The FA don't sell the FA Cup abroad so no streams, radio only

It's region locked to the UK so you'll need something like Tunnel Bear to get it working

1-0 at the moment. Soldado won a penalty, and Townsend converted it.

DubPerryman

67% possession and 7 shots compared to Leicester's 1. We seem fairly on top and creating chances.

There we go

Handy cup this year for arsenal

mass_debater

FFS, typical Spurs, go out of Cup the same day City and Chelsea do

Dave11

That's shocking. Please please get someone new to give Harry a hand!

jobeenfitz

Its a game we would expect to win at home but its not really a big suprise considering the amount of changes. Spurs have played a lot of games and we really only have one Striker in form. We cant expect Kane to be doing it in 3 cups and the league.

lol, nothing surprises me anymore with this ****in club... agggggghhhh

That's what you get for not playing our world class keeper

Really disappointing.
Why didn't lloris play?
Anyway...

On the one hand, really feicing annoying to be knocked out, on the other, will free up some weekends for us during a busy time if we progress in the Europa. Hopefully a kick up the hole for the players before Wednesday.

positivenote

poor result, but to be honest not to bothered by it. Id rather lose today than in the league or on wednesday. Resting players today will serve us well for the semi-final and hopefully we'll have a day out at wembley.
true the results today have opened up possibilities of arsenal doing well in it, but to be honest I couldn't care less about them. roll on wednesday

SuprSi

Just saw the highlights. Vorm was unbelievable in the first half with a couple of brilliant saves, though should have been sent off. He then makes a crazy error at the end that hands them the game. I still think he's a class keeper though.

DubPerryman

As soon as I saw the starting team I thought we would struggle to get much out of the game.

Chiriches, Kaboul and Rose are all liabilities in the back.

Paulinho couldnt have been match fit and Lamela is just back from injury.

We're fortunate that Chelsea and City went out too, our defeat sailed under the radar. Arsenal could go far in the tournament..... so that, along with the CL, could stretch their squad in the run - hopefully they get a few replays too.

To say I'm not too concerned with yesterday's lost is an understatement.

If we get through Wednesday (and I think we will) yesterday will be forgotten. But putting Wednesday to one side for a minute and concentrating one yesterday. It was a shocking performance. An u10 team would be able to see out the last 7 minutes when 1 up at home. What yesterday showed was that we have a load of chancers who are masquerading as professional footballers and aren't fit to wear the shirt. A lot of them aren't playing regularly (no wonder) and you'd imagine that the chance to make an impression and impress the manager would motivate them but that's wishful thinking. If we're not going to play a full strength team in these games I'd prefer we'd throw in a few youngsters. At least they'd show a bit of heart and the games would bring them on.
We're on about players coming in this month but it's as important to get rid of the likes of Paulinho, Adebayor and Chiriches.

Disappointing to be out of the cup, especially as it's wide open now, but I think Poch did the right thing with major rotation. We have a gruelling run of games and we need our best team in the others. Leicester was the one game worth gambling on. Unfortunately, the gamble didn't pay off. I thought it was a surprinsingly half decent performance considering the line up.

pleasant Co.

I have to agree, the massive rotation was the right call, and in fairness it mostly paid off but by all reports our constant inability to kill games off struck again, and then a bit of a flukey f-up cost us the game.

Of all the upcoming games this was the one I was most ok with us maybe loosing, so long as we didn't get knocked out of the other 2 cups

I'd have taken a defeat next Saturday away to WBA to stay in the FA Cup.

pleasant Co.

Nah, knocking on 3rd/4th place with a bunch of tough games coming up, would sooner drop as few points as possible in the prem.

Would sooner have not lost against leicester of course :P

You don;t really believe that this Spurs team will make the top 4? Not a snowballs chance. Would be delighted to be proved wrong but can't see it.

Devo from Dublin

DEFEAT IN THE EARLY ROUNDS OF THE CUPS ARE MUCH EASIER TO TAKE.

Sugarlumps

I'd agree with Devo, the competition had barely begun. Home tie against Leicester should be a banker though, the cup is unpredictable.

I only saw the briefest of clips, at one point the defense parted like the red sea.
Hoping we don't make a hames of things on Wednesday.
