heartbreaking for Wycombe, after being 2-0 and 3-2 ahead they concede a goal in the 7th minute of added time to lose 4-3

full round of EPL games in the midweek

Arsenal have 5 first team regulars playing i think and only three out and out reserves in holding, maitland-niles and reine-adelaide, so its an under-strength side but not really a 2nd XI

Wellbeck again. ...2-0!

Welbeck turns provider now. Walcott scores and it's 3-0!

We're literally not playing any of our first XI. To be honest, I'd take this turning into a 10-0 defeat in exchange for having got to Wembley this week!! Couldn't give a dam about this game.

Walcott, Chamberlain, Welbeck, Bellerin, Mustafi. This is still a good Arsenal side, vastly better than our second string rabble.

They have strong squad depth that allow them to put out weakened teams, which are still probably strong enough to beat most premier teams.

It isn't really surprising when even Championship teams put out reserve teams these days.
