    Arsenal 6-0 Sheffield United. Carling Cup

    Sheffield were in the Championship (they’d finish 3rd that year) and Wenger trotted out basically a youth team (average age was 19). They proceeded to absolutely steamroll Sheffield. We could have had double digits that night

    Arsenal team with ages in parentheses: Fabianski (23), Hoyte (18), Djourou (21), Song (21), Gibbs (18), Randall (18), Ramsey (17), Merida (18) , Wilshere (16), Bendtner (20), Vela (19).

    Subs: Lansbury (17), Coquelin (17), Simpson (19)

    I have recently decided to declare the Gunners as my team as I’m just getting into the Premier League and the sport of football in general. So yes, anything helps as I’m trying to learn more about the history of the team, the players on the squad, and anything else that would be worthy of knowing
