more chance if it is one game. It is two legs he seems to have trouble with.
Feck it, this is a pointless trophy and I'd rather lose to them now than do all the hard work just to fall at the semis.
Southampton have got 8.
No. Knock them out now, otherwise they might as well call it the Manchester City Cup.
