FA Cup

Full time: Arsenal 2-1 Burnley

 

Yaya Sanogo has joined Charlton Athletic on loan.

It’s the second loan spell of the season for the 23 year old after a rather unsuccessful move to Ajax was cut short by agreement between the two clubs. He made just 4 appearances for Frank de Boer’s side, and now has a chance to play for a team who desperately need him to be better than that.

 

Arsenal have confirmed that Mathieu Debuchy has joined Ligue 1 side Bordeaux on loan until the end of the season.

The French international had been unhappy with his lot at Arsenal for some time, complaining publicly about his lack of playing time, and highlighting his desire to leave. He’s now got his wish.

 

Arsene Wenger has confirmed reports that Tomas Rosicky picked up an injury on his first team return at the weekend, but denied those suggesting Jack Wilshere had suffered a setback in his own recovery.

 

Arsenal’s defence of the FA Cup will continue with a fifth round clash against Hull City.

The Gunners have so far overcome Sunderland and Burnley at the Emirates as they bid for an unprecedented third consecutive success in the competition.

It’s the third successive season that the teams have met in the famous old competition. The Gunners came from 2-0 down in the final in 2014 to win 3-2 when Aaron Ramsey’s extra-time goal brought the trophy back to North London.


Last season the teams played a third round tie at the Emirates with Arsenal progressing thanks to goals from Per Mertesacker and Alexis Sanchez.

The fifth round clash will take place on the weekend of 19-22 February sandwiched between home games against Leicester and Barcelona.
