Hear enough all of them have some interest. A few awkward Prem v lower league sides, Rogers v Swansea, test for Spurs and of course, Rags v Chelsea could be a bit of a laugh. Needless to say Sky are showing Reading v Arsenal, possibly one of the least interesting ties - should be a cracker then!

I might go for the Swindon v Villa game, it 's the nearest one to a giant killing that I can see.

Hahaahahaha Arsenal sucks. Koscielny is the prince of own goals (behind Richard dunne the king).

Until arsenal buys some defenders and a keeper they will always suck

Just turned it on, that's a surprise. Remember the days when we used to see Wenger's youngsters doing the biz in this cup?

I think Wenger's a bit distracted with all this Saville enquiry stuff going on at the moment.

Reading 4 Arse 0. To think I thought this was going to be a bore.

Walcott gets one back. Could be an interesting second half (that's given the game the kiss of death)

looks like I picked the right match to watch with the Arse game. Last I knew Leeds were 1 up at home to Southampton.

They're losing their reputation and teams are thinking they can get something now. Sell all their best players, now spending a little on less than top notch and forgetting their youngsters.

I'm not sure if it's Wenger but the club as a whole have taken this too far. They'll still get in the CL though, as proved by last season. Whether it be dodgy goalkeeping or an unconvincing decision from a ref, they'll be there.

Miss a second, miss a goal. 4-1 now.

How the hell Arsenal are getting away with some of this stuff is amazing me. Ref must be feeling sorry for them.
