Sirhan al Sirhan: (external) Revenge is best served in a cup...
Richard: (external) Can someone explain to me why, when they're pushing for the Premier League, would Arsenal even want to advance in the FA Cup?
Objective Kritic: (external) Refs are humans and are susceptible to mistakes - expecting them to be superhuman will only raise undue tension and hate.

Martin Keown - at Emirates Stadium for 5 live Sport
"I see Howard Webb as a top referee. Things happen at break-neck speed. I needed a replay on numerous occasions but he got two major instances wrong. But have understanding - that game was so quick. I didn't think, for example, that Steven Gerrard should have been sent off. For me the referee handled that well."
Webb did well when he chose to give Raheem Sterling a telling-off for putting his hand on him. I think the FA normally demands a public flogging for touching an official.

Match stats Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool
The bones of a fantastic Cup-tie also offer solace for Liverpool. While they were given the runaround in a 2-0 league defeat at the Emirates in November, today they had the hosts on the rack for long periods.
Arsenal scored with two out of their three shots on target.

Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool
Arsenal set off on a lap of honour and are given a standing ovation by the fans. They really needed a result today after last weekend's walloping at Anfield.
When the dust settles for Liverpool, the fact that they now have absolutely no distractions from the league may be a silver lining to the defeat.
Perhaps it suits everyone in a way.

"Neither team really deserved to loose that game. Suarez and Sturridge are sitting on the turf, looking devastated - don't tell me the FA Cup doesn't mean anything to people. That was a good a game as I've seen in a long time."
